Misery

The people of the Gulf Coast areas are sitting in water, waiting for relief.  It will be a few more days before they can get back to their homes and properties.  Most of the shelters are full and this gives a very bad situation for the people as they suffer and rebuild their lives. 
It seems that every year around this time, our world experiences some type of disasters, be it hurricanes, typhoon's, earthquakes or tsunami's.  California has their earthquakes, and forest fires.  Texas has forest fires, earthquakes, violent storms, and hurricanes.  Japan and it's islands, are reeling from the last typhoon, which has left it in worse shape than the Gulf Coast people.  The Philippines just experienced an earthquake and that just a few of the things our world is going through.  We hope that our relief organizations can hold up with the demands they have place upon them.  It's just a bad run of disaster's and they don't seem to be over with as yet.

Issac

We haven't received any bad effects from this hurricane, but Louisiana has been beat down once again.  Torrential rains and high winds have reeked havoc on New Orleans and left it with high water rushing over the levees causing wide spread flooding.  People have had to be evacuated from their homes in Mississippi as well.  Texas missed the bad storm and that's a plus for us.  While we could have used the rain, we are thankful there isn't a damaging disaster to contend with.  Condolences to all the people who have been and are in the path of this storm.

Neil Armstrong Dies at 82

 America's famed astronaut has left this world once again.  This time he's gone on and with his passing will be sorely missed by many.  He is the one who stepped down on the moon back when America was new to the "Space Age".  History was made by this man, and he will go down as a great individual in American history books.  Our condolences to his family, friends and many coworkers' through out the year's.

Armstrong Stripped

The news media has it showing that Lance Armstrong will not fight the allegations about his drug use during the Tour de France races.  This seems to be just one more hurdle for the famed biker.  He has endured cancer, divorce, grueling racing on his bikes and now he may even loose all his titles.  Quite a huge fall for a popular athlete, who made a name for himself in the bike racing world.  I am sorry it's come to this because the fact remains that this person actually did race and finish the grueling tracks in record time.  I can only imagine the training and endurance this one person has had to experience.

Labels

Down through the years, I have worked in many different fields where I was in an office environment.  I've found myself making labels, many times during that era.  It's considered easier to just make a label and stick it on a box or letter.  Even envelopes can be labeled.  I'm not sure about the  dymo 30252  product, but for more information you can click on the link in this post.

Why?

I often wonder what people get out of being so nasty during bad storms?  It seems that they take please in inflicting trauma on other's during a bad storm.  The idea of throwing someone out of the house into a stormy night is just basically cruel.  Which I suppose, is exactly what the person doing the act is wanting to do.  Being cruel, is something you do when you are very unhappy with another person.  Like the breaking up a two people in a relationship.  Yet, in the middle of a horrible storm, sure seems a bit dire.

Shelves

You see the  Gondola Shelves  all the time when you are shopping in your local stores. They are set up around the stores for the convenience of the customers looking for products and merchandise.  I have used these shelves many times when stocking groceries and other products.  For more information click on the link in this post.

Storms

Storms came tearing through the DFW areas last night, with thunder, lightning, wind and plenty of rain.  It was a bit scary at times.  The lightning was severe as was the thunder.  One of those times, I jumped because it was right over head and very loud.  The lightning was very bright and before I could move to put my hands over my ears, the thunder boomed real loud.  When I jumped, I spilled my water glass on me.  Wow, what a night as it just kept doing this most of the night.

Bulbs?

Lighting is very important to art studios as well as other properties.  You can install great lighting to enhance your property's value and give you good visual effects.  When you need to purchase a incandescent bulb  you might consider shopping online and utilize the sales prices.  Shopping online will give you convenience and the ability to do so from your office or home.

90 Days

There's so many wrong way driver's happening here in our local areas.  These people are driving drunk or maybe a combination of being high on drugs and drinking.  Either way they are letting their lives get away from them and running a very bad risk.  The first DUI will get them 90 days suspension on their driver's license, if there's no accident, injuries or loss of life.  Otherwise these people will be in dire trouble.  It's just not worth it.

Slane

I went to this website and looked at the main page.  This is silver jewelry and what I saw was unique to catch the younger person's whim's.  You can get  slane jewelry  at this website and there are store listings.  I noticed that there is free shipping on all orders.  I didn't see whether this was a special or an on going thing.

Wonderful

All we can say about last nights storms was wonderful rain.  Yes we  had lightning, thunder and wind but mostly we enjoyed the cooling rain.  It's been so damn hot here in Texas and with all of it, we've had to fight the mosquitos and West Nile.  It's now cool but I feel the heat arriving and along with that will be the humidity.

