Textbooks

Books are a big thing in our household. I love to read and spend most of my free time in my lazy boy with a book. Breanna has also come to love time spent with a good book, so I'm always looking for great deals on books for myself and the kids. One of the places that I've bought books a few times from is called Buy.com, they have a great assortment of books for the whole family, they even have a great inventory of textbooks if you are in need of those. So go check them out, you just might find a place to spend any money that you get as Christmas gifts!

The day after

Whew, I wasn't kidding last night when I said we were having a storm, it snowed and blew and rained and blew now the sun is out but the wind is still picking up quite often. I lost count of how many times our power went off through the night. The cordless phone by my bed talks every time the power comes on and I listened to that quite a few times through the night. Thank God we didn't lose any trees but I'm sure not everyone was that lucky. We still have some snow, so if it doesn't rain we might have a bit of a white Christmas but it is still calling for rain on Christmas Eve, yuck.

So today for my day off I'm trying to get some house work done, I'm going over to visit with June and Wendy in a little bit. June has gone out to get her hair done so I'm waiting till she should be home. Breanna and I'll go over for awhile, then I have to try and remember to stop and get Mom's mail, which I haven't done in forever, then close her PO Box, come home and do some more housework. I still need to go up to my in-laws and wrap but Doug might have to do that tomorrow night, he has to work late tonight and I work tomorrow night, there's not much to do though so I think he can handle it. If not, we'll get it done when we're up there when I get off work on Christmas Eve. We close at 4 so I'll be up there shortly after that. Lots of people think it sucks that we work Christmas Eve but it doesn't bother me at all, everyone on staff works, we take turns on cash, we laugh, carry on, eat and just have lots of fun, there's no way you can be in a bad mood.

Speaking of moods, I'm doing pretty good, the other night I had a good cry when I was talking to my Aunt Barb. Certain Christmas songs can make me cry, when I think about not having any family here at all this Christmas I get kinda sad but who wouldn't. It's going to be very different this year from last, when all plans were made around Mom. Just different...

A snow Sunday!

Good evening folks! Welcome to a snowy Sunday evening in Nova Scotia! I worked all weekend and since it's the last weekend before Christmas it's been a busy one at work. Today was very busy the first few hours since it was calling for a storm tonight. Now it's snowing and blowing like crazy but it's supposed to change to rain toward morning, uckk. I'd rather just have a big old snow storm that stays for Christmas. It's also calling for rain on Christmas Eve, which I hate. We haven't had a white Christmas in so long. I'm hoping that Mom can send us some snow this year.

Bar Faucets

I've been thinking of changing the faucet on our kitchen sink, I have seen the kind I want at a friends house, so I've been searching on-line for the same type. One of the sites that I've found the kind I like has a lot of bar faucets to choose from. No matter what style or color you are looking for, you're going to find it at this site.

Promotional Items

There are many great ways of advertising out there but one of the best ideas is to give out the great selection of promotional items that are out there. With times being as tough as they are this year and for the next little while, you need to focus on advertising as much as you can. Customers only have so much money to spend, so you need to go that extra mile to make sure the money they have is coming to your business.
