Toys for Big Boys

Should I or shouldn't I give my hb a welding equipment for Christmas?  I know he tries to be handy at home but he's got tons of 'toys' that he doesn't even have time to use anymore. So should I add some more to them?  Well I know he's really good at doing things around the house, but only if he's got a lot of time. There are some projects that he wanted to do by himself but I guess I would rather hire people to do them for us -  like painting the house, clearing the basement with junk, and finishing the garage floor with epoxy.  Anyway, I'm still on the fence about the welding equipment, but I just might give in to it since I'm running out of time and ideas too of what to give hb this Christmas.

Holiday Shopping Interrupted

So I have been buried in my books for the past three weeks now trying to beat the deadline of my online course.  I know I've proven time and again that I work well and accomplish a lot when I cram, but this season is not a great time to cram!  There are so many distractions and I couldn't help but sneak out once in a while to put some Christmas spirit at home.  I have managed to decorate the tree with ornaments and lights, even put up the lights in the bushes on one freezing cold day.  Slowly but surely the house is keeping up with the festive mood of the season.  


Also I haven't set foot in the mall to buy presents for my family and friends.  Thank God for online shopping though, at least I was able to buy some gifts but my list is way not complete yet.  I know a friend is in the middle of upgrading her kitchen and she's looking for new sink to replace her old one.  Though I can't afford to give her one of those sienna sinks stainless steel sinks that she likes but I'm sure I could get her an accessory like the custom cutting board or grates.  These accessories are very useful and affordable I think I would get a cutting board for my sink too.

What to Buy Again

It's this time of the year again when I struggle to choose which Christmas present to get for my hb. He's this person that has gotten really hard to buy gifts for because he's got almost everything. He has this clip on shades that he snaps on his prescription eyeglasses, they're very convenient to use if he could only find them when he needs them. They're too small and a bit flimsy and so easy to lose. He has another prescription eyeglasses with Transition feature but not dark enough to give comfortable shade when its too bright and sunny. He has a pair of really good looking branded sunglasses but I guess another pair wouldn't hurt. I'm thinking of getting him a pair of stylish Tom Ford Sunglasses that he could keep handy in the glove compartment of his car. I'm sure he'll like them.

On Life Insurance

Some people would cringe on the thought of premature talk of death when you get life insurance, but to me it's just one of the best decisions one could ever make. Life insurance would give some form of security to beneficiaries in case of untimely deaths. There are a lot of features to consider when getting life insurance and one site I find very informative is Wholesale Insurance, you might want to check it out too.

Problem Area

So almost every morning I either have fresh fruit smoothie, fruits and cottage cheese, or oatmeal with fresh fruits for breakfast. Aside from trying to lose weight, I also try to lead a healthy life as I'm not getting any younger. It's been a struggle for me to maintain the weight that I want and I really try hard. My bone structure is actually small so I don't have problems with my limbs they're really thin, but my main problem area is my tummy. I always dream of having flat abs and its hard to achieve that goal. I'd say I need natural appetite suppressants to really control my cravings for food or I just need to visit the gym more often. Either one should work.

Retirement Luxury

One of the things that my hb and I would love to have when we retire is an RV. My hb always tease me that I also pack our 'house' when we travel because I can't travel light. I always think way ahead like if there's an emergency I'm always ready. So an RV is so perfect for us so then I can actually pack our house! Anyway, hopefully when that time comes we have saved enough to travel the places we've dreamt of seeing. We love to travel hassle-free so a 5th wheel insurance is an excellent choice to have for peace of mind when travelling.
