WW "Retired Books"

One thing that is cool about where I live now, is the library system. We have access to I think like 13 different libraries, in surrounding towns.

My daughter needed a book for her reading class at school, so we looked online and found the book. It was located in a library we hadn't been to yet. We went there last week and found the book. We looked around and it is a pretty cool library. They also have a good DVD selection.

Here's something interesting I found:



There was some shelves of books. If you can't read the sign above, it says "Retired Books, Looking for a Home, Please Help." 

I never heard of "retired books" before. These looked like perfectly good books to me. But hey what the heck so far I've taken like 6 books from this. And I get to keep them and not worry about returning them on time (which I'm kinda bad at.) Well next time I go there, I'll look for some more.

Meet blu: The perfect alternative to cigarettes

Hi guys. I want to tell you about a really awesome product, I received recently. It is an electronic cigarette.

When I saw that I could review one of these, I jumped at the chance. I felt like this would be a perfect alternative to cigarettes, for my husband. That is because it has no ash and no smell. And you can enjoy more freedom with this. Let me tell you that it is an electronic cigarette from blu eCigs.

When we got the package in the mail last week from bluCigs, my husband was at work.  I thought I would leave it for him to open up, when he got home. He has been working the late shift, and got home late. So when he got home he opened it up and read some of the instructions. He was pretty excited about it. And wanted to try it.

I went to bed. And I guess it didn't take to long to charge. (it comes with a standard wall charger and a USB Charger - which is cool - so you could even charge at work on your computer for example) Well anyway, he must have really got a good first impression of the blu Electronic Cigarette, because he woke me up a little while later, to tell me so!

So far he has really been enjoying the freedom of the electronic cigarette. He can smoke in the car and it doesn't smell like an ashtray. And I actually have been enjoying that as well. He also has been liking not having to go outside to smoke. Before he would have to go outside, since I don't like the smell in the house. But now he can smoke right inside, because there is no smell.

We noticed this one night when we were watching some movies at home. Usually we have to pause every so often for a smoke break, but he was able to just smoke right in the house, with this  Electronic Cigarette. It was actually really cool for both of us. He told me the other day, he has been using it at work too.

We received the blu eCigs starter kit. And they can be as little as $49.95. And there is a variety of flavors to pick from. There is Vivid Vanilla, Cherry Crush, Classic Tobacco, Magnificent Menthol, Pina Colada, Java Jolt and Peach Schnapps. I think he has tried the Peach, Classic and Menthol so far. He told me the other day, he particularly liked the Magnificent Menthol.

And the good news is when he runs out of cartridges, he can buy more at over 60,000 locations. I checked the blu eCigs locator, and found several places right around our area, that sell the electronic cigarettes, and the cartridges. So that is really cool.

So if you are interested in trying an alternative to cigarettes with a no ash and no smell experience then check out blu eCigs.

My Kranich's Jewelers Wish List

Hello everyone, I was perusing a website recently. I think I am going to start making up a wish list of things I would like from it.

Since Valentine's Day, and even my birthday are coming up soon, I have been looking into getting some jewelry. For example I could really use a nice watch. I saw some beautiful ones on Kranich's Jewelers. Like the one pictured below. Isn't this lovely?


I would also like a new ring. I was checking out the amazing designer ArtCarved rings. Like this one:



I want my husband to check out Kranich's ArtCarved rings also. So he can get some ideas for my wish list. Don't you think that is a good plan? Between the two of us I'm sure we'll be able to come up with some fun ideas!
