Got a great gift tip yesterday from a shopper. Her office pooled their funds to get their boss a gift card from Ticketmaster since she loves to go to various events during the year. Let me tell you, they chipped in some pretty major cash towards a card! They must really like their boss.
Check out the great coupon that Macy's has going on right now through December 3rd! Get 20% off with the Friends & Family discount, the same percentage they say that employees get.

Have you checked out the really cool Christmas indoor and outdoor decorations at Gemmy Industries? They're the creative folks here in the metroplex that make cool Yule products for the holidays and every other season. Their items can be seen on lawns and inside homes all across the country. I'm big on decorating for the ho...
How fun is it texting Mark while watching Dancing with the Stars tonight? He says that tomorrow night he's dancing the fox trot in the finale results show. He's also pulling for Helio to "keep the guys winning streak alive." I'm pulling for Helio as well. He by far did the best out of the three contestants. Mel did rea...

I know I did and I'm still going strong. I am a major bargain shopper and look for the best prices. But I do draw the line at one thing that I won't do.
Let's be thankful for our parents, grandparents, and others that came before us to pave the way to the life that we now lead. As you determine your purpose in life remember the hard work of those family members and even pioneers from all walks of life that made it possible for you to have a jump start for achieving your dreams. >> Continue reading:Let's be thankful for...
If the burbs seemed a little quieter on Wednesday night that's because every mom, and daughter from ages 4 to teens were at the Jonas Brothers and Miley Ray Cyrus concert in Fort Worth. I've never seen so much pink, hair extensions, and teeny tiny short skirts worn by moms and girls - plus with the overload of limos everywhe...
You'll LOVE this item that I recently came across. They're wooden crosses hand sculpted by artisans, Jack and Carol Scott of Frisco. Each cross is made out of wood from trees located all around the world. The idea for the crosses came from divine inspiration.

Did everyone have a fun Halloween? I wanted to share this pic of my friend, Cindy's daughter, Claire standing in front of our haunted house. Claire is a very cute and lively spirit on Halloween just like she is everyday!
