I’d love to win one of those magazine makeover contests. I wouldn’t be too fussy – I’d appreciate a kitchen or bath makeover, or just a beauty and style makeover would be fine too! I’d love to have some part of my house re-done for free, where the before and after photos appear in the magazine that sponsored the makeover. I’d love to have some solar energy panels installed as part of the makeover process (on the house, not on me!) I could use a little bit of excitement like that in my life!

If you live in a community that is family friendly and full of young and vibrant children you may be among a community of individuals that is committed to not only seeking justice for those that are victims of crime but that are incredibly dedicated to the prevention of crime. I myself being a parent of three young and lively children have made it a personal goal of mine to make sure that my home and my neighborhood is safe for my children to run around in and play in without being threatened by those predators that can make a neighborhood or home seem unsafe. My children have the right to be out and about and play with their peers in the place where they were born and I will make it so that they can have a safe place to play. Of course it is of utmost importance for us adults in the neighborhood to make this possible because an environment like this will not just materialize by itself. One of the most important ways to protect the home is with a ADT home alarm system that can be set when we are away from the home and while we are sleeping. I myself and every one of my neighbors has installed a home security alarm system as a first step it combating neighborhood crime.

This is such a cute video that I found on Youtube! I love cats!

Everyday I watch the satellite TV, which I got from www.Direct.TV, with my son and see the same commercial for Pull-Ups. I absolutely love this commercial simply because of the reaction my son gives. There is a little boy just about my sons age who is sitting and playing with his toys when he realizes he has to go potty. He drops everything he is doing and runs to the potty. My son is also being potty trained, so when he sees this commercial he mocks the little boy on TV and runs to the potty. I think this commercial will help my son remember when he has to go potty. I wish that I could record this commercial and play it over and over so my son gets the point of the potty. He is at the point of mocking people, so this could be a good influence on him. It reminds him that no matter what he is doing he must stop and use the potty. I wish there was more commercials like this. They really go down to the child’s level and pinpoint their key audience.

I’ve noticed lately that I’m having more trouble seeing clearly when I drive at night, so I have to make an appointment to see my eye doctor soon.  I can remember when I was a child I was jealous of the many movie stars that made wearing eyeglasses look so glamorous!  I can remember telling my father once that I wished I had to wear glasses!  He told me that was an awful thing to wish for!  Well, he was right; wearing glasses is not as wonderful as I had daydreamed about as a young girl!

Eyeglasses are way more expensive than I think is reasonable, and I think that buying them at the optician’s office is a consumer rip-off.  There are so many other places that a consumer can go to and buy eyeglasses that cost less money!  You can even buy eyeglasses over the Internet at ZenniOptical.com if you can convince your eye doctor to give you your Pupillary Distance.  I’ve bought my glasses at other places before I found out about the great prices at Zenni.  The only problem that I would have with buying glasses from them is that I found out that they cannot accommodate prism in the prescription, and that is something that I need.  Just my luck, I can’t use them!  Sigh…..
