It has been about 1 year since we have been with State Farm Insurance. I am very please with them, and how they have treated my husband and I. Hubby found our agent through one of those insurance online qout pages, and State farm had the best deal. Well I was worried that our insurance would go up because of being with them a year, and me having a newer car. Our insurance went up when I got the new car, but it seems it dropped a couple of bucks over the last few months.
Why do I like State Farm, our agent was willing to tell dad he could no longer drive because it wasn’t safe for him. That they would not insure him because of his memory, vision, and hearing troubles. I was surprised he was willing to do that, and I told him so, and he said something along the lines of he can be mad at me and save you guys. It was nice he thought about the whole family and the stress it would cause us to have to tell dad no more driving. We could tell him the insurance company says no insurance for him. Before State Farm dad agent had told us to let dad have an accident and get him a junker car, this made my husband very unhappy with the company, and we decide it wasn’t worth staying. We felt dad life was not valued the way it aught to be. I told our agent about that conversation, and we chalked it up to the other company just wanted money.
So its been a year when normally rates go up and its still the same price or maybe a little less when you count the fact that I was in a old car and now in a newer one. I do not think we will find a new insurance company.

I wish when I was in high school I could have done a LSAT prep courses for my SATs some how I managed not to do prep courses at my high school. I wonder if I would have preformed better. This company has prep courses for several different things, like GMAT, LSAT, SAT, they also have Knewton, and customer service option for perspective customers. Sadly I can’t use this now because I am already done with college, but to bad I didn’t find it sooner.

I found a snack I like, they are small and easily used for watching calories. I think my dad would like these who passed away from Mesothelioma. I love the cheese in them, and the little crackers. I have normally one of those in the afternoon. Man I am dead tired today, hopefully tonight will not be a long night.
Well back to my snacks they come in little packages with about 5 crackers I always have enough cheese to have extra so I eat that too. I think these are one of my favorite snacks.

Last night on our way to the casino with dad we decided to stop at burger king. My husband is dieting and counting calories I am watching calories but not dieting the way he is. I only eat burger king once in a while, so I don’t need the most effective diet pill but I do need to be careful what I order. I have to admit I wasn’t very happy last night with customer service there, or attitudes. Seemed the workers were all acting like they really didn’t want to be there.
I ordered chicken fingers and it was not good, it lift a bad taste in my mouth and I needed to eat some strong candy to get read of the taste. The Dr. Pepper when it was picked was spilling water everywhere, so I couldn’t have that. I had the cheese tots to and just didn’t taste that good to me. I am not sure what happened last night but as far as Burger King was it wasn’t that great

The other day when I was in Wal-mart I decided to try the body essence hand sanitizer. It smells like Raspberries, and does not have alcohol. Since I work with kids and I am always washing my hands, they get dry and scratchy, not how if it anything like an accutane side effects. My hands at least smell nice and well my skin is sucking up the moisture in this stuff. I hope that this stuff will help my skin not get so dry. They also itch a lot from all the washing I do.
I don’t know how it’s reacting yet but I love the smell of it. This is the best smelling hand sanitizer I have ever used. It does have some kind of beads in it. It does feel like it has some nice quality so I guess in a few days I will post again about what I think. If my hands get worst then I know it not that great.

Recently I pick up the dog some mini dingo denta treats. Well they call them self long lasting nope, doesn’t last but 15minutes to a half hour for the dog I have. She does really like them and boy her tailing going 100 miles a hour against my pillow which she laying on. She likes throwing around most bones she gets which is funny because she such a small dog. With her energy I would never need any herbal diet pill.
The bones smell gross to me but hey if they help keep her teeth clean I can handle it. She seems to love the taste of them so all is good if she likes it. I do not let her chew on any bones unless I am home to keep a eye on her.

Last night hubby and I went to Olive Garden for dinner, it was to replace our date night. We have found it is challenging to eat there because of hubby mushroom allergies and my pork allergies. Olive garden is a nice restaurant, and we like the atmosphere but finding something to eat is always a challenge just like finding the
best prenatal vitamins. I ordered the chicken Marsala hubby had the chicken pramagaina with Alfredo sauce. It seemed to taste good for hubby and mine tasted very good even as lift overs.

