Free Ringtones
2007-06-26 18:38:00
One thing I'm always looking at is the ringtones on my phone. My goal is to eventually get a specific tone for each of the people in my phone book. My only hold back on doing that is the cost. It's now $2.99 for each ringtone. But, now there's a website where I can get Free Ringtones
! Best news I've heard all day!I'm browsing around on the site and they have a lot of the popular songs from the popular artists like Hannah Montana, Carrie Underwood, Fergie, Justin Timberlake, Shania Twain and a ton more! You're bound to find one that is just what you're looking for! There are different categories like Country, Kids, Pop, Rock and more. There's even a section for movie and TV themes. I found Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I'm going to get this one and put it on my phone for when my cousin calls. She dressed up one Halloween as an Oompa Loompa, so every time I hear that song, I think of her. Who can resist Oompa Loompa, Doopity Doo? Oh, but I just found another fo
Digital Camera
2007-06-26 18:34:00
We're probably going to be looking for a new digital camera in the next year, probably with our tax return. I would love to get a Canon like Eric's, but I do believe it's a bit out of our price range. I tried to win one from a photo contest, but now that I think of it, I haven't ever heard from them. Guess I didn't win, huh? LOL I guess, though, if I did get it, I'd have to have Eric show me how to use it, so I'd have to visit Cyndi again!! Hmmm, I may have to save my pennies!

African Hunting Safari
2007-06-26 18:11:00
Oh my goodness, this looks like a blast! How would you like to go on a all inclusive traditional Africa hunting safari? Go check out the pictures in the gallery, they're phenomenal!I love the Kilamanjaro Safari
at Disney's Animal Kingdom, but going on a real safari would make the Kilamanjaro Safari look like a, well, ride at Disney! It would be so neat to go on a safari led by a guide who knows what they're looking at and where they are and you can't beat the all-inclusive part! You get to stay in first class housing and eat multi-course meals after being out hunting the animals. All license and trophy fees are included. I'm loving that you don't need to remember all the little details....they're already taken care of for you!

My Garden
2007-06-26 17:54:00
Holy cow! I soaked (or so I thought) my garden last night. Fast forward to 3:00 today when I got home. I looked outside and my corn stalks looked all shriveled up, the pumpkin and zucchini leaves are all limp. Good grief, it looked like I hadn't watered my poor garden in a week! So I went out and soaked it again. Later tonight I'll go check it and see how "deep" the water got down.

Photo Holiday Cards
2007-06-26 17:45:00
Every year for our Christmas cards, I always take a family picture or a picture of the Princesses. I've been browsing holiday greeting cards and like what I see. I'm liking that you can put more than one photo on a greeting card. I usually have more than one picture I really like and would like to share with my family and friends. This solves the problem. I can put my favorites all on the same card. Great idea!Oh neat! They even have gift card stickers. One thing I can see myself using them for is when I make the cookies for the neighbors. I can just stick your gift card sticker on the top of the cellophane and my neighbors get goodies and a card all in one. Great time saver for me. I can't wait for Christmas season to order them!

My Princesses are Spoiled
2007-06-26 17:41:00
Holy Hannah! My girls are spoiled rotten! We've had a little income setback so we're watching every penny. One of my princesses keeps hounding me to go shopping and to get the new Hannah Montana CD. When I say "do you have the money?" I get the huffy pouty girl. Ok, rant over. ;)

Big Brother 8
2007-07-03 00:00:00
Oooooh, I almost forgot! The premiere for Big Brother
8 is on Thursday. It's a train wreck, but I watch it anyway. I just saw a commercial for it that said one houseguest will be at the mercy of I'm assuming the viewers and they have to do whatever the viewers want and they can't say no. LOL That could be funny to watch.

Sleeping Beauty
2007-07-02 23:31:00
Youngest Princess fell asleep on the couch tonight at about 7:30. She's been squirming around a bit, so she's getting uncomfortable. I guess I should carry her to the bathroom and get her to bed. She's been so tired lately with swimming lessons and all, plus I think she's hitting a growth spurt. She had to come to my office today and then come with me to run some errands for work. She was a perfect little princess and we had a good time. I love days like that!

You Won't Ever Spend Too Much Again!
2007-07-02 23:08:00
When online shopping, I try to remember to look for an online coupon code. Just the other day, I was shopping at http://www.disneyshopping.com and forgot to look for disneyshopping coupon codes. Of course, after I hit the "place order" button, then I remembered, but it was too late. If I had had this nifty little Firefox plugin, it would have reminded me. I'm also going to sign up for the newsletter that will send me the coupon codes for the stores I use, or I can pick all stores, right to my inbox. So if you're looking for lands end coupon codes or maybe a code for Amazon.com, go check out RetailMeNot.com. Pretty cool way to save money!

