Lifes Like That

I am so proud of myself.  Last night I went out shopping for school supplies and school clothes.  The reason why I’m so proud of myself is because usually I put this chore off until the last minute and then end up paying outrageous prices.  So, I thought this year I would try something different and get a head start on my shopping.  I’m happy to announce that I got it all done.  I was extremely pleased with the prices so I just kept buying and buying.  Any other year that I’ve gone out and done this, I usually end up paying unreal prices and don’t always get the products that I want because I leave it so late.

Since this worked out well for me this year, I’m thinking that I will probably try to do this again in the following years so I can save myself a bit of cash as well as a bit of frustration.

As many of you are aware, a couple of months ago I was involved in a minor motor vehicle accident. Now at the time I thought I didn’t do any damage to my car so I in fact thought that I had gotten away without having to have any Car Repair Costs. But unfortunately this wasn’t the case. Thankfully I had an adequate Car Warranty that covered most of my costs. I honestly don’t know what I would have done if I had to pay these expenses out of my own pocket.

Because of my experience with the accident and the following car repairs after it, it got me in to doing some reasearch on different car warranty plans and especially on how I could obtain a Continental Warranty. So, through my research I was able to find a company at continentalwarranty.com where I could obtain one of these warranties at a very reasonable cost. While visiting the site, I discovered that they offer a 30 day money back guarantee, I can get a quote directly from their site and this warranty would be honored by mechanics from the US and Canada. And of course, if I have any questions or concerns, they are only a phone call or click away.

No one wants to get into an accident and have to use the coverage that they pay for. But wouldn’t it be a nice feeling to know that you have the proper coverage available if and when you need it? Also you will get great satisfaction knowing you have the best possible coverage available to you at the very lowest of prices.

I am so embarrassed to say this, but my sneakers have holes. I never ever buy myself anything new and that goes for shoes as well. I honestly can’t tell you how old my sneakers are, but their pretty old and now my husband is threatening that he will buy me a new pair if I don’t. Well I love him to death but I don’t want him to purchase my footwear so I have decided it’s time to take the plunge and buy a new pair of sneakers. One type of shoe that I really like the looks of is Air Jordan shoes. I love the style and color of them. Now hopefully I can find a pair in my size and then I will be able to let you all know that I broke down and bought a pair of shoes for myself.

As far as the ones with holes, I’ll still keep them and maybe use them for gardening or swimming. They still have some life left in them and maybe if I continue to use them I won’t feel so guilty for buying something for myself.

Since we have been going camping quite a bit and going to different camp sites, I needed to purchase a bathing suit.  Normally all I would swim in would be shorts and a tee-shirt but at camp sites they don’t allow this type of attire in their pools.  So, I went on a search for a perfect bathing suit.  I have to tell you all that this search ended up being a very extensive search.  I went to four different stores before I was able to finally purchase one.  The reason for this is because most of the stores I went to only carry size six and up and I’m a size two.

But success was had this weekend even though it came at a very hefty price tag ($45).  So now I’m able to  go swimming with the kids in the different pools that they go into.  So I guess the price wasn’t too difficult to pay.

When I applied for my first credit card, I was highly confused. There are so many companies out there competing for my business. Trying to decide which company to go with was a very difficult decision to make as they all sound so similar in their offerings, but they do offer something different. So I wish that I had found this site over at creditcardsearchengine.com which could have help me in my decision making process. This company helps consumer by doing all the research on different credit card companies and their different options on each card. Some of these options include Balance Transfer Cards, low interest cards, and reward cards. You can read all about the services they provide in their latest press release. So, the next time your thinking about applying for a credit card, I would highly suggest that you drop into this site and see all the information they have collected and analyzed for your benefit. It will save you a lot of confusion in your decision making process.

Holy crow!  Just gotta tell you all that I was just down the road to do some banking business and I have never seen traffic like I seen today.  I realize it’s the long weekend and there will be a lot of people out and about, but I figured that if I left fairly early I would be able to get ahead of the rush.  Well, after seeing the amount of traffic that I did I have come to realize that everybody else had the same thought.  I’m not a fan of driving in traffic, so this was a very nerve racking experience.  Thankfully when we get going in the car off to our camping trip tomorrow my husband will be driving so I won’t have to have this nerve racking experience two days in a row.

Just in case I forgot to mentioned it, I HATE TRAFFIC!

One of the most expensive components of operating a printer is the usage of  Ink. My computer alone takes five inkjet cartridges and it seems like they all run out at the same time. Isn’t that always the way? So, I have been actively searching on the Internet where I would be able to find a site to purchase these cartridges that I need. So, I am happy to report that I have found a site at www.inkers.biz where I will be able to purchase all the ink and toner I require.

Over at inkers.biz they supply ink, inkjet cartridges, toner  and toner cartridges. They offer high quality and compatible generic products at lower prices then the name brands. All their cartridges are 100% guaranteed against defect for one year. So, the next time your in need of purchasing ink or toner, why not drop by this site and purchase your products at a reduced price.

I’m a big fan of graphic designing. Being a fairly crafty and artistic person myself, I can appreciate all the hard work and motivation that comes from this type of activity. So, it’s actually quite sad that I am really not any good at designing. So, this is why I enjoy so much checking out different types of blogs and websites that display awesome graphic designs and drawings. I have just been visiting a site over at Designing my World and I have to admit that I really enjoyed seeing the posts and pictures on display over there. It just amazes me how talented this author is and if I could just learn one little thing from him concerning designing, I would be a happy person. But, creating and displaying images like those on his page, is not something that I could do so I’ll have to live my graphic designing dreams through him.

Man, I really need to get a life.  For the past two months my husband and I have been actively searching for a camping trailer (we found one and made the purchase this weekend, thankfully).  So, it should have not come as a big surprise to me when the other night I had a dream about camping trailers and blogging.  That’s right I woke up from my sleep with thoughts of myself posting  a blog post on my blog about camping trailers.  So, now not only are my days filled with thoughts of blogging and trailers, but my nights seemed to be interrupted with these thoughts as well.  So, hopefully my dreams will become normal again as we did purchase a trailer so I won’t need to dream about the purchase.

I wonder what I’ll be obessessing and dreaming about next???

This time of year when the kids are finishing school is a time for reflection.  You look back as to when you were finishing school and graduating from high school.  I think this year I have been doing more reflections than normal because this year my oldest son should have been graduating from high school.  But, unfortuantely he miss a couple of his grade 12 credits so he will not be graduating this year and will hopefully be walking down that isle next year.  It does make me thing though of the time when I was all excited for that day to finally arrive.

But, if I knew that what I know now, maybe I would have stayed in school a bit longer myself.  No, just kidding.  I wouldn’t change all my past experiences for anything in the world.  But, it sure nice to think back to those years and remeber them with fondness.
