Due a pamper session

I might head to the salon argyle texas on Monday, I have a much needed day off work and I think I am more than over due a pamper session. I might invite a few friends along and make a day out of it

Singing Bowl

My mum asked me to help her find some Crystal Quartz Singing Bowl earlier and I said sure, then she started reeling off a list of things she did and didn’t want it to be like and I had to admit I had no idea what a singing bowl was! hehe.

Turns out they are a sort of bell that people use to help with meditation, yoga and the like.

Sounds right up my mums street, and as soon as I knew what it was I knew where she could get one — SilverSkyImports.com, a site I have used in the past to buy mala beads from

You won’t get me in a tent!

I’ve never been a huge fan of camping, even as a kid, why would I want to sleep in a tent outdoors with all the elements and bugs to deal with? ugh.

I’ll stick to an actual bed indoors whenever possible.

Having said that I am OK with motorhomes, if I absolutely have to be a little outdoorsy then I can definitely live with staying in a motorhome – you get to enjoy all the outdoor elements but also have a solid roof over your head for the night and a proper mattress.

Our friends go camping all the time and always invite us a long, you’d think after several years of being told ‘No’ they’d give up asking but they must think I will relent one day and say yes because they still ask every single time. They’ll learn one day – I am not about to change my mind any time soon

Casino game comparison sites

When I am in the mood for a casino game or two I usually hit up a comparison website that quickly and easily tell you information on some of the best sites out there to play on. You can also find out about great deposit bonuses this way

I love casino games

I ended up playing slot games all night, oops. I didn’t plan to play casino games online at casinoscandinavia but that’s just how it ended up happening. Don’t you just hate it when you have 1001 things to do but then get distracted by something and before you know it the night is gone? I tend to do that…erm…most nights, anyone would think I was a natural born procrastinator

I can see clearly now

I think it’s about time I got some new glasses as the ones I have now I have had for at least ten years! Thankfully at the time I got some pretty plain ones because I know from experience buying ‘fashion’ glasses is dumb – as they were so expensive I definitely wanted some that were going to last! I didn’t quite expect them to last 10 years though.

Now that I have lost weight they actually don’t fit me any more though, it’s not really somewhere you think about losing weight but I suppose it makes sense – as you get less fat on your face you are going to need a smaller size.

I found a site where you can buy them for as little as $8, I couldn’t really believe my eyes because my last ones cost about 50 times more than that.

How times change hey? Now, which to pick

Amino Acid Treatment

A friend of my was telling me about the success they had had with Amino Acid treatment for their daughter. It wasn’t something I had ever really thought about before but she has certainly given me food for though – they took her to a treatment center in Prague back in September last year where the process only took a few hours to complete and within a matter of just few months there were major signs of improvement in many areas including coordination and and attention span. I can’t wait to catch up with her again to get an update about how her daughter is getting on now

Why me?

Whenever my mom rings me in an afternoon I know she’s about to ask me to look for something online for her. She usually calls in the evenings if she just wants to chat! I have told her a million times I don’t mind helping her out but that google is really easy to use and she could find things out in 2 minutes on her own rather than waiting a few days for me to get around to it for her – does she listen though? Of course not.

Oh well, what are mothers for if not to nag you after you’ve long since flown the coop?

This time I was correct and that was why she was calling, she wants me to find some great medical insurance plans for her and my dad and as I did it recently for my husband and I she says she figured I would know the best place to look – which is true actually, so on this occasion I will let her off for not googling herself!

Furniture shopping!

Have I mentioned recently how much I loved shopping for fixtures, furniture and fittings when we renovated our house last year – it was so much hard work but it was also a dream come true because I always wanted to be an Interior designer growing up. I love every minute of it, I got to combine my desire to be an interior designer with my love of shopping – or more specifically bargain shopping. I used lots of sites like www.nobodybeatsmitch.com to make sure I was getting the best deal on every single item I bought – from our king sized bed to the towel rack in the bathroom.

We spent an absolute fortune on the whole thing that’s for sure, but we also saved an absolute fortune through savvy shopping.

I am almost sad that we completed every thing because now I still see great offers and want to buy them or come up with new design ideas that I can’t use haha

Thinking of branching out

My mum started using ebay about 6 months ago now, I have been on ebay since 2005 and she’s already got twice as much feedback as me! She sells perfumes, usually the small sample sized bottles that she gets cheap – she’s hardly making a small fortune but it’s enough for it to be worthwhile for her. Now she’s thinking of branching out though and seeing if there’s anything else she can get her hands on at wholesale prices that will sell well.

I have suggested jewelry as I always see it doing well so have been looking for some sources for her, I have found a few great jewelry wholesale accessories sites and have just forwarded her the links.

I think that jewelry will fit in well with her account as well as it ties in with perfume quite well. Hopefully it will work out for her and she can start making a small fortune
