Shopping for a new camera

  • Posted on January 11, 2012 at 2:04 pm

Lately I have been looking at various cameras. I need a new one, but there are so many to choose from, that I’m not sure exactly what brand and make I want.

I personally hate buying a camera without trying it out first, but that of course is impossible at most stores I’ve gone to.

I’ve always disliked digital cameras because to me, there is a slight hesitation before a photo is taken, at least in my opinion. The kids ruined two of my cameras and now I’m having a hard time deciding what I want, that will suit me.

Garage storage space

  • Posted on January 8, 2012 at 7:41 pm

Today I had to go into my husbands garage to find some tools I needed. It is a total mess. His birthday is coming up and I’ve decided to buy him garage storage cabinets. I don’t know how he finds anything in that garage. He says he knows where everything is, but I seriously doubt if he really does. The kids go in to find something they ask to use, he tells them where to find it and it’s not there. Poor kids spend a great deal of time trying to find anything in there. I think my husband does also.

He has commented at times that he would love some steel storage cabinets to put his valuable tools in, even though he has some really nice tool chests. They are jam packed though, and he does indeed need more room to store things. The garage is his domain, but I think it would be so much easier for him to work in there if there were some kind of organization.

Garage cabinets are exactly, in my opinion what he needs. I think he is a hoarder when it comes to his garage, but I’m not going to tell him that, since it IS  his garage. He doesn’t tell me what to do with my kitchen. I think if I bought these for him though, he would like a gift like that.

Procrastination

Procrastination is one of my main weaknesses. I put off going to the grocery store today when I should have gone. I just didn’t want to spend my Sunday going from store to store to find deals. And actually the prices of groceries depresses me. I just feel like dealing with it. I’ll go tomorrow.

Really cool titanium rings that last forever

  • Posted on January 7, 2012 at 7:30 pm

I had never heard of Titanium rings before. When a friend of mine was getting engaged, she came to my house for tea and showed me rings that she wanted, because she thinks her boyfriend was going to ask her to marry him. It’s about time, is what I feel. They have been a couple for nearly nine years and are so much in love and right for one another. My friend Eva is a person that likes the unique and unusual, so she decided to come to me to tell her what I thought about what she wanted…just in case.

I know she had talked to her boyfriend about Tungsten Rings before, also which I wasn’t familiar with until she showed me what they looked like, and I have to admit I fell in love with them. I’m already married of course, but I would love to have a band like the one she picked out. Or at least similar to one like it. It’s beautiful!

Eva told me that the rings have a lifetime warranty, which is a lot more than mine has. There is also a lifetime refinishing warranty on them. When I look at my rings, and some of the scratches on them, I think this is great that the company has this.  The rings she picked out that she wants to show her boyfriend are beautiful. So, now I know what titanium rings are. It sounds and looks like my friend found what she has been looking for!

Are my lists finally finished?

It would be great to have all my shopping done for once early. I’ve stuck to my lists and so far so good. Of course it doesn’t help that I keep adding little things I’ve forgotten. I am one of those kind of people who think of things at the last minute too. But, so far so good. Hopefully I won’t be doing the mad dash shopping on Christmas eve like I did last year, for some items the kids discovered they can’t live without. If so…it’s resort to, “Give them the money” perhaps. :)
