Smelling good is an art form

Sometimes you run across a person that smells so good, you wonder what fragrance they are wearing. Then you wonder why it is that you can't seem to find that perfect fragrance for yourself. I have definitely had that problem. Some people have found exactly what perfume to wear that makes them smell so unbelievably good, while the rest of us must stand around at the tester counter being sprayed with all kinds of things in hopes of finding that "perfect smell." Everyone has one but it takes some people a lot longer than others to find it. Then of course, there are the people who never find it, because they don't look hard enough or they don't really care what perfume they do or don't wear. I think it is harder to find that perfect perfume if you don't have much left in the budget. Especially in this economy, it is crucial to find the savings for every aspect of life, even your smell. I like to go online and browse for my perfume needs. I don't ...

The Trouble with Tony

I'm sorry Tony!  I know you would be winning races right and left if I was just able to sit and watch but I can't because of band practice!  Hopefully if we do good at our first shows we will have a Sunday off and then, racing fun will happen!

The big day

Everyone knows that 3 of the most stressful life events are getting a new job, having a baby and moving.  Being familiar with all three of these life-altering events, I would have to say that, by far, the most stressful of the three is definitely moving.  In the days before my daughter came along, I found myself without a stable living environment for quite some time, moving around like a vagabond.  Each time, it was so stressful and hard to deal with on any organized level.  I definitely could have used some professional help in that area. Today I came across a site that has exactly what you need to make "the big day" go much more smoothly. Of course, there are three main ways to move.  One can do-it-yourself move, by hiring a van and doing all the gruntwork on one's own.  For a less involved amount of belongings, this is a good, inexpensive way to relocate.  If, however, moving heavy furniture is not an option, one can always hire a man and van com...

Cell phone review

Here's something I haven't done yet..reviewing a cellphone..So here goes: I recently purchased a CECT P168.  For those of you unfamiliar with that particular type of phone, it's an "i-clone" or a cellphone that looks and feels like an iphone, touch screen and all. I had to say it's a really nice phone, it even has the same wallpaper as an iphone and it's the same size, shape and approximate weight.. As for features, it has a camera, videocamera, mp3 player and other similar features.  It handled my MMS messages with no problem once I entered the correct settings.  AT&T happily obliged with that one.  The texting area for SMS was nice and I had no problem typing in the letters.  Apparently, with a firmware update, the P168 texting keyboard will go full size but I haven't got the equipment to do the firmware upgrade (software upgrade). All in all, I really like this phone.  Unfornately for me, I have a defect which makes it impossible to keep it.  I ...
