the GOOD
i had a great weekend.......

it started on thursday... i went on a field trip with the school... we went to the IMAX theater and watched 'sea monsters' which was about prehistoric sea creatures... it was quite interesting... then on friday, i *cough cough* called in sick... it was my stepdaughter's 'special persons' day at school... she couldn't get her mom, or dad, or either set of grandparents, so she asked me to go... i love being last in line it was so nice of her to ask me ;) anyways, so i called in sick to work because i had no personal days left... no big deal... but we got to go out to lunch on friday and she could be signed out of school, so after lunch we just spent the day messing around... we went to the mall to walk around... then we visited my grandparents and took them to the ice cream parlor and had some YUMMY ice cream... on saturday i got to meet up with my mom and stepdad and go clothes shopping and on sunday i went to a baby shower and the just relaxed by a campfire... it was very nice :)

the BAD
i had a terrible weekend...

it started on thursday... when i got home from school i was exhausted... so i took a nap, and then went to teach at the y... then i had a meeting for my big ride that's coming up... by the time i got home i just wanted to veg... so veg i did... with MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF FOOD!!! it was ridiculous... i ate everything we had... two pieces of leftover pizza, the rest of the leftover tuna noodle casserole, ice cream, pretzels, snack bars, oreos, a pear, peanut butter, chocolate chip cookies - if we had it, i ate it... then we spent the rest of the weekend eating out... friday for lunch... friday for dinner... saturday for lunch... sunday at the baby shower... sunday night leftover baby shower food... cake... cookies... ice cream ICE CREAM ICE CREAM!! it was crazy! i did so good for about a week and a half and then BAM, i'm pretty sure i undid any good that had come... and i didn't get to bike ride at ALL because it was rainy, or i was busy, or the people that i ride with canceled or whatever the excuse i had was... and when i went clothes shopping, some 12s didn't fit and i had to try on 14s... i went from a size 8 to a 14 in four months... un-freaking-believeable.... i did it to myself tho... with all the food i eat... with all the food i ate over the weekend... it's such a vicious cycle with me...

How much can a company legally charge you to allow a plan holder out of his car insurance policy?
Simply how much does your company cost when an individual needs to terminate and how much pressure do you use to keep them?
What are some tips or something like that we can say if our consumer has many months remaining on his existing car insurance policy? Certainly, all of us are not going to hold back until his renewal comes due every time.

I've on all occasions liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to kind of virtuous spend space staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a route, it helps me with meditation, to reduce emphasis and well-grounded deem fro nothing. That's why since I was a kid, a substitute alternatively of dolls and cars I've in any case sedate more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, dulcet boxes etc. So I was most pleased when I base the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Spry Show Laser Top Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com answerable to the Toys section. It's like a musical caddy, a spinning head, and a light show all rolled into one. Which is spectacular diversion! The gyroscope wishes outing representing about a minute. The laser light manifest with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a very unique tiny that my friends get also been most amused with.

My dogs are also fair curious around the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They evermore cleave to the gyroscope as it spins, although at earliest they kept barking at the laser diverting dismiss boast, and also because it produces music. But after they got used it, they've stopped barking but simply keep following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also unbelievably amused alongside it. Occasionally it's good to maintain pleasing toys around the lineage so that you can desert the bit of frippery trifle with on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you open to prepare viands or get changed. The gyroscope is one such trinket with this purpose.

The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a design on it, and produces a gegenschein show with red, obscene, and common colours. Nick a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser luminosity show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that renowned but allowable adequacy to treat any redone visitor to the house. The gyroscope is red and jet-black, making it look very imperturbable, and somewhat macho with that dragon imprint.

The music dismount attack show gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also acclimatized this gyroscope to stagger my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy thing of decorating the hostelry latitude with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as correctly so that the laser insight expose produces a romantic effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the moonlight effects created a sort of romanticist atmosphere. She loved it, not later than the custom, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my default shopping site for all gifts and ideas in behalf of romanticist occasions.

Since Christmas is coming, this laser light upstage gyroscope can dialect mayhap be a talented Christmas give-away seeking the toddler or even the pet! Alternatively, the gyroscope can altogether be a polite totalling to the ordinary Christmas decorations. I can imagine placing it near the Christmas tree and peradventure spinning it when guests reach in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my subject yet again!
