Neighbor

This guest post from Werner Rogers

Have you ever had a friend that you felt like you had known your whole life even though you haven't? That is how I feel about my best friend who also happens to be my neighbor. Well, she was my neighbor first and then she became my best friend. Sadly, she is moving in one month and I just don't know what I am going to do without her right next door. Where will I go for my morning cup of coffee after the kids get on the school bus? That will be so lonely drinking my coffee and starting my day alone. One of the greatest things about having her right next door is that it isn't so lonely since we are both stay at home moms. I guess I will just have to call her every morning! She told me she got her gas from ATCO gas alberta so she could have more money for her long distance phone coverage!!!! It won't be the same as being able to walk next door, but at least we will still be able to talk.

Reality shows

The Author of this post is Beverly Montgomery

I am a reality TV junkie! I love most all of them. It is really hilarious when I have a moment in real life and think, ‘this would be the most perfect reality TV moment! If the Kardashian sisters have a show, I don’t see why my sister and I don’t have one! I mean we are just as ridiculous and funny, just not at glamorous. We also usually have five kids running around us or hanging on us while we try and have an adult conversation. I also like the reality competition shows. Top Chef and America’s Top Model are two of my favorites. Although I know nothing about either, I love to watch the drama that usually ensues on both shows. A friend of mine just told me about a new reality show that I might like: The Rachel Zoe Project. My friend told me she is a designer and we are both pregnant. I am going to go on http://www.tvbydirect.com/ and find out what channel it comes on. I think it will be hilarious to see a pregnant lady walking around in designer clothes and heels!

Family time

Author: Isiah Williams

My entire extended family has Direct TV Raleigh now I swear, even the aunts and uncles in North Carolina. It is so funny that we all ended up getting the same TV service. In a way, it makes every house feel a little like our own. I know the husbands all enjoy it very much. It means that no matter where we go for the holidays, the men will be able to watch their favorite sports games and teams. I know my husband has said that he is really happy about that. Of course, it does not faze me all that much. I do think it is good all the guys can get together and bond over something whenever we get together. The families do not get together as much as they should. I think it is because we all live so far apart. My husband’s brother and some of his family live in North Carolina. We live in Pennsylvania and his parents have moved around a bit recently. It makes it hard to get together when we are spread out and far apart. So when we do get together, everything we do seems a bit more precious.

Baby shower

Thanks to Darwin Barton

Last week I went to my first co-ed baby shower. It was really fun and I think my husband would even admit that he had a good time. The food was really good and they served alcohol, which I thought was a little strange. Another thing that I thought was kind of strange was that they had a football game on the entire shower. The host of the shower had direct tv and there was some big football game on, so I know my husband was relieved that he did not have to miss it. I guess I am just used to baby showers that include dainty food and silly shower games. However, after having attended this shower, I will have a whole new outlook on hosting a shower. I thought that the idea of having a barbecue dinner for food was great. Also, I will never again suggest playing silly shower games because nobody seems to enjoy playing them anyway. I do not think I would suggest having a football game on, although this is one way to get males to come to the shower. The mom-to-be did open her gifts, but the only ones watching were the girls who could not pull their spouses away from the football game. I hope that the next baby shower I host will be co-ed.

All this WORK!

Who would have thought after all this time I’d get back into art? I love being the “master of my domain” which is why I decided to go into business for myself but after years of consulting I finally decided opening an art gallery was where my heart really was. Anyway, I’m happier than ever and things are really looking up – business is booming! I’ve gotten to do a lot of the fun managerial stuff on my own like looking at small business xo and calling an accountant and dealing with the Small Business Administration and I’ve learned a ton along the way. It’s nice being able to really take charge of my situation and deal with things as they come to me and not have to ask for permission to do it. My clients love the space and I just love getting to do art all day long – it’s pretty much the ideal space for me and I love every minute of this new career I’ve carved out for myself.

I love Watching the Tyra Show

Thanks for the article from Laura Ryan I Am Not Really A Couch Potato, But When I Do Get The Opportunity To Sit Down In Front Of The TV, I Really Enjoy Watching Tyra, And Y Kids Enjoy Watching It Too. Tyra Always Talk About Issues That Everyone Can Relate To. Whether You're A Teenager, In You Mid 20's 30's, Or Older, You Will Always Find Tyra Talking About Topics That You Can Relate To. However, She Attracts More Of The Younger Crowd Simply Because She Looks Like A Young, Hot Model That Everyone Wants To Hang Out With. The Best Part About Tyra's Show Is That She Allows Her Viewers To Post On Her Website The Things They Would Like To See On Her Next Show. She Makes Sure That She Lets Her Viewers Know That She Has Their Interests In Mind, And This Is What Really Makes Her Show So Successful. The First Tyra Show Began In 2005 And my Family And I Have Been Watching It Since Then. My Husband Hates Talk Shows, But He Seems To Like The Tyra Show Just As Much. The Show Normally Lasts An Hour An All Of Them Are Aired In New York City. On Weekdays, During The Midday, We All Sit Down To Watch It On channels that WWW.satellite911.com. I Normally Send The Kids To Their Room Or Outside To Play So That I Can Watch It In Peace.

Technology changes everything

Technology changes everything in the sense that home appliances, tvs, gadgets, and the like become more advanced, highly developed and sophisticated. Just like when we got our lcd tv, it changes our thought of a happy viewing experience. I like digital tvs because they are way better in resolution. They are flat and thin. It doesn’t really occupy space compare to normal televisions. Most lcd tvs can be mounted on the wall or on the table. I remember when we got our lcd television, it was such a great experience. And you know what, I feel like I can never go back to old traditional tv. When you have LCD tv, everything is clear and perfect. There’s a vast difference. You won’t see any grainy looking stuff on your screen. It looks perfectly clear and seems like you are at a movie theater. For affordable and reasonably priced digital tv, check out, savebuckets.co.uk. It is a great site that offers a wide array of low-priced tvs online.

perfect Christmas gift

When kids think of Christmas, they see Santa Claus on their minds. I remember when I was a kid, I get excited whenever I see Christmas decoration and Santa Claus in the stores. Typically, they let the kids sit on Santa’s lap and take a picture. At that time, we got the pictures right away because they were Polaroid pictures. I got a wish that I could take a picture with Santa Claus again. And I would send it to my parents who live on the other side of the world. Anyhow, I want to send them pictures this holiday.

However, I was glad to come across with Ceiva. What is Ceiva? With Ceiva, I can share and send pictures from my computer or camera phone to my family and friends anyplace in the world. They don’t need any computer to receive pictures from me. To see how it works, I uploaded a recent cute picture of mine on Santas Lap video. It was fun and fast! (See photo below) I thought of sharing this video to my friend in UK. I think she'll like it. You know what, I have the chance to win $500 by joining the “Got a Wish” sweepstakes. And right now, Ceiva digital photo frame is on sale with free shipping. This is a perfect Christmas gift.

Dymo Labelmaker

One of the things that I have to get done around the house is organization. My husband doesn’t really have time to do all the filing. Since, I like filing, arranging and organizing, I would like to accomplish this mission soon. Organizing makes things easy to find and locate, right?
