Solar Powered Cell Phones

Seems that Motorola has applied for a patent for a solar powered cellphone and although it will probably not be enough to fully recharge the phone it will help for those days when you just can not plug in to the wall.

I’m very interested to see just how good it works and how much it charges for I certainly would consider buying one when it I can hear a bit more about it and see if it really is worth getting into. Anything I can do in order to keep thing as GREEN as I can in my little world.

Paintball Wars

Talk about a rush! The paintball war games I participated in last week are so cool! They’ve changed quite a bit over the years since the first time I ever played. We were never that organized nor did we have the advantage today’s gamers have when it comes to paintball equipment. I found this fabulous paintball guns and accessories site and if you’ve ever wanted to try your luck at paintball then this is the perfect place to get your gear for the game!

I’ve decided to go with a complete new outfit myself, and since they offer what I think is the best in paintball guns, as well as other needed name brand paintball related gear, I’ve chosen one of several packages they have to offer, called the tippmann x7 package. It’s a great sniper version package that offers what I’m looking for in a paintball outfit. The best thing of all, besides that they’re the better prices, is that they offer totally FREE shipping! Now you just can’t beat that.

New Mattress

It was just a matter of time for my teen aged daughter to want a larger bed and mattress than she has been using all of her life. Lately she has been crawling in my bed with me at night, which is fine with me, I love having her by my side all night long, and since she has matured she no longer kicks and tosses about like she did when she was a wee one when I used to keep her in the bed between her father and me.

So I’m looking out for a good mattress sale and of course I’m only looking online since I have no intention of running all over town to all of the various bed and mattress stores that our town has to offer. A customer of mine suggested trying out coasttocoastmattress.com to see if they had any full sized mattress sale offerings, which I promptly did and was glad to see that they do have some good promotions going on right now, along with Free Delivery, which is a big money saver that I look for.

Something else that I liked about this site is that that have a Mattress Advisor tool for us to put in our preferences then they will in turn generate suggestions for your individual needs and wants.  A nice touch I have to admit.

How It’s Made

One of my favorite shows to watch on TV is “How It’s Made” which comes on the Science Channel almost every day. No matter what it is that they are showing us, I learn something interesting, fascinating and/or entertaining, which I can’t say about any other show that my current satellite provider offers us.

Husband Travels

Thanks for the guest post by Jo Levy

My husband recently got a new job and there is quite a bit of travel involved with it. He is out of town at least two weeks every month and sometimes more than that. I am glad that he got the new job because it pays more and we have better insurance. Sometimes I get to travel with him too and I really like to do that when he has to travel near the beach. However, when I am home alone for a few weeks at a time, I get a little nervous. I do not feel as safe when he is not there. Every time I hear a creak or bump at night I get worried that someone might be in the house. I even jump when I hear the ice maker start making ice. We decided to go to HOMEsecurity101.com to find info on having a home security system installed. He and I both would feel more comfortable knowing that the security system is activated when I am home alone. Although I would rather just have my husband at home, I am glad that I will feel safer when he is gone.
