Thanksgiving Tidbits

alans-turkey-resized.jpgThis cute little turkey was made by our son back when he was five years old.  His homework for kindergarten was to decorate a turkey cardboard shape with his family.  This is what we came up with.   (Surprisingly, the cereal we glued on has lasted throughout all the years.  I guess that shows how many preservatives they put in foods.) Click here for Thanksgiving crafts to make with the kids.

The most important part about Thanksgiving is to remember why we celebrate that day and how it got started.  It originated as a day to give thanks to God for the bounty of food with which He blessed them.  This day of Thanksgiving has lasted through the decades as a day to give God thanks for all our blessing.

Blog Pictures | acobox.com

Isn’t this a beautiful picture?  I love the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, and this picture reminds me of them.  I don’t know where this picture was taken, but that doesn’t matter.  I just know that I really like it, and it makes me want to go to Colorado!

One thing I’ve noticed is that blog pictures add a lot to a post. I have often wished that I had a picture for something I was writing in a post. Well, now I have this great site to go to where I can get free, quality pictures for my blog.  These pictures are all properly licensed and ready to use on my blog or anyone’s blog who is a registered user.  And registering is very quick and easy.

In order to use a picture from acobox in a post on my blog, all I have to do is copy and paste the code they give me.  It’s that simple.  That’s what we bloggers need, right?  When we have a lot of things going on during the day, we certainly don’t need anything complicated or anything that will be a big hassle to use. Let me assure you that it is fast and easy!

Texas or Manhattan

Do you ever wonder what it would be like to live in another city?  I’ve lived in Texas nearly my whole life, but I wonder what it would be like in New York.  Thinking about the jobs in Manhattan and places available to live makes me think it would be so different.  Just about every place I’ve lived in Texas I’ve been able to see cows in a pasture every day within just a few miles of wherever I lived.  I love seeing the cows because they are such a peaceful, laid-back animal.  I guess they would have cows out away from the cities in New York.   Hmm…sounds like a nice place to visit, but I think I’ll stay in Texas.

I wrote a few days ago about how I gave my husband a gift of a domain so that he could start his own blog.  He really liked that!  And I recently renewed that for him for another year.

Do you have someone, maybe a family member, who you have no idea what to give them?  Maybe they would love to have their own domain.  Here’s a really good deal from Godaddy.com for $7.49.  Check them out:

CVS Surprise in the Mail

Today, I got a surprise from CVS in the mail.  At first, I thought it was just a thick packet of advertisements or maybe even coupons.  Since I like to shop at CVS from time to time and get their good deals on certain things, I opened the envelope to see what was inside.  Much to my surprise, a folded-up shopping bag was inside.  In their efforts to support the “Green” cause, they mailed us a reuseable shopping bag that even has a tiny little slot on the outside in which they thoughtfully put a copy of our current CVS card.  I don’t have to hunt for my CVS card now…they can just scan it through the clear pocket on the outside of my bag.  There’s even a pocket to hold coupons.  How cool is that!!

Godaddy.com is the domain name registrar that I use with Healthy Home Blog.   I have been pleased with their service, and their service is the reason they are the world’s leading domain name registrar and largest web host.  They offer customer service 24-7 and also offer a wide array of products, so they have been able to set up and maintain 30 million domain names.



Buying a Car

I know someone who bought a car (new to them but actually a used car) a few months ago.  There were so many things to see about after purchasing the vehicle such as getting the title transfer, arranging for auto insurance, making sure the inspection sticker was up to date, and also checking things out to make sure everything worked correctly.   When someone is budgeting for buying a car, they need to take into account all of the expenses involved after purchasing the vehicle.

Why is it So Fun to Look at Baby Clothes?

Now that our daughter and s-i-l are expecting their second baby next April, I find myself noticing baby clothes even more.  They are just so cute, especially the ones for the little babies.  I was the same way with Baby J when they were expecting him and still am to a certain degree with his clothes.  But now I’m noticing the little, bitty clothes again.   So fun! 🙂

Operator Tactical Pants

I was not sure what tactical pants were, and I wanted to find out.  Any wife or mother of someone in law enforcement or the military knows what these type of pants are.  Did that give you a big clue if you didn’t know either?

If you look online, Operator Tactical Pants has a great price on these pants, and their NEW ones are loaded with features and lots of pockets.  They cut out the middle man and are able to offer these at a low price. By the way, they sold over 3,000 pairs in 15 days!

So, if you didn’t know what tactical pants were either, now we know!

Stronger Cell Phone Signals

Have you ever been talking on your cell phone and then lose connection?  That happens every once in a while, and it’s so frustrating when that does.  It usually happens to us when we’re traveling out in the middle of nowhere.  Some people have a cell phone repeater that operates on a dual band and different frequencies, and so I guess they don’t have that problem. Must be nice to have a stronger cell phone signal!
