Homes need safes

The last time that my wife and I went for a week-long vacation trip, we had a close friend stay at our house to take care of the pets and the house. A few days after we had returned home my wife was telling me that she was very upset because she was missing some of her good jewelry. We looked high and low for the jewelry, but it was nowhere to be found. Eventually we decided that we were really rather foolish to have a house-sitter come into the house, and that were lucky that more things weren’t missing. I guess in this day and age it isn’t just stores and businesses that need safes, homes need safes too. Gone are the days when you could simply leave the doors unlocked and expect to come home to a completely un-touched and intact home.

So we have agreed that we need to start looking for the right kind of safe. I think that we should get one of the fireproof cannon safes that I found online last night. She wants to get a gun safe. Maybe we can find one safe that will serve both purposes!

Memory Foam Dogs Beds

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.

It’s a boy

How would you feel if your father started to smoke Black and Mild cigars? I was really surprised when we dropped by his house to find him smoking a cigar. I’ve never seen him smoke anything in his life! You could have knocked me over with a feather when I saw that! He told me that it was a gift from one of the guys at work, celebrating his new baby boy, and he decided to give it a try. Right about then Mom came home and chased him out of the house, telling him that she would not allow anyone to smoke anything in the house and she didn’t care WHO he was! Then she ran around the house waving a kitchen towel around, turning on the exhaust fans and opening the windows to get the smoke out of the house. Our dog Spooky, excited by all of the action and noise chased her around the house barking like crazy! I laughed until my sides ached!
