For the Heck of it!
No set topic, no set niche – just for the heck of it!
It is hard to believe summer is nearly over and fall is almost here. I never did buy the mailbox I was talking about a few months ago so maybe it is time to start thinking about that again.
Mailboxixchange is a neat website that features high quality mailboxes. I’m tired of our current little leaking mailbox so I’m looking at some of the post mount residential mailboxes. We live about 2/10 mile from the hard road so I’d like to have a big heavy duty mailbox as a replacement.
With over 1500 residential and commercial mailboxes it should be pretty easy to find just the one I want.
I’m on a campaign to improve and replace several things in my home and ceiling fans are on the top of my list. I recently found a website that has a selection of more than four hundred unique ceiling fans from thirteen manufacturers. This is the largest selection available online.
When we bought our mobile home a few years ago the people we bought it from promised to install two ceiling fans before delivery – one in the master bedroom and one in the living room. After the home was delivered, you guessed it, there were no ceiling fans installed. There were only a couple of gaping holes where the fans should be. Of course I got on the phone and let them know about it and they said they would take care of it and would send someone out with the fans to install them. Ha! By the looks of the fans they sent someone to the nearest discount store and bought two fans for the blue light special.
I’ve been checking Farrey’s website and looking at some of the fans they have listed there. I think I like the Hunter fans best.
How in the world can someone confuse “he called from Germany” with “he is waiting for a plane out of Iraq”? I just don’t get it. My husband told me T. called from Germany. I thought he was on his way home from Iraq but now I find out he is still there waiting for a flight.
I keep asking my husband how the information got miscommunicated but he just says it was hectic at our daughter-in-law’s house today and it was just a mistake. This bites.
Okay, here is my kind of luck. One week after I upgrade my PC I find out about CensusPC. I could have saved about $100.00 if I had purchased my upgrades from CensusPC instead of having the repair shop do the upgrade for me. Of course, I gladly payed for the repairman’s knowledge and expertise since I have no idea how to upgrade a PC.
All isn’t lost however, because there is always some new toy or piece of equipment just waiting to go home in my shopping cart. I’ve been thinking about holding a contest on this blog and I think one of these USB Flash Pen drives would make a really good prize.
I was looking around at some of the other items and noticed they have large selection of notebook AC/DC power adapters . Now, I’m not interested in that for myself but oddly enough my son mentioned that he needed a power adapter for his notebook the other night when we were out to dinner. He is also in the process of building his first computer so I’ll have to be sure to forward the website address of CensusPC to him.

T. is my husband’s son from a previous marriage but I consider him to be “our” son.
I know that our daughter-in-law M. put in a few phone calls to the Marine Corp last night regarding her mother’s death but I honestly didn’t think they would let him come home, but we have word that he will be coming home from Iraq in the next day or two.
We think he might be staying in the states for good because they told him to make sure to pack everything he owned. I’d think he would do that anyway, but who knows? I hope and pray he does not have to go back to Iraq. He has been there two times. That’s enough.
He is already on his way and called from Germany to let M. know his status. I’m sorry he is coming home for the reason he is coming home. Thank God he is out of Iraq and on his way home.
Added Note: He was still in Iraq when I wrote this – there had been a miscommunication.
