Baby afgans

I want to make lots of afgans to go on baby cribs. I have so much yarn just sitting around, that is waiting for me to whip up into some very pretty afgans!  I just need to make the time to get back into knitting or crocheting.  I am working on a baby afgan for my friends daughter that is due any day now!  I hope I get it finished in time!  I wish I could hand deliver it to her, but my hubby is being stubborn in that department, he doesn't want me to go to California.

Brands

Black & Decker (the corporation) is distinct from "Black & Decker" the brand; the latter is used by more than one corporation. In particular, "Black & Decker"-branded household products in the Americas (but outside of Brazil) are marketed by a division of Applica, a Florida-based corporation much smaller than Black & Decker Corporation.

The Black & Decker Corporation markets its name under various brands:

* DeWalt tools
* Porter Cable
* Delta Machinery
* Kwikset
* Baldwin
* Weiser Lock
* Price Pfister
* Emhart Teknologies
* Oldham Blades

You learn something new every day!  I knew that the food companies all used the same things, but packaged them different, just didn’t know this for tools as well. 

Wrinkles??

My time has come to start looking for the perfect anti wrinkle cream. I have hit my forties and the wrinkles are starting to show.  I need to nip this in the bud, so I can stay young looking.  People still don't believe that I am 40, so whatever I have been doing thus far has been working.  Thankfully!!  So I will keep on doing what I have been doing, but add in some fine tuning to keep them at bay.   I want to be one of those "young looking grandma's" when the time comes that one of my boys say "Mom…"

Mops

I have been hearing lots of these microfiber mops and have been thinking about getting one.

* Highest quality microfiber mopping material
* Pad designed to glide across floor with ease while damp.
* Safe for all surfaces.
* Grabs and holds dirt, dust and grease.
* Allows for chemical free cleaning
* Pad attaches to Mop Head with high quality Velcro backing
* Machine Washable – lasts hundreds of washings (wash and dry cold)
* Dimensions: 18" x 5"

I like that the pads are machine washable so there won’t be any need to buy all the refill pads.  It is designed to be used damp with water or another diluted cleaning solution. If using a spray floor cleaning solution you can spray the floor and follow up with the mop. Cleaning solution is not required. Get the pad wet and wring it out so that it is damp.

Memory

I have been using my laptop for over a year now, and I think its time I look into getting some more laptop memory. Now that we have to keep the desktop locked down at night, and when we aren't around, I find myself on the laptop more and more, so everything gets saved on here.  Our tax guy showed us this USB kind of memory stick, that I think I am going to look into.
