I do most of my shopping online these days. It is much easier than going out and dealing with the general public and all the hassles that go along with that hassle. I can find some really sweet deals online, with free shipping that always helps defray some of the costs. And sites that accept Pay Pal are a real plus.

My mother has been dropping hints that she would like to have some new Window Box Planters. So I have been doing some research on the Internet to find the perfect Window Box Planter for her. She has always had a green thumb (I certainly didn’t get any of her green thumb talents) and she has several Decorative Planters around the house but now she wants to be able to get into some nice Outdoor Planters this up and coming planting season.

I do have some nice, clean and pretty old Silver coins that my grandmother left to me when she passed away many years ago, but I would never consider selling them, unless I was really in trouble and needed some cash. I intend on keeping them and passing them down and keeping them in the family for many years to come. I think my grandmother would want it that way.

I had no idea how many resorts there are in today’s Myrtle Beach, but I think that I have found one that might interest my folks at http://www.ttimesonly.com/ where I see that they are offering good prices and some interesting golf packages. So I’m shooting my mom an email with the link provided and we will see what thinks about my choice. Little did I know that she also asked my brother to take some time and do the same thing. I’m quite curious to see what he comes up with.

It will be great to go to the beach, play some golf and spend time with my kid brother and my folks, it’s been too long since we have had some time to do something like this. Thanks mom!

She has joined their local neighborhood watch and gotten to know some their neighbors a bit better. They have two large dogs that have been making them feel a bit better but the situation has declined so much that they are a bit leary with leaving it all up to the dogs. The neighborhood watch  have a good relationship with the Fort Worth, PD and they have provided all the members with police security tips to review, and utilize which is a good idea. But she is still worried and in the market for a good quality but affordable home security system. She has reviewed the website of homesecurityteam.com which is the ADT Home Security System Authorized Dealers site. ADT is a repitable company and has some good packages to choose from. My cousin tells me that they have 130 years experience is the security business. There is something to be said about a company that has been around for that long.

Now a days they have so many cool virtual girl games to offer young girls that make the old fashioned paper dolls really look out dated and boring. The computer makes the whole process less tedious and totally more exciting and I can see why the market has dropped out of the paper doll industry. It took a while for them to figure out that the need for more virtual girl games were a big issue and we are finally seeing a good amount of virtual girl games coming out and the girls are just eating them up as fast as they can produce them.

My niece is now too old for toys, she spends most of her time on her cell phone or on her computer. I know that she still plays some of the games that are for younger girls, but there is nothing wrong with that. I’m going to send her the link to easygirlgames.com that I ran across and I’ll ask her if she remembers me bringing those darned paper dolls over and see what she remembers about how they were so disappointing. Live and learn, right?

We used to have Wood Lockers as our Gym Locker, now they were small, but you didn’t have to keep much in those. Good thing because they didn’t smell very good, but they served their purpose. I don’t think that kids even use those Gym Lockers anymore, they don’t have to dress out like we did, nor do they require them to shower after gym. What’s up with that? I’ll bet these middle schools don’t smell very good, I feel sorry the teachers that have to smell those hormonal monsters each and every day. Especially right after gym.

So earlier today I was just cruising the Internet and some how got linked up to a site that had Lockers for sale, which was pretty good reading considering I was just thinking about Locker issues. It’s amazing how many types of Lockers are now being made. You just gotta love the Internet for bringing items such as this right to our home computer.

Anyway she has found a new Myrtle Beach Accommodations website at http://www.seasidemb.com. The Seaside Resort is located in North Myrtle Beach and the previous accommodations were in a different area all together, so my mother switched things around and hopefully they will be all set. September is right around corner. I’m hoping that they will have good weather, who knows what September will be bringing us with all of the wacky and extreme weather that we have been experiencing this past year or so. Good weather can break or make a beach trip.

When I first became engaged the first thing I thought was “how can I do this myself?”. I logged onto the internet, through my new shughes net North Carolina provider, and began searching. I came across a slew of websites that allowed me to plan almost anything.

From theme choices, wedding gowns, to hair styles you can find anything you need to plan a wedding. One of the greatest things I am able to do online is interact with all my vendors. I was able to book my DJ online, and can even plan out what songs I do and don’t want to be played. I was able to find all my vendors, look at what others had to say about their prices, professionalism, and overall reviews. I have been able to find amazing deals, and find the best vendors just through searching online.

Another thing that people fail to plan is proper etiquette. What exactly you are supposed to do. Who is to be invited to what, proper wording for invitations. It is a whole new world, that you are only visiting. Better plan well and get it right the first time.

Finally, I was able to build my wedding website. This allows all my guests, especially those from out of town to find information about hotels to stay at, entertainment in the area, and directions to different places. It also lets me share our story, and pictures. I’m so glad I have hughes internet satellite.
