I really wish that I had known about the memory foam dogs beds that are on today’s market a few years ago when our aging dog Rags was having a difficult time moving around due to old age. I’m sure that she was suffering from some type of arthritis and it broke our heart when in her last days with us that she would barely have the strength to get up to do her business by going out the doggy door that we installed just for that reason. If I had known about these orthopedic dog beds I certainly would have supplied Rags with one the moment she looked like she needed one.
These memory foam dog beds are a great idea for our four legged canine friends. If and when we get another dog I will make sure that we have one of these around when we need it. I know that memory foam beds do wonders for people so it only makes sense that our pets would benefit from all that they have to offer for them.
Today my wife and I went to the local Staples store so we could take a look at the two e-readers that are the ones most widely publicized. We both got Amazon.com gift cards as Christmas gifts, and we were thinking about using them to buy a Kindle, but we wanted to make sure that we liked the Kindle better than a Nook. After all, they seem to be the same price range. The sales person tried to convince us to buy the new Kindle Fire, but we decided on the Kindle Touch Wi-Fi, and went home and ordered it online so we could use the gift cards. We only had enough money on the gift cards to buy one Kindle, so I guess we will have to share the Kindle for a while under we can afford a second one. I don’t know, maybe our second e-reader will be a Nook!
During Christmas dinner we all got to know my kid sister’s fiance Jack a bit better. They have been engaged for 6 months now and we really haven’t gotten a chance to meet with them since then. They are not planning on getting married any time soon, not in any hurry, which is a good thing.
Jack is an enrolled agent cpe and has been for almost 5 years, he comes from a well established family from Massachusetts, which makes him a Yankee, but we are trying not to hold that against him LOL! He is now concentrating on his required enrolled agent continuing education, which can be done right online these days, so that he can continue working in that position and save enough money for the big wedding that my sis has always dreamed of and I’m sure that will cost us all a good chunk of change in the long run.
They make a cute couple, it was a nice relaxed Christmas this year. Now on with the New Year’s festivities.
Over the past couple of months I’ve noticed more and more people on Facebook posting comments that appear to be political rabble-rousing. When I was younger I really never realized just how dirty and nasty people would get over politics! What astonishes me about this on Facebook is the fact that these people are supposedly “friends” with each other but they are slinging lies around like crazy. It makes me wonder if these people are just trying to upset other people because they think it is fun to upset other people, or if they really believe the lies that they are repeating. Are these folks really that ignorant? It scares me to think that these people might actually vote!
Dean shared this video on facebook this morning and I took the time to watch it. At first I thought it was going to be a joke of some kind (knowing my friend) but the video was really a very good and thought-provoking short film. It is a ten minute film; I encourage everyone to watch it!
