Let The Games Begin

I just heard that the Redskins are gearing up for tomorrow which will be their first pre-season game of this up and coming professional football season. I can’t believe that football season is so close to starting all ready. Next thing you know it will be Thanksgiving and then of course Christmas will be consuming us all in no time. Really the only good thing about fall and winter is football, I’m glad that I have subscribed to the sunday ticket with my satellite provider, Direct TV. I always enjoy having friends over on Sunday’s for a good game and a good time with plenty of munchies and loads of cold beer. I have a good sized flat screen TV that makes watching the games a much better experience then it was before I invested in a big screen like I did.

My good friend, Donna from work also enjoys football, she has the Cox cable sports package and she likes to have people over on Monday for the Monday games, so it works out real well for everyone involved. We have a lot in common, other than just working at the same place and we have become pretty darn good friends these past couple of years.

So which ever is the most convenient – be it cable sports or satellite sports between the two of us we’ve got it covered. I hope the Redskins start the year with a major win over the Buffalo Bills, guess we will find out tomorrow, let the games begin!

Cable Channels

I’m so glad that I have a good amount of channels available on my current cable package. Lately I’ve been watching more and more shows on the Syfy Channel, but The Comedy Channel is still my favorite. I’m always in the mood for a good laugh……

Security Equipment

My Dad is so upset due to watching so many news programs day in and day out. He sees all of the really bad and negative stuff that is blasted on the boob tube and he really gets stressed out, bless his heart. I wish that he would watch more comedy programs and bring some laughter into his life. His major concern right now is all of the home break ins that are on the increase. So many people are getting desperate for money that they are turning to crime in order to keep food on the table and a roof over their heads. And that isn’t even touching the drug problems that many people now have because of all of the issues with our lovely economy.

Dad wants me to look into one of the ADT security systems that he has been reading about. There are many homes that are now sporting one of ADT’s yard signs indicating that they have a security system installed for their protection. He thinks that I should have a top notch security video camera for my safety, while I think a big dog would probably do the job just as well.

He has just now sent me the link that talks about their backup battery and equipment guide so that I can become familiar with the products and their current promotions. I know his intentions are good and I love him for it, so I will look it over and see what it is all about and report back to him as soon as possible. I gotta keep my Dad happy. He is the only one that I have.

Dirty Water

I can’t stand the way that my water looks, smells and tastes. After I take my daily bath and let the water run out and drain there is a lot of black grainy junk left in the tub. Looks like I’m going to need to contact a water service company. I’ll take a look online and see what I can find in my area.

Time for a Make-Over or Two

I’ve been itching to start a make over for my bedroom. I’d really like to get some new Bed Linens to start with. I’ve been looking online for the past couple of weeks at some of the Comforters that are out now, some nice colorful ones that I’ve set my eyes on. Of course if I purchase these items I may as well look into some nice new colorful Bed Pillows to really them off nicely.

It’s been a long time since I done anything for my bedroom. I think the last thing I did was to buy some new bed side Lamps that I found at the flew market. I love going to the flea market but some thing I do prefer to purchase brand new. With the Internet bringing so many things right to our finger tips there is just so much to choose from.

After take care of a few things in the bedroom, I’ve been thinking that the bathroom has been looking pretty shabby and certainly use some spicing up. There are plenty of Home Accessories sites online that I’m sure I’ll be checking into. I’ll look for places that offer free shipping and that accept PayPal, those are two important factors in making my decision.
