It's Official!

So it is official...Angelina and Brad Pitt are having twins. It's been rumored that she was pregnant with twins when she appeared to be showing much bigger for how far along she was in the pregnancy. She made it official in an interview for her newest movie coming out. Now, the question...are she and Brad married? This is another rumor that's been circulating, and not that I really care...but am curious to know if the rumors are true.

This Summer

Last night was so nice. I got home from work earlier than normal...so I actually got to spend sometime with the family! I miss that when we're in the busy season...and enjoy every opportunity I have to be home with them!! This summer will be nice because work will slow down and I'll be home more. We'll get to go on walks, go to the lake...do all sorts of fun things together! I can't wait!

Jewelry

I enjoy finding new sites and letting others know about them when I think they are worth sharing. Recently, one site I am referring to is ViaLuxe.com. This is a site dealing with luxurious jewelry! Have you ever heard of them before? They offer a site for people to search through a very diverse selection of jewelry...everything from rings to pendants and necklaces...even a section about blancpain watches! They also offer a page specifically dedicated to laying out the brands offered in alphabetical order. This is a very organized site, and one many will enjoy shopping at. In looking deeper into this site, I really liked the fact that through it your brought together with dealers through the Dealer Locater tool. If you are someone who not only loves jewelry, but also finding a company that's trustworthy and dedicated to excellence and customer service...then this is the site for you!! When you get the chance, I strongly recommend you head over and check it out! You'll be amazed at their selection of quality pieces and the user-friendliness of their site! I know I was!! That's why I wanted to share it with all of you.

Busy Season

This busy season is really wearing on me fast. I work such long hours, by the time I get home all I want to do is go to bed. At least there is a light at the end of the tunnel....my boss told me that we are coming to the end of the season already so that's good! I don't mind the money I make...but the hours are no fun at all. It will be nice to be home with my family at nights again and see my daughter...who is always sleeping when I leave for work, and sleeping when I get home.

Favorite Television Show

Tonight my favorite television show is on. American Idol...anyone else a watcher? I like when it's on on Tuesday nights, but it's especially good on Wednesday nights because this is the elimination night. I don't like to see anyone go, as they are all great singers, but it's fun to see if your predictions are right...and see who is that much closer to becoming the next American Idol! All three had ok nights last night...none of which seemed outstanding to me. I think David Cook has the best chance of staying in the competition, while Syesha and David A. are on the fence...we'll just have to see what happens.

Symark Software

Symark Software is the leader when it comes to providing UNIX and Linux security administration solutions. Were you aware of that? I wasn't really until not that long ago. I read an announcement today made by them, that their powerbroker and PowerPassword-User Management Edition access control solution will support the new HP Integrity servers. This doesn't mean much to those who don't understand technology, but to me it makes perfect sense and I think it's great!! Don't you?! They're ensuring that organizations safeguard information and comply with federal regulations. If you're like me and enjoy learning about this type of thing, then check out their site to learn more today!

Walmart Run

It seems like there is always something going to get at Walmart. Jen and I get groceries about every two weeks...but we find ourselves running back and forth to Walmart during that time several times for something. We both grew up in a smaller town than we live now...neither of which had a Walmart. It's hard to remember what we did when there wasn't one around. I mean, where did we go when we needed something last minute. All I know is I'm thankful we actually have one nearby.

American Idol

The past couple of weeks I have missed American Idol because of work. This is a show that Jen and I both enjoy watching together...so I'm hoping that we'll get to watch it together tonight. There are four contestants left...all of whom are really good. I'm excited because tonight I'm off at a descent time and will get to watch it. I don't know if I'll be home tomorrow night or not yet...depending on the weather...but either way...I'm glad I at least get to see them sing tonight.

Iamshaman.com

Many modern-day spiritual explorers lean towards the word entheogen or ethnobotanical...referring to the plants that have healing properties supposedly. One such property being Kanna. The oldest known entheogen is Amanita Muscaria as well as Ayahuasca. Others are Hawaiian baby woodrose, morning glory, and the blue lotus. Ever heard of any of these?!? I came across a site offering things like this, www.iamshaman.com. If you'd like to check it out, feel free. Just know that even though people think so...they do not offer legal highs, and they only sell to adults! You'll find that their site not only offers the products, but also articles and further information on this topic.

Time Flies!

Jenna and I were talking about this recently, and it's so true!! So many people always tell you that time will go by quickly once you have kids and to enjoy ever moment. Before we had Kaelyn, we did not think much of it. Now, however, having a child of our own...we know exactly what they're talking about! Kaelyn turned 6 months old on May 1st. Although that is still very young, the time has just flown by. We can now relate to the comment on "time flying by" and have a whole new appreciation for what they mean. In the past 6 months Kaelyn has changed and grown so much!! It's been an absolute must to have the camera by our sides at all times just so we don't miss all of the changes she's going through. We are definitely taking the advice to "enjoy each and every moment" because it truly does go by within the blink of an eye!

Dennis Rodman...arrested

Whenever I get the chance, I like to watch ESPN. I am a sports fan, so this channel is probably one of my favorites. Recently I heard a news story that wasn't so great on this channel though. Dennis Rodman was arrested! I hadn't heard about this until today. Supposedly his girlfriend had drank too much and they got into an argument he grabbed her or something and left bruises on her arm. I guess if he really did do this, then it's good he was arrested for a domestic dispute. It's too bad that things like this go on so often.