On Friday night we take dad out to dinner every week. It gives him something to look forward to. Thank goodness that Don Pablos menu is big enough to make it have great choices so it does not get old quickly. Dad ordered his usual 2 beef tacos, hubby order the bbq chicken and I order chicken rellios and a cheese onion enchalada. Sorry can’t spell them. We had a young man as our waiter he did pretty good at taking care of us.
I have noticed I always order for dad, I feel bad doing it because I bet sometimes he feels like a kid but at Don pablos it very loud and dad doesn’t hear well to begin with. Well dad always like it there, and he eats all his food. I was the only one with lift over, but that normal sometimes.
The food and service was very good and I enjoyed our time there. I wonder what http://www.phenterminereview.com

Our year membership is almost over, and we are planning on renewing it. Tonight hubby and I went in to grab dad his spoon fulls, and me I decided to find some bras, they don’t have much selection but I found a package of 3 sport bras, for a little under 10$, and we took a quick look at someindustrial products along with music players and the little mini laptops for hubby. Boy those things have some serious battery life, let me tell you. Now we did see an Acer which battery life sucked worst them my Toshiba Laptop, which I think might actually last long and is bigger then it. Oh well, we didn’t buy anything tonight that hubby wanted to look at. I would like to see him get into a nice little laptop so he can spend time out here with me, when he wants to work on his computer.
Well we got to Sam club to night and I have to say their door people who greet some of them need to find another line of work. Very rude and almost pushy, but this one tonight wasn’t as bad. The gentleman who helped with the computer question was a Apple user, so he didn’t have much knowledge about PC stuff, but he was nice, and pleasant. But I hate to say this selling computers wouldn’t be a strong point, now if they had apple I bet he could get those sold pretty easily.
The cashier called me daddies little girl, because I have dad account and told him one cards dad and the other mine. What he doesn’t understand is daddy little girl is daddy little caregiver, who responsible for his well-being and if I am not careful, daddy little girl could get into a lot of trouble.
It’s important I keep dad and my account separate, sometimes it hard because we have the same bank, so the stupid cards are the exact same color, so I don’t get to just hand them a card and not worry about it. I’ve bounce my account many times the this year.

Today I told hubby I wanted to go out for Indian food. We went to Surabhi near us. It was pretty good. I will say their menu is almost overwhelming and hubby and I are not sure how the cook can keep up with the menu. It is a very big menu, now that being said they seemed to handle the menu great and our dinner was served to us hot and in a timely manner. Hubby had some chicken dinner, and I had Lamb. I was surprised at the cuts of lamb I got it was great.
The lamb was pretty tender and well seasoned and I know lamb is a meat if not seasoned correctly can taste bad and like hair loss click here to learn more about that. The only thing I have to say about the lamb it was a little bit on the dry side and I would have liked it a little less done, but that being said it was still yummy. I was happy with my dinner. It looked pleasant. They provided a lemon and I squezed it over the meat and it added a very nice flavor. It was seasoned perfectly for me, now I am not a big spice or seasoning fan, but this was seasoned good you could tell it was met.
I had something interesting for desert, it seemed to be drowned in a honey sauce and looked similar to a donuts whole. I think this was my favorite thing. I don’t know why but I liked it.
I tried some of hubby chicken it was medium spicy, it was good and wasn’t so spicy I couldn’t handle it. The most spicy thing was a dip they gave us with that fried bread thing that tastes like a potato chip at least that what it reminds hubby and I of. That was good, I didn’t care about the dipping sauce they gave us.
Customer service was great at one point in time I think we had 2 different people helping us and making sure we got what we needed, it went well because it seemed everyone worked in unity. Customer service was very good, and they where kind. Now if I can just remember that they do not serve Beef or pork products, I could stop asking and look stupid. I am so used to having to say I am allergic to Pork so make sure it not there, but Indians do not eat pork, they don’t eat beef neither, so I can eat what I want. Maybe one time I will try goat and see how it reacts to me.
I hope hubby and I can go back there again soon. We took dad there once and haven’t been back, because dad didn’t like it that much. Dad doesn’t like anything good. So it was nice for a change of pace. The serving sizes are large, so I was able to take some home for lunch this week which is nice.
