Happy 100th Birthday

What do you buy for a person on their 100th birthday? I have a great-aunt who turned 100 years old. She is perfectly coherent and still does her own shopping. Can you believe it? 100 years old! What a great inspiration! That's Life!

Music Lover

I am a music lover and usually listening to it wherever I go. Mostly you will hear country or classical when you are around my house. But today I discovered the MP3 from Amazon with clips of every kind. It is so cool! I am listening to 7 Things with Miley Cyrus, right now. But there is a whole list I can go through. You can too, because I just downloaded clips to my website. That's Life!

Using Sunscreen

When it comes to using sunscreen, beware! Increased risk of skin cancer can be the result of a bad sunburn. Your skin can be damaged by too much sun. Try limiting the time you spend in the sun and use sunscreen. Helpful tips to help protect yourself from sun rays include:

1. Anytime you go outside for 20 minutes or more, use sunscreen.

2. Start 15 to 30 minutes before you go outside to apply sunscreen.

3. The sun protection factor should be at least 30, and should be a broad spectrum for blocking ultraviolet rays.

4. Sunscreen should be applied every two hours, even on cloudy days and after swimming. Be sure to apply it to every exposed area of the body.

That's Life!

A Reader

Today is a day for relaxing and just plain being lazy. It is gloomy and has been pouring down rain all day. My DH is on one side of the living room sitting in his favorite chair, curled up with one of his books. A western, I think. I have been sitting on the other side of the room, in the my easy chair with my feet up, with my bowl of popcorn and one of my favorite books by Janette Oke. We are avid readers. I read everything that I can get my hands on as well as on the Internet. I saw a pretty nifty thing on Amazon.com the other day. It was called a, Amazon Kindle wireless, portable reading device. It gave you access to 130,000 items. Ah, technology. That's Life!

Bath Day

Today is bath day for my dogs. It isn't a hard chore, just takes patience and time, as all of you dog lovers are aware of. I am always looking and trying out new products on my dogs. Living in a tropical climate means that I am constantly fighting fleas and ticks. I used to use a product that came from the Vet and it worked pretty good for about one month. A few months ago I found a new product that is natural and made with spices. It smells like cloves and makes the house smell good, like Christmas time. Anyway, it works for 3 months and isn't too expensive either. While I was surfing around on the net trying to find something new, I found this site that has everything that you can imagine.

Dreamers

Dreams can be life savers on dull days. One dream that my DH and I agree on is to have a motorhome. We would like to try living in it for a couple of years to save money. Don't know how yet, but I think it will happen within the next year. Lots of people are making it happen due to the high costs of living and the freedom factor. It doesn't hurt to dream. Maybe it will come true. That's Life!

It Happens

Don't know what is going on with my PC today, but something is happening. This morning it kept rebooting. Then when everything finally settled down and was working, it froze up. So that happened about 5 times. After a morning of pure frustration, I called it a few names (after all, it has a mind of its own, so I have the same right) and left the room for a while. This afternoon I got brave enough to tackle it again. It would only come on in safe mode, I don't know how many times that happened. Ok, one last try, I turned it over to Norton WinDoctor. Guess what? My PC works now. I am one happy camper. Thats Life!

Back To Square One

I have been working at home, as an on-line digital proofreader for a little over two years. Now I got word that the job has ended. Really liked the job too. So it is back to square one, looking for work again. I have written articles from time to time, as a way to supplement my income. Now I will need to work harder at article writing. That's Life!
