The right saw for the job

Because of the wind storm the other day, we had branches all over the place. Our next door neighbor's plastic garbage can was leaning against our front door no garbage in it. But it was a big surprise when I opened the front door to see it there. We had some tree limbs outback that had cracked. They needed to be cut down. My husband went to home depot and bought the Ryobi 18 volt rechargeable chain saw for the job instead of using our gas one which would have been a lot more dangerous.

Free People

One of very few I finally found a really great site. Not many places are carrying extra small these days unless you go to the children's department. And it's nice to find a place that carries a lot of that size. Free People is the place for me to go. The spring collection I found there is really brightening my life up. The colors are fantastic.

Fast food

You know it's nice to grab some fast food once in a while so at least I don't have to do the cooking for the evening but you know they should call it fat food instead of fast food. I can't believe a whopper meal actually contains more than the average person needs in an entire day. Unbelievable. Well, I guess if we're going to eat fast food we better start looking for less fattening fast food.

Diabetic socks

My father-in-law once said being a diabetic can be horrible. Trying to remember all the particular things on his diet were so frustrating. He got so frustrated with testing his blood two or three times a day. My mother-in-law took over making sure his blood glucose was right. The day my mom came home with the diabetic socks she thought dad was going to go through the roof. But after he tried them on and found out how comfortable they made his feet and ankles feel he loved them.

Tree spirit dress

Simply beautiful. I've always loved the positive and the negative type colors of Asian clothes. Reds, blacks, whites. Have you seen the latest at the pyramid collection? They have a bustier type dress that's white and purple and the purple is actually a picture of tree limbs coming up from the bottom of the dress reaching up. It's called tree spirit. The number is p87-594 if you like to look at it.

Fitness equipment

It seems like over the years we've bought quite a few pieces of fitness equipment. My husband still enjoys our multi-station work out equipment. The rowing machine is my favorite. It exercises your arms, your legs, your lower back and your buttocks. I consider this my all in one machine for myself. Some of our other machines over the years we've sold because they don't seem to take care of the workout the way you would expect it.

Understanding temperatures

It was real fun taking the snowmobile for a trail ride last weekend. The only thing is that we didn't know any temperature above thirty five degrees is really too warm for operating the snowmobile. Unless there's fresh snow on the ground to cool off its radiator underneath. So we kept on going off the trail to go in fresh snow to cool down the motor. And then back on the trail to continue our journey.
