I’m happily ensconced in one of my favorite Lift Chairs in my beautiful villa on the shores of Cox Bay, near Tofino, in beautiful British Columbia, in Canada. I’ve had my villa for a number of years, but due to a sever debilitating disease have recently become more & more disabled, and thus have become almost wheelchair bound. Luckily though, someone invented these marvelous contraptions called chair lifts, which means I can get out of my chair with no help, and into my wheelchair & potter around my villa enjoying the majestic West Coast scenery. Wow, is that a whale I see out there?

I really like to travel and it has been the one thing that has kept me sane in an otherwise seriously boring job I can’t leave although I now work 70 hours a week for 20% less pay. But at least I have a job. I have had to cut back quite a bit as I see another paycut coming soon in the form of more working hours if that’s even possible. I started looking at layaway travel plans and was really amazed how much I could pay for up front without ever using a credit card. It make budgeting so much easier.

I am trying to find a comfortable pillow that will give me a good night’s sleep not just one night but every night.  I have tried a lot of different types of pillows. Some will work for a while but then within a short period of time-usually a week-and my neck pain would return. It was very frustrating. Not only wasn’t I getting any sleep, I was waking up irritable in the morning and kept throwing pillows that werent working in the bottom of the closet for the next garage sale. Finally, I found a buckwheat therapy pillow.  What a difference a good night’s sleep makes!

I used to have a real problem with allergies.  Not really what you would think, though. I really didn’t see the difference in the springtime  or in the fall, it was more of a constant.  I was always popping claritan just to make it through the day. Then a friend of mine told me to look into allergy mattress covers. I did not know that such an item existed. Well I started pricing them and found one for a really reasonable cost. It makes all the difference.  I am not constantly having to take allergy medicine that puts me to sleep.

Our family tries to make a trip to ‘Disney World every year.  And while everybody else is doing rides and such, I am on the search for the neatest Disney Cuckoo Clocks I can find. Depending on what movie is popular that year, there was probably a new cuckoo clock designed just for Disney.  It is always interesting what the different clock designers come up with. Some are really crazy. But I try and get one every time we go down to Orlando. I hope someday they will be worth some money. Plus its more fun than buying stock and watching the price go down.

I hope that by doing our part for Going Green  so that my grandchildren won’t have to deal with trashy roadside parks and that prices wont’ climb as high because we as a country have to buy all of our raw materials from somewhere else.  I know that is all very lofty thought in the scheme of things but from a practical standpoint, recycling saves money. I always watch the prices and if I need water, I bring my own jug. If I can save 25 cents at a grocery store, I bring my own bag.  I really believe its the little things that count.

You can also take the help of Internet to buy comforters of your unique specifications. It is not always possible for the stores nearby to provide you the exact type of comforters you are looking for. So, what should you do in such cases? Should you be content with the comforters that you can find? No, you have another option in the form of online stores of comforters. These online stores are always willing to note down your specifications for the comforters and then they will make the exact type of comforters you were looking for. You can also find discounts and sales on several of such online stores
