Golfing!

Posted on : 04-08-2011 | By : Sassymom | In : My Disorganized Life

My husband is a golfer! It is a sport that was passed down from his dad. My hubby recalls many great weekends during the spring, summer and fall when his whole family would spend the day on the golf course. He entered into a few tournaments and received golf trophies and medals!

My husband hasn’t golfed regularly in years. His hobbies changed up a bit but he still loves a good golf game! He even gave me his mom’s golf clubs in hopes that I would pick up the hobby also.

I haven’t yet but perhaps in time I will pick up golfing!

To those who have golfers in the family — where do you buy the best golfing products?

Thinking Back to School already

Posted on : 09-07-2011 | By : Sassymom | In : My Disorganized Life, School days

My my how the time flies! Can you believe we are already past the 4th of July and steadily moving to the middle of the month? For most of us, that means only 1-1/2 months until the kids go back to school!

One item to purchase that is on everyone’s list: back-to-school back packs. Many times, I will purchase a back pack and immediately write my child’s name in it right away in case it gets lost or stolen at school. This year however, I am thinking that I may try to personalize the back pack a bit and get my child’s name embroidered on it.

HDTV – all the rage

Some of us cannot afford cable television. In that case, we turn to regular television that we can get with an antenna. Did you know that you can get indoor hdtv antennas for your high def television?

Even if you can’t afford cable television, you don’t have to suffer with low quality basic cable on your High Definition television!

My husband and I invested in an HDTV antenna and were able to get extra channels as a result! :)

Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse Logo

I have some lowe’s coupons to pass out here! Just click on the link and you will find some good deals! I have printed out a few of the coupons myself — especially the one that allows me to save 35% Lowe’s Werner Ladder sale! :)

I love Lowe’s. Anytime my husband and I need something for our home — whether we are doing a construction project or looking at replacing light fixtures, we go straight to Lowe’s.

Last year, when we first bought our house, I was at Lowe’s almost every other day for two weeks straight buying paint supplies and asking questions about home projects! The employees were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Good customer service always wins me over — regardless of price. However, in the case of Lowe’s, they offer both competitive pricing and great customer service! :)

What has been your Lowe’s experience?

Mom is also a short order cook!

So, I am leaving on a week-long trip with the kids next week. My husband is already fretting about what he will eat while I am gone. It seems he has already figured out that he will be eating sandwiches and anything else that is quick and easy to make. Meaning, he wont get a hot meal until I return.

Of course, I plan on cooking a little and freezing meals for him before I leave. Goodness, I almost feel like I need to start ordering restaurant supplies along with a cute little chef’s outfit so that I can be his short order cook from now until I leave for vacation. :)

Weekend warrior!

One of my favorite cousins has graduated from high school this past year. So, we are heading on a trip up north to see her and party the weekend away! Her grad party is on Sunday and I am just so excited for her!

Did you have a graduation to celebrate this year?

Have you checked out www.wholesaleinsurance.net, yet? If you are looking for a good selection of insurance options at great prices, this would definitely be the place to go!

You enter in a bit of information, give your current stats (height, weight, and age) and with the click of a button you have a list of insurance companies to choose from with ratings! That means, everyday, average Joe and Jane users such as yourself rates these companies and writes reviews! It is a great thing to have options and reviews so that you can make the best choice! :)

Awards and trophies

Posted on : 27-05-2011 | By : Sassymom | In : My Disorganized Life

I have a thing for trophies. I truly enjoy looking at them! I remember when I was younger, I would go through my dad’s trophy box and see all of his awards for baseball. It was truly inspiring!

I was not a sports person. I enjoyed doing the artsy things at school like drama, choir, yearbook, and such. Though I did receive awards for those things. Unfortunately, they don’t had out trophies for the artsy-genre.

Did you get any trophies in high school? If so, what for?

Designer upholstry

One of the biggest challenges I face when wanting new furniture is the design, texture and color. At times, I will find a decent style but the texture is off. Other times, I find the right texture but I can’t find the right color or design to go with it. That is why designer upholstery fabric is so magical! Designer fabric can truly help you turn your living space into your personal haven!

Where do you buy your furniture? Have you ever had your furniture re-upholstered?

High risk?

Posted on : 05-03-2011 | By : Sassymom | In : My Disorganized Life

Sometimes in life, things happen that we don’t anticipate. Sometimes, we don’t realize that we are high risk for things. It is a good thing that there are high risk life insurance policies available.