Life

It pays to be insured with the way the economy is going, no one is safe from it.  You find that shopping for insurance is a hassle.  This one and that one have the best deals.  You get all this mail telling you their insurance is the greatest you can get.  Still you don't know for sure.  Click on equote's low cost life insurance  link and see the different options they give.

Old Lamp

This lamp is very old and was the property of my grandmother.  She started housekeeping back in the early 1900's and this was one she used.  The oil in ii is very old and has turned purple.  I also her her clock, which I had appraised and found it to be made back in 1907.

Fireplaces

While an  electric fireplace  can't take the place of a real one, you can have the effects of the natural glow.  I'm sure they are considered safer than the real one's as well.  You can have the fun without all the cleanup later.  Romance can live around an electric fireplace as well as a real one.

Mitt's Flub

Well, Mitt you done it again.  But in reality what you said about Ryan, could have been a good omen.  After reading his background and the way he has handled things during the last few years in Congress, I totally agree.  Unfortunately, it won't be so this time.  Introducing him as the next president, was a great flub, but now a bad one.  I would vote for him and I'm not the only one in America.  It's too bad he's the one that will be VP instead of you.

Electronic Gadgets

I suppose this means something that I haven't gotten into as yet.  I wonder if  Disk defrag   is supposed to be different from the defrag you do when you go into your control panel and use that application?  I'm not very smart when it comes to utilizing my computer programs and all the different things to be done have escaped me.  I can't even get an upgrade for fear of messing something up.

Paul Ryan Mitt's Pick

Well, it's official.  Looks as though Mitt has committed himself to a running mate.  Sounds odd when you put it that way, doesn't it?  Anyway, he's got the Wisconsin boy going along for the ride toward the top seats in America.  Can they make it is the question?  Ryan is noted as being a son of an attorney and a fifth generation Wisconsin native.  No need to look for his birth certificate or proof of his legal status. 

Cozy Up

There's always a nice place to place something for past time in your yard.  I found that a nice  fire pit
 can make life more enjoyable when you are just wanting to lounge around.  Being lazy is fun especially in front of a small fire sipping a brew.  You will want to cozy up to someone while enjoying this leisure time.

Weeds?

The guy next door is mowing his yard.  There isn't anything to mow because of the drought we've been having.  I realize that the trees are dropping leaves on a daily basis.  This could lead to clutter and cause him to want to mow.  My yard looks horrible with all the falling leaves.  There are plenty more on the trees to fall, so why go and mow them now.  I would have to go back and mow again in 2 weeks.

Is He?

I know a girl who has two young daughter's who the question of the which one may come up.  She didn't care about the fun she was having in recent years.  Thinking she wasn't able to conceive, she ran around having too much fun.  Now, the question pops up by local health organizations who are funding child welfare for her.  An  at home paternity test   can be given to one of the young men, because he is in question.  As for the other man possibly involved, there's no certain way to encounter him on these terms.

Gold

The USA still leads in Olympic Gold Medals.  It's been a great year in London and the US is doing very well.  Some of our people have brought home medals which weren't obtained for many years.  Finally we produce an athlete that can bring it back to the US and once again give us the gold.

Lanyards

 It was several years before I knew what a lanyard was.  I always addressed them as neck straps that held certain objects.  Now, I know the real name and wonder how the idea of  lanyards  came into being?  There are different types and designs that can be bought.  You can also find needs for these products in warehouses, shops and other industrial areas.

Rain

The heat has been taking it's toll on the north Texas areas, and when we got some chances for rain there wasn't much hope.  I've actually seen several clouds, heard a lot of thunder and done a bunch of hoping.  Still it has managed to miss our town.  This morning I woke to thunder and got up to see a very cloudy morning.  The humidity is horrible and I can only imagine how it will be this afternoon, when the temperatures heat up.

Texas Beauty

 
This is just one of the things you can find in our Texas pastures and we are proud of the sights you can see here in our state.

Jewelry

 I have told my sister to start an online store for her handmade jewelry, but as yet she still hasn't gone that far.  I know that there are many online stores where you can get  jewelry online cheap   and be able to afford many different pieces.  Click on the link in this post and see what this online store can offer your taste.

Olympics

The sports world is tied up and watching the Olympics on TV.  It's something to behold, just seeing the competitions unfold with all the different nations attending.  You see so much culture included with all of the nations bringing their own to the games.  It's a special time for the young and old competitors whom we wish well.
