One last entry about my new washer and dryer....

When we went to look at the set, we went specifically because there was a BIG sale, and this set was $500 off!!! The sale was at Dufresne, but we wanted to check out what Sears has and the price in order to compare and also because Sears tends to have great service when/if problems arise.

There was ( Read more... )

On Sunday we went out and purchased a new washer and dryer. Not just ANY washer and dryer, but a FRONT LOAD!!! We will finally be part of the elite ( Read more... )

I have often thought that it would be SO much easier for various things if we could remove our head (but still be able to see from your body) when needed.

For instance, I know how to cut hair, fairly well I might add. I can cut other people's hair (but I really don't like to, so PLEASE don't ask) but then I have to go to a salon to get mine cut. ( Read more... )

Why is it that certain people are so against replacing the toilet paper roll?

It seems that at least 8 times a day (ok, fine! I MAY be exaggerating a little) I find a toilet paper roll empty in my house.

I needed to stop in at the school and make sure that the volunteers knew what had to be done, and to make sure that they were comfortable. I couldn't stay due to having the little ( Read more... )

HEY! My eyes are no longer crusty, but I also haven't worn contacts in over a week. Now I am slightly afraid that my contacts MAY be infected, and don't feel like re-infecting my eyes unless I have somewhere important to go ( Read more... )

I have a cold.

My head is stuffy and my nose is runny.

Which begs the question... why hasn't anyone come up with a nose tampon?

Ok... I know it sounds gross, because the word tampon immediately sends our minds to a region of the body which is much further south. However the word TAMPON originated from the French back in the mid 19th century. It is a ( Read more... )

Yesterday morning I woke up super congested and one of my eyes was GLUED shut. I mean I couldn't open it!!!!
I had to pick away the VERY thick crusty layers before gaining any semblance of control over my right eye.

Side note:
This MAY be partly my fault... I haven't had an eye exam for over 3 years. I am due. But booking an appointment is a pain, ( Read more... )
