My favorite winter drink is made with Alpine’s Spiced Cider, which is found at all the grocery stores here in town. You just add hot water to the mix in the envelope and you are good to go.
I however like to add a shot of Captain Morgan’s 100% proof Spiced Rum, along with a cinnamon stick, which I add for the flavor and to use to stir the mixture with also. It makes for a wonderful winter beverage that will certainly put a smile on your face and warm your insides at the same time.
I have a good friend who was widowed last year due to a freak accident. She is still young and vital, and after a lengthy mourning period she’s decided to start dating again. I am totally behind her on this decision – she needs to meet some new guys and get out of the house and have a good life. She called last night to chat about her online dating experiences – or lack of them. She hasn’t had a date yet.
Now, she’s a good person and is admittedly looking for a husband replacement, not just a casual sexual encounter every weekend. So some of the Internet dating sites are just not appropriate for her. I don’t think she realized the importance of finding the right free online dating sites so I’m gonna start looking around and asking questions myself and see what I can come up with and find out about as well.
This year’s Thanksgiving dinner celebration is going to be different from previous ones. My mother usually hosts these holiday functions at the old homestead, but this year my brother’s daughter has volunteered to have Thanksgiving at her new town house. We were afraid that my mother might be upset with this but she seems grateful that she won’t have to do both Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, since it is a lot of hard work for her to tackle each and every year. So we will see how it all works out come next Thursday afternoon.
A while back while I was laid up with a bum knee I had to watch a few minutes of Rachel Ray. Ugh. She is way too perky for me. She had an interesting guest on – Paula Abdul. Now that is one whacky lady. The strange moments on that show where she is on the jury must all be true. She is just strange. But in a lovable way. And she has a great body, a beautiful smile, and that girl can DANCE!
In a Twilight Zone moment, Rachel asked Paula what she likes to wear around the house and Paula answered, “Either sweatpants or scrub pants – you know, like the doctors and nurses wear at the hospitals. They are SOOO comfortable!”
And Rachel seriously asks, “Oh! Can you buy those things?” Yes Rachel you can find plenty of comfortable and affordable scrubs and here is a good link for you to start your search at http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Women/ Only reason I know this is that my sister-in-law is a nurse and buys her medical uniforms from Blue Sky Scrubs and has always been happy with what she orders from them.
Getting up early tomorrow and accompanying a friend to a Trade Show that he has signed up for in order to try and drum up some business for his mail and packaging store that has not been doing very well these past couple of years. Trade Shows are a great way to market any type of business and a great net working opportunity as well. I’ll be helping him set up and take down as well as handing out the challenge coins that he had made up with his companies logo embedded on to use as give a ways for occasions just like this. It should be an interesting day, haven’t been to a Trade Show in some time and I look forward to coming home with a bag full of promotional items that are always given away so freely during these events.

Owning your own home is, to be honest, a lot more work than I ever thought it would be. I figured you find the right place, buy it, then move in and…live happily ever after. SO not the case. I’ve been unpacking boxes for what feels like months now and everywhere I turn there’s something that needs to be replaced or renovated or whatever. I guess that’s what you get when you buy an older place but at the end of the day I have to be able to count on the purchase I made. I love knowing this place is mine all mine but that means a lot of responsibility. From the trash to the cable I know I’ve got to be in charge and sometimes that’s hard to do after a long day at work! I’ve never imagined myself as responsible as I am now and I guess that’s a good thing…buying a house sure did make me grow up fast. My mother would be happy to hear me say that, that’s for sure!
My best friend sent me an email with pictures of several breathe taking roads from all over. This one is my favorite and I’d love to know where the location is of it. That information wasn’t included along with the photos. But maybe some one out there reading this post might recognize it and let me know.

I’ve been trying to help a friend with her website issues, not that I know a whole heck of a lot about this area. But I have been blogging on my own page for a while and I have learned a few things and have a few tricks up my sleeve. I have recommended her to utilize all that Bizzclick.com has to offer with all of the experience and expertise for their clients. I’ve helped her with her Home page issues and concerns, but now I really have to turn her over to where she will really get the best bang for her buck by well trained professionals.
Bizzclick.com can help her with the Publisher page and the Advertiser page that they have so much experience with. They are a Pay Per Click agency that I trust enough for her to get involved in and I’ll always have her back. Technology is always changing and lord knows I can’t even start to keep up with it all so places like Bizzclick.com are definitely the way to go these days.
