Grow lights

7 Apr 2008 Filed under: Etc.

accessdiscounts.us looks like the perfect lighting sight to direct my husband to. Every time I turn around he is griping about having to try to find a replacement light for this fixture and that fixture, and not knowing where to start looking for them at. Well, accessdiscounts.us has a lot of different lights, including grow lights, wall packs, barn lights, garden bollards and more. Oh, and they also have your standard residental lighting, if you’re looking for the basics from a cheap online retailer. :)

Air gun shopping

7 Apr 2008 Filed under: Etc.

Do you need air rifles, air pistoles, airsoft guns, blank guns, pellet guns, or ammunition or accessories? If so, then I recommend you visit airgunwarehouse.com. I don’t know a lot about guns and I definitely don’t know anything about operating them, but I know a well stocked, organized and detailed website when I see one!
We have three guns that my grandfather gave to my husband. He (my husband) has been wanting to pick up some more ammunition and a case for one of the guns… I’ll have to tell him about this site.

How it’s done around here

7 Apr 2008 Filed under: Etc.

I don’t know if I have mentioned this before, but I live in a rural area. The country. The suburbs outside of the suburbs. Middle of nowhere. Or, as I call it, the boonies. I’m four and a half miles from the nearest gas station, five miles from a grocery store, eight miles from Target, and ten miles from Wal-Mart. When you live in the boonies, you live with rednecks, and their love for beer, Confederate flags and electric airsoft guns. It’s okay though: so long as you stay off their property and keep your hands off their trucks, wives and dogs, it’s all good!

Titanium wedding bands

7 Apr 2008 Filed under: Etc.

I used to work in fast food and retail settings. During my jobs in those settings, I obviously interacted with a lot of people, both men and women. I had the opportunity to see lots of different mens wedding bands. Some men sported plain, solid gold wedding bands. Other hads fancier ones, with engravings and tiny diamond chips. Then there were the men who didn’t wear any bands at all. I never asked, but I often wondered — why? Ring sizing isn’t that expensive, and a wedding band isn’t that bad to wear!

Shopping for baby gifts

6 Apr 2008 Filed under: Reviews

You can find some really cute baby clothes at sandboxcouture.com. I’m looking at their site right now, because I’m trying to find some cute baby clothes for Ryan to wear this summer. I picked up seven or eight shirts and three pairs of shorts at Target, but I wanted to get him a few more things. It’s so hard to find baby boy and toddler boy clothes that aren’t character, sports or camo themed!

Just a little pet peeve of mine. I couldn’t stand receiving baby gifts that had no thought put into them. By baby gifts with no thought put into them I’m referring to the gifts we’d receive that woud be an outfit clearly for the other gender, or a totally inappropriately aged toy, or worse still, a can of formula. The formula was a big peeve because everyone knew I planned on breastfeeding. The formula, minus its “just in case!” note, went to a local women’s shelter.

It’s so easy to pick out some nice, thoughtful baby gifts if you just put a bit of time into it. Find out what the mother-to-be is having, or if she’s unsure or you can’t, go for unisex items (white, yellow, peach, light green). Find out what she really wants to have. If it’s a more expensive item, see about chipping in with others to cover the cost without breaking your budget.