Monaco

Monex Company is America's leader in the investment of precious metals. They have been around for over 30 years and continue to satisfy their customers every step of the way. Monaco Rare Coin, a rare coin dealer, is a part of the Monex family of companies, and is known for their variety of resources for investors and collectors when it comes to rare coins. I always thought it would be fun to collect and invest rare coins. How about you? If so, you should look into Monaco as well! They have experienced and knowledgeable professionals who will help you with anything you need. Check them out today and see what you think. You won't be sorry you did!

What to eat?!

I really need to decide what I'm going to have for supper since American Idol is on in the next couple of hours. I have quite a bit that I need to get done around the house, so something quick would be ideal. I'm not sure if I should have leftovers, or just throw in a pizza or something. Deciding on what to have is always difficult...I just don't know?! I think I may ask Jen and see what she feels like. She's usually good at helping me decide.

News

I recently read a blog that discussed the happening of a stalking case turned in by Uma Thurman herself. I hadn't heard of it until I read the post...but basically there was a man stalking her and actually sending her a card with a very disturbing image on it. She was kind of freaked out, and turned him in. The trial is going on right now actually, and if this man is found guilty, he faces up to a year in prison. I hope he gets that full year...as he deserves it if he truly was stalking her in this manner. How bizarre and disturbing!

Midwest Auto Recycling

I enjoy surfing the web sometimes when I get the chance...and finding new and interesting websites. Today I was looking up some things for cars for work, and came across midwest auto recycling. They are a company and site that specializes in used engines and transmissions. Now, some companies that offered this type of thing I might be a little bit leery of, but not Midwest Auto Recycling. They offer the strongest warranty nation wide and all the miles are CARFAX verified...a huge plus! The engines are all started, inspected, tested and cleaned. All of the transmissions are test driven, inspected and cleaned as well. If you'd like to learn more about them like I did, head over to their site today.

Internet Company

Jen and I have been having a little issue with our internet provider lately and it's quite frustrating. They were running a special promotion for 12 months which gave us a deal on or payments. Now wouldn't you think that 12 months...meant 12 full months?! Well...on month 10 we noticed that our bill started to go up a little. Then month 11 it went up a little more...then month 12 it went up a lot! I called them after having called the other two times already, and asked them why this hadn't been changed...that we were on a 12 month promotion...not 10. They said that this is the 12 month deal and that it gradually goes up at month 10. This definitely is not what I signed up for and in my opinion is false advertising! Grrr....

Social Networking

Do you or someone you know enjoy social networking. I don't get too into it, but my wife just loves it. She has a lot of friends who are also part of these different social network sites, so it's fun for her to keep in touch. I also have lots of friends on these sites, but just am not on the internet enough to keep in touch with them. It seems like something that girls enjoy more than guys...am I right?! Maybe it's just me, I don't know?!?

Paintball

I remember playing paintball with friends when I was in high school. It was actually a really fun sport. I was reminded of the good ol' days when I came across a web release about ZephyrPaintball.com. They have paintball and airsoft gear, offered at very low prices with free shipping. Paintball is a popular sport...especially among young people and it's important they have the right gear and equipment. That's where this site can help. You'll be able to find everything you need...from paintball guns, to paintball goggles, hats, paintball tanks, hoodies, and more! Check it out today and see if this is the site you've been looking for. I really thought they had a lot to offer, and I think you will as well.

Great Mom

Jenna has done such a good job getting Kaelyn on a schedule. It took some time, but now Kaelyn is down to a set three naps a day (probably will drop to two very soon), and is eating at set times as well. She is such a good mom, and I want her to know that...not only this weekend on Mother's Day, but every day of the year. It takes patience to be a stay at home mom, as well as selflessness...and she has both. She does such a great job...I'm so proud of her and always knew that she'd be a great Mom!

updates

Jen and I have been having a lot of fun doing little things to our home to make it more "us"! We have put up a wall to divide one room into two...making a nice little office now. We've also replaced some light fixtures and plan to do some remodeling in our basement this summer...including working on our half bathroom down there. The kitchen and our bedroom both could use a few changes...which we plan on doing little by little. It's sure fun to own our home and be able to do the updates that we want to it, isn't it?!

Wedding Flowers

Wedding Flowers can be really expensive and stressful to find. If you're in this situation, why don't you take a look at FiftyFlowers.com. They make it easy to find all kinds of flowers...everything from calla lilies, to rose petals, to peonies or bulk roses. You'll get the flowers at wholesale prices, which are a steal if you ask me!! Maybe you're lookin gfor bouquets, table arrangements, centerpieces or accessories...they have all of that too! Don't just take my word for it though. Head over there today and check it out for yourself! You won't be sorry you did. Make planning your wedding as stress-free as you possibly can...and save money where you can too.

Busy Season

It looks like even though it rained today...the rest of the week is supposed to be really nice. I'm happy about that because we really need to get some things done at work. I work in agriculture so right now we're in the busy season and depend on the weather being nice. Some days it goes our way, and others it doesn't. We just take advantage of the days that are nice, and prepare for those days when it's not nice out. So far the season has been going pretty well.

Blogging

I just love blogging for money. One of my favorite companies to blog for is Blogitive. I like them because they give many opportunities during the week for people to make money. They put them out there and give everyone a chance to grab them. They only pay 5 dollars a piece, but for as many as they put out there that's fine with me! I think I probably make the most money with this company over any of the others. I especially like how they give you two days to do the posts. I really appreciate that being a working person.