So, if you are sick or have a high risk job, you will be able to afford life insurance for your family. It is nice to know that if something happens, you will be covered and most importantly, your family will be covered! :)

Trophies and awards for kids

Posted on : 26-12-2010 | By : Sassymom | In : Interesting Sites I've Found, My Disorganized Life

When I was young, I remember playing basketball, softball and then I became a cheerleader (when I got into junior high). Each sport had tournaments and at the end of the tournaments we received sports trophies (if we placed in one of the top positions).

When I helped my Uncle move a few years ago, he had quite a few boxes dedicated to his baseball trophies. It was really neat to see.

I think trophies and awards are a great way to let kids know that they are doing an excellent job and excelling!

New car — new quotes for insurance

Posted on : 07-12-2010 | By : Sassymom | In : Interesting Sites I've Found, My Disorganized Life

My husband and I are considering a new car within this next year. Of course, with a new car comes new car insurance quotes. We need a car or vehicle that is fairly inexpensive to insure.

I am wondering if perhaps we should get an SUV or another minivan? I actually like the idea of getting another minivan.

What kind of car / vehicle do you drive? How is your insurance rate on said car or vehicle?

New faucet

Posted on : 07-12-2010 | By : Sassymom | In : Interesting Sites I've Found, My Disorganized Life

I am currently pricing up kitchen faucets. I am going to re-do some parts of our kitchen that I feel is unfinished. The faucet we currently have is a little bit too short to be completely effective (this is of course in my general opinion).

In addition, I am looking for a deeper kitchen sink. I would like to have something with two equal-sized sinks (with disposal).

This is on my wishlist for projects this year! :)

Outdoor Christmas Decorations

This weekend my husband is putting up outdoor Christmas decorations. I am so very excited! We have some really pretty lights that I purchased a few years ago and some huge Christmas ornaments to decorate our front porch with!

Our neighborhood is equally as festive! Many lights and decorations surround the houses around us! The kids love taking a drive to see all of the amazing Christmas decorations!

How much are diet pills?

How much are diet pills? What is the general price range?

Well, the general price for diet pills depends largely on what kind of pill you are taking as well as the amount of said pill brand. Of course, my recommendation before taking any diet pill is to do your research on the internet. Find the best product as possible for the best price!

If you use diet pills, where do you get them and which kind do you prefer?

Oh SNAP

Recently, on our way back from our chalet in the alps, I accidentally sat on my husbands glasses. I am trying to convince him that it was a blessing in disguise as he was always whining about how they always fogged up while trying to ski down the mountain. While shopping for a replacement at the local cafe, I stumbled across these Julbo Explorer Glacier Glasses which claim to be anti-fog glasses. I really hope this helps, and makes him happy come christmas day when he opens them

The importance of testing for lead paint

0

Posted on : 27-10-2010 | By : Sassymom | In : My Disorganized Life

When my husband and I were house-hunting, we came across many charming homes that were quite old (built before 1970). I have heard that any home built before 1970 needs lead testing. This is because before 1970, paint had a lead base to it. As we know by now, lead is pretty harmful and is poisonous. Therefore, lead testing is invaluable to your child’s well-being. :)

So, if you are thinking about buying a home that was built before 1970 or have a home that was built before 1970, it is important to get an epa approved lead test kit.

Do you have an older home (built before 1970)? Did you get it tested for lead? What were the results and what steps did you take to correct the issue?

Best cigar?

I know some women smoke cigars. I am not one of them. However, I like the smell of a good cigar. If that makes sense? My father smokes cigars. My mom bought him a Padron brand cigar as well as a humidor to store them.

When I was younger, I don’t remember my dad smoking cigars. It is a habit he picked up later in life. I know that he enjoys it though.

Do you have anyone in your life who smokes cigars?

What is the best multi-vitamin for children?

Posted on : 27-10-2010 | By : Sassymom | In : Health, My Disorganized Life

Do you have any opinions on what is the best multivitamin? Do you give your kids vitamins? Do you feel the vitamins help makeup for something they aren’t currently getting in their diets or do you like the multi-vitamin because it adds extra vitamin C and other immune-system boosting goodies?

I give my kids vitamins. I think that vitamins are vital to them. Especially at this stage in life because they can be quite picky at times and I worry that they are not getting the proper complete nutrition.

Burning belly fat

0

Posted on : 22-10-2010 | By : Sassymom | In : My Disorganized Life

We moms struggle on how to burn belly fat efficiently. It’s the one area after baby that does not go back to where it once was. Depending on how you gave birth (c-section or natural), depends on how your body returns back to normal. With a c-section there is always going to be a little c-section shelf unless you do exercises to tighten and tone the area. Of course, this goes for all bodies after pregnancy. Unless of course you are one of the lucky ones who has a body that goes back to normal after pregnancy ;) .