We're thinking of taking the Princesses to the drive-in tomorrow night. They're showing Ratatouille and Pirates of the Caribbean. I haven't seen the first two Pirates, but I'd probably fall asleep before it came on anyway. LOL

Great Weekend!
2007-07-02 21:14:00
We had a great weekend! It started on Friday when we went to my aunt and uncle's house to swim with my cousin and her little girl. It rained on us, but we didn't care because we were already wet. LOL We had pizza and visited and then came on home. Saturday, we putzed around and got our quads ready. Sunday, we left early and went to the coast to go quadding. We had a blast! The weather was great and the princesses did a great job riding.

Stunning Jewelry
2007-07-05 17:33:00
I'm not much of a fancy jewelry person. I like my jewelry simple. In looking at this website, I could easily fall in love with many of these pieces. I love the white gold or the platinum over the yellow gold. I really like this and this. They are gorgeous!The site even has some testimonials from customers, which I think is a great way to get a feel for the customer service from a website. If you're looking for a beautiful dress and diamond pendant, check out the site! Well, at least check them out for the diamond pendant! Undoubtedly, you'll find something you can't live without!

Fun Photo Art
2007-07-09 18:38:00
I have been thinking about changing the computer/craft/family room. I want to do something fun! Look at all the fun things you can do to help you in your home decorating. Aren't they fun?The website is really easy to use. You just select the style, upload your picture, preview it, order it and you're done! They're also able to enlarge a photo and put it onto canvas. I want to do a few of the popart style designs of the princesses in this room. The bright colors would really brighten it up and it would just be fun!

Craig's telling me about how on a break today, the guys sat down and made a conversion chart between their office and The Office. Everyone he's told me about fits the characters perfectly. I'm going to have to see if I can do that with my office. How funny!

I can't really say I have a "favorite" yet, but after a few more episodes, I'm sure I'll have an opinion. LOLI wish I had Showtime right now. so I could watch the live feed show at night.

Access Your Computer from Virtually Anywhere
2007-07-12 18:01:00
My former boss used to have two offices. They were 50 miles apart. Not very convenient when you're at one office and the documents you need happen to be at the other office. He finally looked into being able to have remote access on both computers, no matter where he was at. He found it to be really helpful if he was meeting with a client and needed to make changes quickly and forgot to take a disk with the original on it. He just left both computers on, logged in with his password and was able to access all his files.It was really affordable too! It was only $4.95 a month. Much cheaper than having to drive 50 miles one way to pick up an important document that he needed right away. It was really simple to setup too, since he didn't even have to ask for my help, which shocked me as I was his "computer tech".

My goodness it's hot out there! Yesterday we hit 102, so far today it's only 88. Brrr, better get out my parka! Today I got to work and the A/C went out yesterday afternoon. UGH! It was such a stuffy sauna in there. We had fans going all over the place. I finally turned off the light in my office. It got fixed about noon or so. Phew!Oh, and my office is getting moved. I'm now going to have an office with a window! Woohoo!
Household Decor
2007-07-16 22:00:00
Are you looking for cute household decor? I was browsing Online Discount Mart, and they have many categories like office decor, bathroom accessories, kitchen accessories and more. There's even a "Tips & Ideas" section. I definitely could use some tips, can't you?I'm loving the Snoopy stuff. Look at this adorable Snoopy garden figurine. Wouldn't he be so cute in a flowerbed? I'm going to redo my backyard at some point and I think I'm going to have to get him.Guess what? Now, through the end of summer, all online shoppers get 10% off their purchase! Can't beat that deal!

Out of Shape
2007-07-16 21:58:00
Man am I out of shape! My mom and I took the Princesses to the pool today. It was a great workout! I wish I was able to do that every day, as I'd be in shape in no time!On the weightloss front, I lost another pound this week. I also think the batteries on my scale are going because it's acting weird. I hope the lost pound isn't a consequence of the batteries. LOL

Baby Shower
2007-07-20 09:52:00
My cousin is pregnant with her second girl. I'm so excited! Her first daughter is just a doll! She just turned two in April and already talks so well. She calls us Auntie Kelli and Uncle Craig. I think she's going to love being a big sister! I'm sure someone will throw her a shower. If not, I may consider doing it!Looking at baby shower decorating themes is fun! I know what I'd like, I'd like the Pooh's Playful Baby Shower
Theme, but since my cousin's husband is Hawaiian, I'd go with something like the Bahama Breeze Baby Shower
, which would also work great if I was throwing a luau birthday party. I love the little "Hawaiian shirt" invitations. Aren't those clever? I also think the Red Wagon theme would be great if we didn't know if it was a boy or girl. I just love that little red wagon!
Thank Goodness its Friday!!!
2007-07-20 09:43:00
Yay, it's Friday
! Except, today's going to busy, busy, busy!Princesses have swimming lessons, then I need to run to Target, then to Costco to pick up Craig's prescriptions, as well as pick up some food items, then need to go to the grocery store. Somewhere in there, we'll have to have lunch. I should pay bills at some point today too. Later this afternoon, I'm helping my dad put the new carpet in his truck and putting the seats back in so that we can use the truck tomorrow for all of us to get up at the BCOD to go quadding. I'm tired already.
