Phone Plans

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Straight Talk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
I began to see the light about exactly how much I was spending on those cell phone service plans.  It didn't take me long to realize that I needed a plan I could control and have things limited to my needs.  My finances are considered "fixed income", so therefore I must have control over my spending.  I found that the only way to control my cell phone expenses was to go the "pre-pay" way.   This company offers plans that have caught my attentions  hook, line and sinker  and I'm ready to take the bait.
I needed a company where there is  everything you need  and no contracts, no surprise bills and no credit checks.  I wanted to get great nationwide coverage and excellent reception and connectivity.  Shopping for great deals meant that I had to spend time online doing constructive research.   I found Straight Talk and took the time to look at all the options offered.

Straight Talk only uses trusted phone manufacturers like LG, Motorola, Kyocera, Nokia and Samsung.  Reconditioned phones are available from $10.00 with camera, mp3 player, mobile web access, and blue-tooth capability.  The young people love this and it’s nice to know next time your teen looses their phone.  You know how they are always wanting to  call a friend  and chat.  Straight Talk can give you everything you need without a contract.  Their International Long Distance Service is a flexible prepaid calling service that enables you to make international calls from your home, cell or office phone at low rates.
Just looking at the money you will be saving with one of these plans.  There are many ideas you could whip up, to use that extra money.

My Coffee

It's the waker upper, that gets you going in the mornings.  I would be lost without my coffee, and go through the day in a daze.  I've been drinking coffee since I was six years old and needing something to wake me up and get me going in the mornings.  Going to school was a daze for me anyway, I just didn't like to learn all that information.  I often wondered why those people were making me learn things I didn't want to learn?  I just wanted to be a child and play.  All the other stuff could be taken care of by the adults.

Again......

Seeing this person from time to time, only makes the memories come back.  It is a hurting process no one wants to go through.  I hate to let my feelings get me into this place of letdown.  I try so hard to be the right person that someone could like and have a relationship with.  I just keep coming up short and disappointed at the outcomes.  I meet someone, and they start giving me attention.  I react to the attention and it still leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth.  I realize that men are different from women, and try to understand their thinking.  Never works and it doesn't matter how much we talk, somehow the information is never what the other wants to hear.  
I suppose I have to accept that the only brain or feelings a man has is in his pants.  So, I'm left with my feelings/heart in my hands and a rejection to add to my already growing list.

Update

Her grandfather let it slip, before the parents had a chance to tell the public.  Her name is "Arabella Rose", and I believe that's a very nice name, considering the fact that it could have started with an "I"....lol.

New Pet

Since moving to the family home, I decided to get a companion.  Since there are no men I'm considering, then I guess a cat will have to do.........!  She arrived 2 days ago, and has remained for the most part, shy.  Last night she actually came out from hiding a allowed me to pet her.  I'm sure it won't be long until she will be under foot most of the time..........now, just getting her to eat and drink water and using the litter box.........hope she's not making me a mess somewhere.

How would you like to find, eyeglasses cheap that are made according to your prescription?  These eyeglasses are of the highest quality, set at a price that is affordable and include anti-reflective coating for free. The glasses will arrive in at least one week after your order is complete. I assume this is one of the ways they keep happy returning customers. This website offers the #1 online Rx glasses store , and you can get bifocals as well, for a little more than regular lens. Now you can replace those broken or lost glasses, much easier than before.  Zenni Optical   will take your prescription, and produce quality eye wear, in a matter of a few days.  They say that you should have your ready to wear glasses back within a week or so after your order has been made and approved. Zenni Optical offers some of the  Lowest Price Progressive Glasses for your prescriptions, and you can get them at affordable prices, along with sunglasses as well.

To get prescription  eyeglasses  from local optician,  there are easier and smarter ways to get stylish and attractive prescription eyeglass buy shopping at the best online eyeglass store. There may be various online eyeglass stores out there in web offering prescription eyeglass at different prices. The unique feature of Zenni Optical eyeglasses  store is that they offer unique, stylish and attractive eyeglass for users with perfect P.D measurement provided by the user. 

A recent article listed in  Time magazine   told of how one executive paid over $1000 for a pair of eyeglasses.  I wonder if this person has lack of common sense?  I believe that he may have more money than brains.  Considering the price of everything else, buying glasses shouldn't be one that breaks your bank.

Doing Better

Visited the nursing home this morning and could tell that Mom is doing much better.  About a week or so ago, I wouldn't have given her 2 or 3 days to live.  She has rallied and actually had the orderlies help her get up and sit in her recliner.  This is a big action on her part, since most of the time she has make it clear she didn't want to get up out of the bed.  Her husband was shocked when she asked the aides to help her get up and to her chair.  This is a step in the right direction.

Finally

The daughter I was worried about finally called and let me know how she was doing.  It was good to hear from her and know that she is well and doing fine.  It had been over two months since I had gotten a call from her, and at that time she was having financial problems.  It is good to see her regroup and make an effort to get her life back on track.  Wish some other people would do that.

No News

I'm waiting to hear from my oldest daughter.  She hasn't contacted me in over two months and the last time I heard from her she was having problems with her job and finances.  I do hope she found a feasible way to handle her problems and not be living in dire need.  They say "no news, is good news", I say damn it, they could call and let me know they are ok.

Parent's Choice Infant Formula Sweepstakes

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of PBM Products for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

It's been a few year's since my children were babies, but they were fed with what I considered to be the best formula, on the market at that time. As mother's, we all want the best for our babies, and try to make sure that we give them nourishing beverages, food as well as snacks. Wal-Mart's "Parent’s Choice Milk Infant Formula" is a good savings and the formula has all the ingredients of any name brand formula's.  Reading the ingredient labels, I found that the store brand formula was equal to the name brands.
It has been available in Wal-Mart Stores for over 13 years.  On June 15, 2011, Parent’s Choice Infant Formula Savings Sweepstakes , created in partnership with PBM Products, LLC, a Perrigo Company.  It will provide one lucky winner with a $10,000 college scholarship in the form of a College Savings 529 Plan.  The sweepstakes will run through 11:59 p.m. on August 1, 2011, giving you a good amount of time to apply.  One student and one family will  be given the chance to afford the start of that child's future education.   You can find the rules and entry form online at http://parentschoicesweepstake…

New People

Almost daily I find myself meeting new people and recognizing people from the past.  The town I moved to, is my old home town.  There are many new people living here, and a few of the old people still around.  It's like watching time past in front of my face, when I run into one of the people I grew up around.  Seeing how they look after all these years can really get your attention.  I can only imagine how I must look to them. 
The nice part is that most of the bullies around back then are gone, and that's a good thing.  The new people who have moved here in the last few years are of a different scenario.  It's great starting over in my old home town, and I relish the time I am enjoying at the present.
