That didn't last long

Perusing the checking account I see the Economic Stimulus check from the IRS didn't last long. Which is exactly what the Government was hoping for, so much for grand schemes for saving it.

We paid a few bills off but splurged on ourselves.

I have to admit, that even though I am a man, I love to shop. When the keeper of the wallet (aka the chief financial officer, the wife) gives me the go ahead to spend money, I am off and out and getting myself stuff.

I always have a notebook with me that has my lists of cool stuff I have seen that I plan on getting when I have the money for them.

Now I just have to find a use for some of this crap I have bought.

Travel stuff

Daughter came over to borrow a couple of suitcases, she and her family are taking off to visit her sister and her niece and nephews. I had to hunt around for the TSA padlocks and neck pillow and other travel supplies.

We usually have all this crap in our cases to make flights easier.

I usually end up buying several of those inflatable neck rest pillows. I find them useful on flights but always seem to leave them on planes or other places.

I cannot fold stuff

I just washed all our towels and comforter sets and dragged them up from the dryer, started to fold them to out them in the lined closet. Carolyn unfolded everything and is refolding them. Apparently I don't know how to fold stuff correctly. Being left-handed she also folds stuff in different directions to I do!

At least I am trying. I didn't know we had so many bloody towels!

Doing up the place

For sometime now we have had plans of doing up the house, nice curtains, flashy shower faucets, coordinated furniture and new bedroom furniture.

Now we are planning on moving so all these plans will be moved to the next place, plus we can get to start from the beginning and get everything just how we like it.

We are moving from a two-story townhouse to a place all on one level, so some stuff has to go. But we do have unopened boxes from several moves ago. So I foresee a trip to the dump for a lot of those.

Diet supplement research

What with the big thing with diet fads, pills, supplements and various regimes for weight loss, it pays to do some research before you starting downing some pill or supplement in an effort to drop those errant pounds.

It seems a day doesn't go by with a new item coming out courting those people who are trying to get rid of the love handles.

So check out researchdietpills.com before you try any new pills or supplement like lipovox
