Walgreens Saline Nasal Spray

Recently I got Walgreens Saline Nasal spray, because I had some allergy problems and wanted to try to deal with it before using something stronger. I remember the days I used to do inventory and needing to use barcode scanner those where always harder on small items like nasal sprays. Well back to the spray, it worked pretty good for my allergies and helping clear some of the stuff out, but now with my cold it is not helping as much. Maybe this is good for allergies because it helps flush it out of your nose, and helps with the dryness that some of the allergy meds give, but it not doing it job as far as with my cold.

Prep Courses

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.

Body Essence Moisturizing Hand Sanitizer

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.

I am a advil user

When I hurt my knee and hip I found out I couldn’t use Tynol, because of the reaction it gave me. I know they claim sometimes for people with rheumatoid arthritis, it’s good but I can’t do it. I like Advil because I know it works for my pains, I take it for everything. When my mouth hurts because of bad wisdom teeth, or for cramps or because of the weather making my body hurt.
So I know which one to take now, I have friend who use Tynol, and they claim its the only thing that works.

Ordering Flowers on line

This weekend was my grandma birthday and I decided it would be nice to send her some flowers from 1800flowers.com. I spend 69. on the flowers, it was nice and had a bear that went with it. Well, they sent me conformation telling me it was on the delivery truck but not that it was delivered. They are lucky Grandma has honest neighbors or she might not have gotten her flowers and I would have been very mad, and not just disappointed.
What I liked about flowers.com is I was able to order granny her birthday present and get it there the next day with out being charge additional fees. I was happy about that. I was happy I got conformation in my email telling me it was on the truck. Okay this is good. Well Grandma called me later that night. She said it was beautiful, so I am happy with the quality they gave.
What I do not appreciate even though I put on the mailing slip it was going to an Apartment building, Grandma is 83 years old. I didn’t have her security code but I do know that it’s on the wall from the last time I visited grandma. I am just relieved it was delivered the rest of the way by one of her younger neighbors, I believe it’s a retirement community.
So what I would have liked seeing is them calling grandma or calling her home phone number to let her know there was something at the front door for her.
At least I didn’t have to match her flowers with her kitchen floortiles, like some people I know that everything has to match perfectly up to the ceiling.

Hautman Brothers collection: American Eagle

I got the American eagle which is in a oval my goodness talk about challenging. This puzzle was one of the harder ones I have done, but normally I don’t pick many puzzles which are oval. I had trouble with the outside pieces and sometimes there were pieces which looked like they belonged but then soon you found out they really did not fit there. I will say I liked the puzzle and good thing I don’t need a Plano dentist form all the thinking I did on this puzzle. I will say it is beautiful, and I will probably look for more puzzles from this person, since while I don’t have classes for a while, I need to keep my brain active.
I got it made in less then a week, even though it was challenging. I almost lost once piece of the puzzles some how it ended up across the room. Dad ask me if I was going to glue it together and I told him no I want to be able to do it a few more times then I will glue it up. It did come with a nice picture in the box, so maybe if dad wants the bird hanging I will just use that picture for him. The picture is just as pretty as the puzzle, so it should be a good compromise.

I need a new book

This weekend Hubby and I went to Boards Books, because I needed a book for reading. I haven’t gotten my normal emails from them, which I normally get an email every week with deals. Not this week, oh well. Something happened that normally doesn’t happen the cashier told us that we had a 30% off special and that it was applied to the book. Oh good I didn’t know that but I will take it happily. I love going to boarders and finding good books for reading. Sometimes I have been advised on what book is good and boy normally they have been right on target which is important to me. If I am going to read aphentermine reviews I want it to have what I want.
We walked out with 3 paper back books and I told hubby they aught to last for 2 weeks, or so. There is one book I want to get but it’s so short that I feel I need to get other books with it.

