Why do the spray bottles on products always break before you get to finish it? I don’t care if it’s a dollar store spray bottle or the expensive name brand it always happens. Why can’t they get it right and make the sprayer last at least for the one bottle. If by some miracle the sprayer is still working when the product is gone I save it in case it will fit on another bottle when this happens. Notice I say when this happens because it will! So what are some of our pet peeves??
Keep on rocking,
Monica

Anyone for a new car?
BRISTOL WELCOMES RACE FANS
Once again it’s time for the races at Bristol Motor Speedway. And they are giving away 10 Ford Mustangs. WOW what a prize. OK people tell everyone if that has been the main reason for going this year? (all possible winners need to be present to win) I’m sure this makes no difference to the true race fan but it can’t hurt either, right?
Keep racing,
Monica

Sometimes all it takes is a few minutes to make a good choice. This bagged lettuce was made by the local store here and states it’s 100% USA made where as the major name brand (DOLE) has the same product but it’s not 100% made in USA. Who wants foreign countries produce when we can get our own? If more than one place is listed who knows what percentage is made here? Another product is the Green Giant frozen veggies in a bag they are a USA product yet for some reason the frozen veggies in a box are from Mexico. Why?
From now on I’m going to be checking to see where the food is from. I hope more people will take a minute while food shopping to look at the label, for health and to support our USA food producers.
Keep healthy,

Hey there! Recently I was awoken by something flying around in my bedroom. Well my first reaction was I must be seeing things since I didn’t have my glasses on. But no my eyes were not tricking me it turned out to be a bird.
Bird in my attic
And that was not the first one over the next few weeks I had 3 more come in the house. Each time I opened a window to get them to fly out and the last time I caught the cat trying to sneak out. He gave me a scare since my cats stay inside. But I finally found a roofer who would do a repair and not the whole roof. It turned out there was a small opening along the gutter and that’s how the birds were getting in. Took a picture of one bird that was in the attic. So anyone else ever have something like this happen?

Has anyone seen the New Movie MAMA yet? I have and I’ll tell you a little about what I thought.
mama movie 2013
mama
It starts out where the father Jeffrey kills his wife and takes his girls who are only 1 and 3 on a wild car ride through snow covered roads. Of course, they slide off the road and find an abandoned cabin. They just got into the cabin when MAMA makes her first shadowy appearance, as she stops Jeffrey from harming the girls. This was good, getting some ghostly action so soon. It then jumps ahead five years when the girls are discovered and reunited with their uncle (who by the way is the same actor as the father). He and his girlfriend take them in. The girls are then placed under a doctor’s supervision and taught how to fit into society again. At first the adults believe MAMA is all a product of the older girl Victoria’s imagination. However, they soon learn that MAMA is real!!
Overall, I thought it was done well especially for a PG13 film. It held my interest but I have to say when it got to the end I was disappointed. I won‘t give it away but it didn‘t make much sense. It should have had a better plot. However, for fans of horror, suspense or special effects I would say give this one a go. It’s really not that bad. C+
The BEST aspect of this film was the two girls acting. They were very convincing and played their parts well. There were times throughout the film that I was totally amazed at how well the girls portrayed being animalistic, especially Lilly (Isabelle Nelisse) watch the trailer and see for yourself how she crawls around on the floor on all fours, her expressions, and grunts, she’s so young, so believable. I’m sure we will be seeing both of these girls in more films.
Great little actors
Keep watching the movies, Monica

Cold outside
January is no reason to feel the chill outside when you can read a good book. Here I am on Literarily Speaking as a guest author doing a letter to the readers as my character: Donna. This was a lot of fun and got my creative juices stirred up. take a read and see how one situation changed Donna’s life forever.

I saw this mat in a magazine and I have to totally agree that they put the right dog next to the picture.

If there are any Pug owners out there (like myself) I’m sure you will agree that Pug’s are known for not listening. They can be just like having a little kid around. Love to hear your comments on these silly, crazy dogs.
Keep rocking,

Happy New Year
We all seem to view the New Year as a fresh start and resolve to do all sorts of things. So what is your resolution? Some of the more common are; to lose weight, workout more, eat healthy, watch less TV, spend more time with family & friends, save money, make better use of free time, fix something around the house, paint a room, clean out a forgotten closet, and the list goes on and on. Personally, this year I decided NOT to make any since many of the things I plan to do get neglected anyway. I look back on last year’s list and think what was the point I still have piles of papers and magazines that I haven’t gone through. And that was at the top of the list.
Tip of the iceberg
So do you have something that you put on your list and want to share. Maybe something that you think is unique?
Have a wonderful 2013 and keep rockin,
Monica

Saw this picture and it reminded me of my favorite game which is Scrabble for those of you who have not seen my older posts. And my brother even gave me a really cute Scrabble mug for Christmas. My motto is “Have game will travel” I keep it in the car. LOL. And another favorite our pets here’s a really cute dog all dressed up for the New Year celebration!
really cute
Have a Happy and Healthy 2013 eveyone,
Monica
