New Bathroom Tiles

Posted on 3rd April 2012 in Home and Garden, Home Improvement, Internet, work

I have to admit that the website MetalStainlessSteelTiles.com has some really nice mosaic metal tiles that would look good as the bathroom back-splashes in my parents master bathroom that they are getting ready to tear apart and completely re do in the very near future. They are having to make that bathroom easier for the two of them to get around in, complete with a new hot tub spa that is handicap accessible for my dad to use to get in and out of with little or no effort.

They want this new bathroom to be easy to keep clean as well. So I believe having this nicely decorative metal tile will help in that area, it is easy to clean and it will help brighten it up as well. I’m sure I’ll be assisting my Dad with some of the work that this will all take, but I don’t mind. I rather enjoy working along side my Dad, we don’t get to spend as much time together as I’d like and we get along famously so I look forward times such as this to hand with him when I can.

Bike Ride

Posted on 3rd April 2012 in Entertainment/Fun, Friends/Family, Life, weather

Last Saturday a group of my friends and I spent the day cruising the roads on our bikes. We had been planning this outing since last winter, and it finally came to fruition. There were about fifteen of us on our Harleys, and we all had our ladies riding behind. We rode for a few hours and stopped at a roadside diner for lunch, and then rode home again using a different route. It was a beautiful day for a ride, and we all had a great time. I hope we can do this again next summer too!

Teen rated video game

Posted on 3rd April 2012 in Entertainment/Fun, Friends/Family, Life, Opinion, Shopping

Sandra was telling me that her ten year old son has asked her if he could use his allowance money to buy a video game called Uncharted 3. She asked me if I had ever heard of the game, or played it myself. I told her that I have not played that game before, but heard that it is a Teen rated game, so I would encourage her to steer him in a different direction at this point in time. I know that there are a lot of parents that let their pre-teens play Teen rated games, but I think that it is a mistake.

Womens lingerie

Posted on 3rd April 2012 in Entertainment/Fun, Life, Shopping

I laughed out loud when I was watching television last night. I think that it was a preview for a Law and Order television show, I’m really not sure. Maybe it was a preview for Bones. I watched both of them last night while I was washing up the supper dishes and sorting through the mail. Anyway, the preview was of two of the detectives searching the cab of a tractor-trailer and one of them found a piece of womens lingerie in the back. They held up the lingerie with what looked like a pencil (so as to not get their fingerprints on it) and said something to the effect that they might find some useful evidence of a victim on the lingerie. That’s when the truck driver, who was a big burly man claimed that the lingerie was his, and pulled down his trousers a little bit so you could see the ribbons and bows on his underwear. Didn’t I laugh!

Guard your cash closely

Posted on 28th March 2012 in Friends/Family, Life, Money/Finances, Opinion, work

During the past week I’ve heard of two incidences of family members losing cash and it drives me crazy. My own mother mailed cash to one of my nephews in a birthday card, and the birthday card was never received. What drives me crazy about this instance is that she has done this before and lost the cash, and we had a long talk about how she should never put cash in the mail. And to top it off, she has seen my nephew several times recently and she could have simply handed him the birthday card instead of putting it in the mailbox.

The second instance is when my niece left her rent money, which was in cash, in her purse at work. The employees have to share lockers, so several people had access to her purse during the day. Her money went missing, and so she claims that she has no rent money. I cannot understand for the life of me why anyone would leave large amounts of cash in a shared locker at work. Why she did not keep the money in her pocket, or in her locked car stashed under the seat or in the trunk or glove box I have no idea at all. It was hard biting my tongue on that one, I’ll tell you that!