Mainstays Candles

This week the electric was turned off, I forgot to pay the bill. Ops oh well, so we went a night with out electricity. I ended up needing to get some candles which where safe to use, and wouldn’t drip wax all over the place, I didn’t have much money to spend on candles, I had about 15 that I could spend. I looked at a couple of places, and I was only going to be able to maybe 2 candles which would drip all over the place. I didn’t want to go to far away from home so I tried the corner store first, but found very quickly they did not have what I wanted. Well I finally decided to run over to Wal-mart and look what they had figuring I might be able to get at least 3 candles if I picked right, and I could use some of the existing candles I had in the apartment which would mean not enough like to go around. Well, I got to Wal-Mart and found the candles. I found some Mainstay candles, in a little jar for only 97 cents. I was shocked, I could have gotten some bigger jars for 3.50 but felt getting 12 jars was better. So I got 2 of each scent. My favorite one is Hazelnut Cream, it reminds me of cookies or flavored coffee. I put 2 in the bathroom 6 in the living room and 4 in hubby room and bathroom, so there was plenty to go around and I didn’t even use them all. So I guess we have some extra candles, which is great because maybe I can burn some when people come over in the bathroom make it look nicer in there. To bad acne cleanser don’t work for making things nicely.
I was surprise how long they burned I lite them at about 430 and burned them until close to 10pm and then burned them again in the morning. So far none of the candles are still close to 3/4 full still. So these little candles really do last quiet a while.

Bloomington Pet Supply Plus

I am not sure how the dog goes through her slippers for outside so quickly but she has a talent for it. We tried the other 2 pet stores which are local and it was just picked over. I figured it wouldn’t hurt trying Pet Supply Plus, and I found more then just doggy booties I found a cat scratch post and booties for a lot less then I found them other places.
We went in there, and it was a good thing we did. I got my 2 pairs of booties for the dog, now her paws will be dry in them. They look like gloves, but will probably be torn through just like all other booties to bad they can’t be dealt with like a belt in a rv with a rv repair. They are ugly booties but they will serve the purpose they were intended for.
I also got a kitty scratching post which was 2 ft tall, and is made with rope maybe otis can’t tare through this one as quickly as the other one. It looks pretty steady, so the 20 pound monster won’t be able to destroy it quickly. We had a pretty good experience there but there was no one to answer questions unless you sought them out.

Just over a week

It was hard finding a car that was within my price range, but I found one in my range after talking the person down a little bit. This car is better then any water softener or anything I’ve owned as far as cars go. I have a Kia Rio Cinco, it’s a mercury green color I believe. I am not able to tell colors but it looks like green. Lets see the biggest problem I have is not know what inch of windshield wiper blade but that easy enough to figure out.
The car is a little compact wagon, and has a 4 cylinder engine. It’s a car from Asia or somewhere over that way. I am not 100 % sure but I am pretty sure it’s a good make. I looked on a review site for the car and everything in liability was ranked high, or green. I took it for a test drive and I have to admit at first I was worried about it being a 4 cylinder engine because the last one I drove was not a pleasant experience grant it different maker. This little car has some get up and go, and boy does it heat up quickly. Everything in the car is manual, which is fine with me. I have to roll up the windows by hand, I guess it will be easier for dad not to roll down the windows accidentally like he does in hubby car. I don’t mind rolling down the windows on my own, now the mirrors those are a whole other problem. It’s hard to adjust those because they are manual too, but that’s okay.
I got a good deal on this car I spent 3100$, which is a little more then I wanted to spend but I was able to talk the guy down from his original price. The only thing which would have brought the price of the car up is a 6 disc CD player, there is no tape deck. The gas tank is 11.5 or so and I get about 26 miles per gallon when city driving which is amazing. It nice to finally have a car I can trust to get me safely back and forth to work and know I have heat. This is the first car which I do not have to unlock the passenger door to get into the car, and that I have a good heater. I am very glad I got this car, and I really do like it I think I am just about sold on Kia’s it seems to be a very good brand of car.
