For the Heck of it!
No set topic, no set niche – just for the heck of it!
I’m not looking for car insurance at the present time but my youngest step-son is in the market for car insurance. He just looked at me like I was crazy when I told him about the old days when we had to get out the yellow pages and make call after after call and then compare quotes ourselves when we were looking for insurance. So many things are made better with the internet and world wide web. In our modern day world you can compare auto insurance quotes online from a variety of insurers with one simple process.
Finding free online car insurance quotes at OnlineAutoInsurance.com couldn’t be simpler. OnlineAutoInsurance.com provides an easy to use web tool which allows you to put in the information about yourself and your vehicle. They then match you with several providers to choose from. Remember, don’t go with the lowest priced insurer because they are the cheapest. Do your homework and check out the company before you hand them over any cash. Good luck and good hunting!
Years ago (just after WWII and yes, years before I was born) my grandfather built a house and with that house he included a solar water heater. My grandfather was such a future thinker, but that’s a post for another time.
I have often wondered why solar energy isn’t more prevalent in our country and the world today. I just read about something that I think is totally awesome as I haven’t heard about the BP Solar Decathlon until now.
Sponsored by BP, twenty teams have been selected by the U.S. Department of Energy to compete in the 2007 Solar Decathlon. These teams will participate in a competition to design, build and operate the most attractive and energy-efficient solar-powered home. Here is the cool part – in October (this week as a matter of fact) all of these homes will be transported to the National Mall in Washington, DC where they will form a solar village and compete in contests to determine an overall winner. Each participating entry will be judged on criteria including style, innovation and efficiency.
BP has sponsored the previous Solar Decathlons also which were held in 2002 and 2005. Supporting the Solar Decathlon is part of BP’s larger commitment to the promotion and use of alternative energy. I think this is totally awesome and I wish I could be there to tour the homes and look at the exhibits. I wonder what they do with the homes after the exhibit is over. I’ll have to do some more research to find out.
I was thinking about our “tree” where FanceePantzz is being held hostage. It looks a lot like the Stairway to Heaven cat house and our cats really love it. Well, Fancee really loves it because she lives on it now and even takes her meals there.
I was thinking about ordering another one and found a nice selection of pet supplies over at the Internet Pet Emporium.
I want to thank the people that responded to my post about Lilly because I think you understand how I feel about her. I know some people have the mindset that “it’s just a cat!” and I do understand that mind set because I never had a cat of my own until about 10 years ago when I got my Shimmer.
My husband and I lived in different towns before we were married and he would say he needed to go home because his cat Skid had been left alone for a day and I’d say “it’s just a cat!” to him. I could just kick myself now for saying things like that back then. Our cats are just like family to us and they are not “just cats” at all. They are our babies.

I’m flabbergasted. Utterly stunned. Mona (my daughter-in-law’s mother that recently passed away) didn’t have any life insurance. Okay, I think she had a $1000.00 policy but in my mind that’s the same as having no life insurance. I can’t imagine what she was thinking. She had a good job working for a doctor’s office and was treated very well there. I just don’t know why she didn’t have more than $1000.00 in life insurance.
My husband and I have wonderful medical and life insurance through his work, but I’m telling you people to listen up. If you don’t have life insurance this is something you might want to start doing something about it.
I was looking around at options Mona could have taken advantage of. She loved the internet and was on it all the time. There are websites on the net that give tips to get the cheapest quote for life insurance as well as home insurance, car insurance and just about any kind of insurance you’re looking for.
On a selfish note, Mona not having life insurance is going to take a toll on my husband and I. My husband has already offered to pay off her car (she didn’t have credit life on that loan either) so the kids (our son and DIL) will be able to keep it. This is just the tip of the iceberg and I still can’t stop being flabbergasted.

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before but fall is my very favorite time of the year. This probably sounds odd, but I feel more refreshed, more optimistic, and more ambitious during the fall then any other season. Maybe I’ll finally stop procrastinating and go ahead and purchase the dining room set I’ve wanted for so long.
I found a great selection of dining sets over at Great Priced Furniture and I do believe they live up to their name. I really, really like this North Shore Gathering Table Set.
In addition to great prices, Great Priced Furniture offers a 30-day money back guarantee and GE Consumer Financing with no interest and no payments until February 2009. I’m still looking at other dining sets on their website but so far the gathering table set is my favorite.
