I hate this mailbox post. I can't believe I paid nearly 80 bucks for it, either. I went out to check my mail one day and my mailbox was lying on the ground. It was still attached to the log that had served as its post for several decades, but the log itself had been broken off at the ground level. I was mad that whoever had run into it hadn't fessed up, but I live in a very rural area a...

This little tool is the slickest solution you can imagine for the trial of trying to set posts or horizontal bars while working alone.The Johnson Post Level is made of hard plastic.  It is simply two “slabs” at right angles to each other with three small bubble levels mounted along its three planes.  There is a rubber band attached to one side which you slip around your po...

 Shaving is a chore. It really is. And after you shave, you have to wash up, and then put on some lotion to get rid of the razor burn, and then maybe put some more on since it still burns. Not so with the Neutrogena Post Shave lotion (maybe they wanted to avoid the title 'After Shave lotion'?). Here's why. The lotion itself doesn't look very dramatic, as its simple, wh...

The "boys" (my two male kittens) enjoy this Sisal Cat Scratching Post. Cats and kittens love to sharpen their claws. Our kittens are no exception. I found that they were using the side of my couch, my carpet and a number of other things in my house to sharpen their claws. I didn't want to have them declawed, because frankly, I think that is inhumane, but that is another topic. So,...

We have a large cat.  Large cats need large scratching posts.  I really like the Kitty Condo brand 24" scratching post.  We once made the mistake of buying a shorter scratching post by the same brand. It did not work out at all for our cat.  He was too tall and had a difficult time using that post. Plus, the shorter post would fall over when our cat was trying to&n...

 The older I get, the more important the care of my skin becomes to me. That is why I try to use the best and affordable skincare products that are on the market. Neutrogena is one of my favorite brands of skincare products. The Neutrogena Razor Defense Post Shave Lotion for Men is definitely my favorite aftershave lotion that I have ever used. I have sensitive skin. I also have very dark ...

I get regular subscriber to home delivery of daily and sunday to the Washington Post of Watergate fame. I travel abit and have read many local city newspapers but many of them disapoint beyond local coverage. Unbeatable US Political coverage with a slight liberal slant and Great US governmement news. Very good sports, style, International, business, health, and of course metro.  They have ...

When I sell handmade jewelry on Etsy and ebay, I use these bubble mailers from Canada Post.  These mailers are plastic inside and out and are self-sealing.  The seal is very good, making these little packages almost completely waterproof.  In addition, the plastic material is very durable, making the envelope tear-resistant and able to withstand a lot of abuse on its way through ...

The Complex Cu3 Post-Laser lotion is a blessing!  The great thing about laser hair removal is that you never have to shave, wax, pluck or anything ever again.  However, there is the drawback of your skin being incredibly sensitive after the procedure.   CopperThe great thing about the Complex Cu3 Post-Laser lotion is that it provides copper back into your skin.  This ma...

One of my friends who has foot problems has always raved about Børn shoes. So, having flat feet myself, I had to try them. After wearing them to work for two weeks straight, the only problem I had was some minor pain on the top of my foot that I get whenever I wear clogs after not having worn them for a while.My first impression when I tried these on in the store was of the cushy fo...

I received a free offer for 250 free business cards (among other items) from Vista Print, all I had to pay was the shipping and handling charges. I was in need of some for my company so I thought I would give them a try. I was very pleased with the designs I was able to choose from and found one that was absolutely perfect for my business. They even printed a yearly calendar on the back fr...

Maybe in your neighborhood there are nice lights on the street, but in the remote mountains where I live there aren't even sidewalks.  You are lucky to find a street sign.  I noticed this small street light at Home Depot and saw that they were having a Christmas sale on them for only $150.00.  I thought that was way better than those nasty bright industrial lights (like the o...

Elvis Presley is a name known all around the world. His fans still flock to Graceland, his home in Memphis, Tennessee and there is no shortage of Elvis merchandise that can be purchased. That seems amazing, since he died in 1977. His legacy lives on.I was fortunate to see Elvis in concert 3 times during the mid 1970s. The first two times were out of state and I traveled with a gr...

I subscribed to Newsweek for a couple of years, but then when it was time to renew again, I let my subscription lapse.There's nothing wrong with the magazine, but I just had too much to read and it didn't seem essential.I already read a lot of news online and in the newspaper, so Newsweek usually wasn't telling me stuff I didn't know anything about.  What the magazine did w...

I am very picky about my hair products. I received Origins Hair Dresser as a gift from a friend who loved it and wanted me to try it. Previously, I had been using a different product with lackluster results. Because the Hair Dresser is an off white color in the bottle, and didn't seem sparkly, I was hesitant to use it - would it make my hair look dull? I was pleasantly surprised at the subt...

M. Ward is one of those performers that makes me feel kind of giddy and happy when I hear a song by them. Not because they are at all silly, but because it is just such great music that no matter your mood, you are about to be cheered up. Isn't that what great music should do? Genre in this case, is difficult to place, and really quite irrelevent. Indie-music lovers and the mainstream may f...

 I purchased a box (either 6 or 8 bars to a box, I don't remember--I left the box at my workout buddy's apartment) of these as a post-workout protein supplement for me and my workout partner. I'm far from disappointed. I don't remember the exact nutrition specs, but it has 12 grams of protein per bar and just shy of 200 calories per bar, as well as a good lon...

The company I work for as an Administrative Assistant uses the Stamps.com program. I do almost all the mailing, so I use this program on a daily basis. It is great. It is so easy to use. It faster than taking all the mail down to post office and having them weigh it and ship it. We do a lot of mailing daily, so it comes in real handy. The company bills most of the customers that do business wit...

If you have a cat, you know how it is. Cats sharpen their claws EVERYWHERE if not given enough of their own surfaces to use. My poor couch often bears the brunt if we've not supplied enough scratching posts/toys for kitty.Enter the SuperScratchers. Along with a tree or two (or not!), we have these throughout the house. They WORK. The cat LOVES them, and even plays with them (pouncing). They...

Lexapro is a very popular drug nowadays that is used for the treatment of depression and anxiety. I started taking Lexapro after the birth of my second child and a bout of post-partum depression. I was able to get a prescription after I described my symptoms to my doctor, I was not depressed but more anxious and upset all the time. Lexapro worked great for me at first. I had almost no side effe...
