My mother has been hinting about wanting a new watch and with Mother’s Day right around the corner I’ve been looking around online to see if I can find a nice one to give to her without breaking my bank account. Bluedial.com has a great selection of all types of watches. I like that they offer free 2nd day shipping, free sizing and the fact that they accept PayPal is a big plus for me.

Seiko Kinetic Watches has some nice looking watches that I think would look good on my mother. She is very old fashioned and very petite so I have to be careful with what I get for her. I like the look of this one and blue is her favorite color. The fact that it is on sale for only $127 is very tempting!

My cousin’s girlfriend Bri has been raving about how much she loves her new magnetic bracelet.  She said that it has helped her arthritis tremendously!  So I started doing a little bit of research on magnetic therapy.  I couldn’t believe how many ailments magnets are supposed to help! From headaches, backaches, insomnia, stress, to diabetes!   Bri told me that she bought her bracelet at the billythetree.com website.  So I’ve gone online to check them out. 

Their prices certainly seem reasonable enough, and they have a good shipping and satisfaction policy.  I think I’ll order one for myself and see if I notice any difference in how I feel!  Sometimes I wonder if these things “work” because of the placebo effect, so I’m always curious, yet cautious.  What is your experience?  Do you have any magnetic jewelry?  Has it improved your life?

Lately I’ve noticed when I go places, that there do not seem to be any clocks within easy eyesight.  When I go to the doctor, dentist, or even shopping, there are no clocks to be found!  I find that quite annoying!  I don’t always remember to wear a watch, and it is a pain in the neck to have to pull out my cell phone to check the time every time I need to know what time it is!  I’m sure that they have been advised by some expert that it is better for their business if their customers have no idea what time it is, but that really aggravates me just the same!

At least more and more businesses are signing up for DIRECT TV for Business.  Being able to watch Commercial DIRECT TV while I’m stuck waiting somewhere helps to keep me from being aggravated about extended wait times.  The biggest issue that I have, though, with DIRECT TV Business is that frequently the television show that is being broadcast at the time is some sports channel.  I’d rather watch the news than a sports game!

My good friend Judy knows how much I love animals.  She emailed me a link to a fantastic video about a herd of white deer.  I found it so interesting, I’d like to share it with you.  I hope you find it as interesting as I do!

Today I decided to try my hand at baking some banana bread.  We had three over-ripe bananas that no one wanted to eat.  They were pretty black!  Well, I hate to throw away food, so I looked up a banana bread recipe and decided to give it a try.  Most of the recipes I found only called for two bananas, but after some digging I found one that called for three.  It was a lot easier to make than I thought it would be!  It sure smelled heavenly baking in the oven!  It was hard to believe I had to let it bake for a whole hour!

Well, it was worth the wait – it came out perfect.  I let it cool for a few minutes and then sliced off a hunk, slathered on some butter (yes, real butter) and gave it a try!  A big thumbs up, but I think I would have enjoyed it better if I had thrown in some nuts!
