Outer Banks vacation

We're so jealous sometimes every other year my daughter and her husband go on an Outer Banks vacation. We always know when its coming up because they reserve our truck. It's a special little truck. They only made 4300 of them. It's a 1999 Isuzu VehiCross. This truck goes anywhere including getting them to their camp at Outer Banks. We love seeing the pictures that they bring back. One of these days hopefully we'll have the time to go.

Lego Blocks toys

My husband says when he was growing up one of the most valuable toys to him was his Lego blocks. He looks back and explains how much engineering he learned from these simple designs. And the hours of fun he would have designing houses then making them out of Lego Blocks to impress his mom. We have carried on the tradition with our son. A lot of toys come and go but Lego Blocks are here forever.

Best eye cream for dark circles

Just like a car it gets older and always in need of repair. I thought I was covering everything by eating the right foods let alone how long it took me to find the proper vitamins for my system. I've invested a lot of money into facial creams and body washes. At least I'm nice and silky soft. I found the other day what I think is the best eye cream for dark circles. This product amazes me on how fast they disappear.

Birthday preparation

Here comes the long day. Setting up for a birthday party starts at least two days earlier looking for a present. It's hard these days looking for a present for someone that's older. Buying a card is fun but just putting a gift certificate inside is kinda impersonal. But for the short time that you have you may have to. I'm also making dinner for everyone so it's going to be stressful few days of preparations.

Austin weight loss

I started out I was a little over weight not much in my teens considering all the junk food I ate I was doing fine. I met my husband to be for a while we went out to to three nights a week. Between eating all the elaborate food and having a couple of beers, my weight started to add up on me. So I needed a little trimming down. I shopped around and found austin weight loss. I had tried a few things getting to this point. The programs worked for a while but didn't in a long run.

How we celebrated Halloween '09

Halloween is one of our happy times of the year I think its because everybody seems to love to dress up. We had a lot of fun walking around our road house to house collecting candy with the kids. It's really our son's first year at three years old to know whats really going on. At least he knows that people give you cho-co-late :-). After the first two houses, he's got the system down. We pulled him and his sister around in the red wagon. Being it was dark out we attached two battery lanterns one to the front one to the rear of the wagon. So cars going by could see us. Up the hill from us Doug, our neighbor goes all out every year building a scary ghostly hunted house. It starts in his driveway, the path leads you to a big U-turn in his garage. Then out in the front lawn. Friends of his fill-in as monsters and ghost to scare you. His wife is even dressed up as a witch. There are lots of scream at Doug's house specially when they try to grab you. Poor little Jarred his first experience with the monsters! ahhhh.... and screaming "Where is the way out Daddy? Where is the way out Daddy?"

Finance job search

It's been twenty plus years since my husband has had to search for work. The company that he been with had finally closed their doors. We didn't really see the economy going down hill until it hit our house with the loss of his job. He had never made up a resume' in his life.
Finance job search resumes' are tough to do. We sent them out. The trouble with making up resume' ahead of time is that everyone has to be a little different focusing on the exact criteria of the new company. My husband's skills are intense he crosses over many different skills over the last thirty years.
