Scooter for mom

June 28th, 2009

Over the years my mom has found it harder and harder to get around the way that she likes and the kids have decided to get her a scooter for her birthday this year. I know that my mom would never spend the money to get herself a scooter so we kids have to step up and get this for her. Just looking at power wheelchairs has depressed my mom so we will need to be subtle in our approach for this gift. I know that once we get the scooter for her she will love it and we have found a great web site with a nice selection of power wheelchairs for us to choose from, The Scooter Store has a nice selection of all shapes and sizes of scooters and their price beats any we found here in Nashville.

Change the filter

June 28th, 2009

Early this morning our air conditioner quit putting out cool air and it is already almost 90 outside. As I got to checking it out I found out that I had forgot to change the filter on the air conditioner unit this month and that is what made it stop working. I changed the filter and let it sit for almost an hour to thaw out and then when I turned it on it worked and started to cool off the house right away. So next month I will change the filter on time, and I will not forget that again.

Sports memorabilia

June 26th, 2009

Today as we were cleaning out our spare room and the attic, I found a lot of my old baseball cards that I have had for many years. I know that now baseball memorabilia is at an all time high. I wish that I had all of the baseball cards and the other sports cards that I had when I was younger. I had a Pete Rose rookie card and several Mickey Mantle cards since he was my childhood idol and he was from Oklahoma along with Johnny Bench, and that made their cards special for me.

I started looking around the internet to see if the cards that I have left were worth any money and I found a great web site with a lot of information about sports cards. Authentic Sports Collectible has a great web site with so many different cards to choose from on their web site. It makes me want to get back into card trading and collecting. I would like to get my grandson into collecting sports cards, I like that idea much batter than the non sports cards that he grabs now and then when he is bored he throws them in the floor and moves to something else.

Pop King dies

June 26th, 2009

When I got home from work yesterday I was shocked to see the king of pop had passed away. Michael Jackson has never been one of my musical idols but his passing at the young age of 50 was very shocking. The world will be a worse place today with Michael Jackson how has made many people happy with his music, like I said I am not a fan but I too will miss him. God must of needed a new singer today.

Vacation time

June 21st, 2009

As we consider where to go on vacation this year one city keeps coming into the conversation, Wilmington, NC has been in this conversation for a couple of years now and I think it is a great time to visit this city to be honest looking at Wilmington NC vacation rentals is a great idea right now and we want to visit this wonderful city to see if we would like to retire there, when that time comes. I think a trip to this part of America would be a great trip for the family and a treat for me as well.
