New Business Phone Systems

December 2nd, 2011

I got word today that I have been place in charge of finding the right business phone systems at the office, come the New Year. That is when a lot of changes will be happening around there. This is really good new all the way around, we will be getting a much needed business phone system and I’ll have the opportunity to learn a lot about what is out there these days for business phone systems and when I get us hooked up with a new one I’ll know everything that one would need to know to operate it. I’ll look like the hero in the office!  LOL

Luminox watches

November 30th, 2011

Finally heard from my mother-in-law about an idea for a Christmas present for her this year that she will actually enjoy and appreciate. She is always the hardest person to buy presents for and it always becomes a last minute scramble in order to have something in order to hand over a nice gift on Christmas morning. So this year I’m armed with the knowledge a few weeks ahead of time and now I am online looking at various Luminox watches trying to find the perfect one that will put a big ol’ grin on her usual grumpy face.

Christmas Wish Lists

November 6th, 2011

Taking the day to research some of the gift ideas and suggestions that I have on my list of Christmas presents that I seriously need to get a start on. My sister is wanting a pair of fox racing shoes for women, since spends most of her time on the run. My daughter really wants some new foam floats for pools (she calls them floaties) that she just discovered over the summer while taking swimming classes at the Y.M.C.A. and which she wants to continue doing come next summer. And what to get my mother is still a mystery at this point, sigh…..

The only guy in the family that I know what they have their wish list is my son who has been looking at some electric bb guns for some time now and pestering the crap out of me to buy for him for either his birthday, which is in December, or as a Christmas gift. I’ve discussed it with his Dad and we have decided that now would be an all right time to get him such a thing. He is a good kid and pretty responsible, but I still get a bit anxious when I think of him with any type of gun, bb or not.

We Have Opinions

November 5th, 2011

Maybe I missed my calling as a professional critic. Although, I must say, my sister is even more critical than I am. The difference between us is how we present our opinions. I try to be soft with my approach, often telling a short story that illustrates my point.I really dislike confrontations and would much rather work toward solving a problem than getting into an argument.

My sister is more straightforward than I am, and has often been called a control freak. But I say, she doesn’t shirk from issues and that she manages to get things done. So, bravo! big sister! It takes all kinds of people to make the world go round, and my sister and I are working hard to make everyone else perfect.

Vote Vote Vote

November 4th, 2011

My two sons both registered to vote about a month ago and have been waiting for election day to go vote this year. We’ve had a lot of political discussions their entire lives and we pretty much are in agreement. I’m so proud that they take this responsibility seriously.
