Snow End Of March 2009

I had PB’s tuxedo out for the hospital gala’s – a huge event here in our small town. As small business owners… and just about anyone living here, we feel that it is very important.. that we are involved in charitable work. But at the end of March.. yesterday ..we had snow on the ground.. !!!!!! *slap forehead* .. ! when is the warm coming..?? I promised myself to write this down.. so i know.. and wouldn’t hope too much for the sun.. and warm next year. The weather is crazy here.. one day warm.. and one day snow.. or raining. Suxs big time..!

Jewelry & I

I’m sure you know by now that I’m a picky shopper when it comes to buying jewelry. For one, I have to like the design and secondly the price has to be right. Like any woman on earth, we pride ourselves in knowing where and what to get at the right time. For Designer Jewelry that we like, I need to make sure that i can justify spending the money since it is not a necessity but a luxury and I’m sure you know where I’m coming from.

I also like to pick unique pieces of jewelry and not those that are mass produced because it can be quite embarrassing to be seen with the same piece of jewelry as someone else in a cocktail. Holsted Jewelers have a wide range to suit anyone’s budget, plus they offer free shipping and guarantee each and everyone of their pieces of jewelry. You can’t go too wrong with a place that had been doing jewelries for more than 30 yrs eh.

Kate’s After Christmas Present

We went grocery shopping yesterday.. and instead of getting groceries.. we got 3 books for chloe and 1 for myself.. and a diamond heart shape necklace for Keegan – Chloe’s babysitter. Yes.. we already gave her “ang pow” for Christmas.. but i felt she deserved something more.. because she is a really good kid. Keegan helped me out a lot when i had my operation 6 months ago.. and after 4 yrs working with us.. i really think she is by far the best kid in town. Thank you .. Keegan.

9 Yrs & First Ring

9 Yrs in Canada.. and this is the first ring PB bought for me from here. Why..?? all these years.. i never found anything i liked here. I love our Chinese gold.. and the diamonds are not of the best cuts here. For someone who had bought the Lazare diamonds for earrings.. i’m sure you can understand why i don’t think other diamonds.. are just not for me. Yes..! i’m fussy with my jewelry .. and i rather not buy things .. that are sub-standard. I’m not high class, just don’t feel a need to waste money on something i don’t really like… i’m sure you can understand it. Why I bought this..?? it was an unusual pattern here.. you don’t see many of this kind here.. so i bought it. A grocery trip.. ended up.. with PB a few hundred dollars poorer . .because we bought Keegan something too.. muahahahahahah!!!

PS : Chloe took this picture… because she wanted this ring as well.

UGG Boots won’t Make you go Ugh!

Photobucket

Coming to Canada and enduring such horrid winters can make one feel quite frumpy and dowdy, if you know what I mean. 6 months of winter here in Nova Scotia sure is hard for just about anyone, but for some in Nunavut like my dear friend Aida, I am sure she can appreciate why I only buy Ugg boots. These are boots that won’t make me or others looking at me go “Uggghhh..!!”. After all it was Jennifer Aniston who wore them first and I love how fashionable she is.

Well of course there is more to it than that, they are made of sheepskin and originated in Australia. Don’t be fooled though because there are lots of imitation Ugg boots out there and you really don’t want those because wearing boots made of synthetic leather is the worst. Your feet smell and it gets pretty sweaty and hot after awhile. One place to look for information about Ugg boots and how to avoid buying fake ones is at http://www.buyitrighthere.co.uk/, do check it out before buying them so you will know how to take care of your Ugg boots and also learn what you are paying for and why they cost more than other brands of boots. Plus, find out if your man would love a pair too.

Wholesale Prices For Electronics

As the woman of a man who loves his electronics/games & toys, you know that special occasions can be really hard and trying just to get him something decent and affordable that he doesn’t already have. After all, he thinks he knows where to get the best stuff at the best prices. But come on, we women can be tech savvy too, right? This is the 21st century we are talking about here and we should be just as good at, if not better, when it comes to buying the best stuff at competitive pricing.

Online Shopping for electronic goods has never been easier now that I’ve found LightInTheBox.com. Newsmy is a China-based company that carries more variety of goods than anywhere else I know online. From car electronics to digital AV, media players, cellphones, laptops and the works at wholesale prices. Check out their media players starting at $0.99, pretty awesome pricing right? Track all your shipments online and their warranty is good for 1 year.

This company, although based in China, is a global online distributor and has been serving customers from different countries for many years. With more than 100,000 products I know that one can find just about anything and everything here. And the best part – unbeatable prices! So don’t let the man tell you you don’t know where to buy great electronic stuff/gadgets.

Shop, Confess & Win

When I shop, i can sometimes go a little crazy! don’t believe me..?? ask the man.. and he will tell you the things i do to hide my shopping spree. Well.. that was a long time ago, i learn to control myself a lot after becoming a mother. But then I also have online shopping that makes shopping so easy even when it is -17 out there in the winter months. And then I will be so guilty after spending all those extra money.. and try to justify it to myself. I know you know where I’m coming from.

Well, here is a chance for you and I to win big in this contest, that way we don’t have to feel guilty for what we buy eh. This is what you do, if you ever bought something and hid it from your spouse, your mother or even your siblings, just take a video or write it out like a story, of what you did, what you bought .. and fess up.. and you stand to week $1,500 every month and a grand prize of $15,000. Of course, only the best video/story will win.. so come on and give it your best shot and sign up here.

Christmas Gift From Australia

My girlfriend from Australia sent a UGG Mayfaire that i had wanted to buy for ages now .. and it came as surprised to me.. because I didn’t know she was sending it. I cannot thank her enough for it.. because it was not cheap at all.. and I couldn’t get it over here.. in Yarmouth. For those who don’t know what a UGG is.. they are boots made of sheep skin and absolutely comfy and keeps you warm during winter and during the holiday season. I love it..!! And she doesn’t want me to have her name printed here.. she’s shy wor.. 🙂

Moms Should Wear Funny T-Shirts

Being a mom is not easy.. as you can all see and to lighten up, moms must all wear funny t shirts. Why you ask me..?? pretty simple.. it can get stressful.. when the kid doesn’t wanna listen to you or the spouse kinda dirty the place or even when the babysitter doesn’t show up on time. So with a funny t-shirt.. it can work actually kill 2 birds with one stone, get the message across.. or make things less stressful for you. So i’m all for moms to wear funny t-shirts on bad hair days.
