How My Two Little Brothers Got Me Into Trouble With The Police
LB2 and LB3 are quite a bit younger than me. Back when they were infants I took them everywhere with me, including work. I had a part time job cleaning two banks a couple of evenings a week. The pay was decent, which was important since I’d just bought a new Mustang convertible. The job [...]
No More Cold Coffee
I hate the way some hot beverages cool off so quickly. At work if I’m in the mood for a hot beverage I drink coffee or hot chocolate. I sip both. A cup of hot chocolate is usually getting cold at ten minutes, coffee a little longer at fifteen. My Mom knew that I like [...]
Val’s And RB’s Night Of Fun – Dinner And Bowling
RB and I recently went on a date, for a little holiday get together for the women in my office. We had a casual dinner at Charlie Browns. It was only the second time I’ve gone out to a restaurant since surgery. I had some tasty chicken that I was eating for five days. Then [...]
Looking For Yoga Equipment?
Two of the ladies I work with are into yoga. One does it every morning, the other a couple of times a week. In my travels for Secret Santa shopping I noticed that none of the stores had a large selection of yoga equipment. What to do? Looking online I found a company with what [...]
Life Fone For The Holidays
The holidays are upon us. Things seem busier everywhere, at home, out in public and even at work. For those of you that don’t know, I work in the medical field. I can’t tell you how many times emergency services are called to check on people. Relatives of the elderly worry when they haven’t heard [...]
Review Of General Foods International French Vanilla Cafe Decaffeinated Coffee
I’m not supposed to have caffeine as part of the post surgical diet I’m on. At work they drink regular coffee so I had to find an alternative. General Foods International makes French Vanilla Café, a flavored sugar free instant decaffeinated coffee that I decided to buy and bring to work. The French Vanilla Café [...]

Remember to update
Earlier this week I went in to work and was told by one of my coworkers not to turn on any computer of I’d get a virus. There was a lot of concern over the Conficker virus this week. It’s always good to be cautious but she was being just silly. Thanks to the hard [...]
BigHeartCards review
BigHeartCards is a company that offers greeting cards online and allows shoppers to choose a charity to receive 10% of the profits they make. In case you’re wondering, I don’t mean electronic cards – I mean real greeting cards. The site is attractive and easy to navigate. When you register for the site you choose [...]
Listen to the moneytalk
At work we were informed last week that there is a mandatory meeting on 03/25 for all employees regarding our health insurance. People who don’t attend will have no health insurance as of 04/01. People who do attend will be learning of changes to our coverage. I realize there isn’t anything I can do about [...]
Just another Manic Monday
Today was a crazy day. The boys both had off from school for the holiday. Hubby actually had word last night and my Mom was having a surgical procedure today so I couldn’t leave for work until hubby got home. The upside? I got to drive his truck, which has heat and defrost. The downside? [...]
Hubby’s pounding the pavement again
For those that missed it, hubby got a job in November. He was hired for full time overnight. Since his first day there he’s told me about the promises they’ve broken to him. In November they let some people go. In December they cut his hours to four nights a week. Then three nights a [...]
