#MM Wood

Sometimes, dominoes are wooden. Sometimes,they're made of plastic, 
but Jord watches are always wooden. 
Have you entered my contest to win your own Jord watch? If not, stop by my post 
and enter on the Rafflecopter above.  

Jord Wooden Watch Giveaway

Here's something fun to view with music, 
even if these dominoes look plastic.


When in high school, most clarinetists played plastic instruments, but mine was wooden. 
The tone was beautiful, even though 
I never played as well as this guy.
Wood is awesome!



Now go enter to win a wooden watch?

A Blogger's Jackpot!

I hit the JaCKpoT when Paul contacted me about sampling a Wood Watch by Jord. Look at this beautiful watch on my wrist! It's totally brag worthy.




My watch is so cool, I could wear it to kickboxing class and my instructor wouldn't even notice my loose fist. I mean, who could notice anything other than the watch in this photo?


Tighten that fist!
I love the fine details and two tones of wood. It even matches my gorgeous dogs.





But I won't let them wear it because it's all mine!

This smooth watch has got to be one of the coolest watches I've ever owned. It's even cooler than my Woody Woodpecker watch that used to peck at the tree each second. This watch is made from the tree! Plus, the face is large enough that I can tell the time without my reading glasses.




But here is the best news of all. You can win your very own Jord watch in my giveaway! That's right. Up for grabs is a gift certificate of $139 (and free shipping) from Jord. You can't beat that, so don't forget to enter this great contest!

Stop by Jord and and tell me which watch you'd get if you won, and leave me a comment.




Click on the Rafflecopter at the top of the blog and gain points to enter my contest. Hurry, because it won't be up for long.

WW: Just Like Mom Used to Make

My sister made this, whatever it is, for my son. 
He said it was, "Just like Mom used to make." 
Mom never made this, or ate it.


It reminds me of a scene from "Galaxy Quest" when 
Dr. Lazarus receives a meal from his home planet.


I can't eat food that looks like worms swimming in a swamp.
My kids should have had my sister as their mom.

On another note, come back Thursday 
and enter my Jord watch giveaway.

#MM The Sixties and Seventies

This week's theme on Monday Music Moves Me 
is Music from the Sixties and Seventies. 
This should be a fun walk down memory lane.

1960s
Here's a fun one that was released in November, 1968. I remember sitting in the elementary school gym waiting for an assembly to start. The teachers played some music while we waited, and this one cracked us up. It's got to be one of the stupidest songs ever written. Plus, I love the great clothes! Check out this groovy tune. "I Love My Shirt," by Trev and Simon.


1970s
My mom told me this one was about getting ice cream. I was old enough not to believe her. Afternoon Delight by Starland Vocal Band came out in 1976.



Jord Wooden Watch Giveaway
And finally, stayed tuned to my blog because I am going to be giving away a beautiful Jord watch real soon. Here's one of my favorite songs about time from Chicago, "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" It was released in 1969.

Spooky Music


Typically on Halloween we'll pull out the tape deck and pipe spooky music out the window. I have to get it together for tomorrow. We have our candy ready and bagged, but no pumpkin, yet. We also have loose pieces of candy incase we run out; however, a big mouse keeps getting into our candy!

Halloween makes me think of 
beautifully spooky songs.

Solve First & Third World Problems By Renting Books

CampusBookRentals.com can solve first world and third world problems all at once. Let me explain.



My daughter is a senior at the University of Central Florida. This semester Erica solved her first world problem (getting school books) by renting from CampusBookRentals.com. It was easy peasy. All she had to do was go online, find her book, and place an order. First world problem was not a problem when her textbook landed in her mailbox.

Here are perks of renting books from CampusBookRentals.com:
  • -save 40-90% off of bookstore prices 
  • -free shipping both ways
  • -can highlight in the textbooks 
  • -flexible renting periods

If you want to know more, check out this video: 


Erica's story didn't end there because her book rental solved a third world problem by providing funds for Operation Smile. That's right! With every book rental, CampusBookRentals.com will donate funds to help fix a cleft palate of a child who otherwise would not have the means for surgery. 

Now, it's better than ever to borrow your books from CampusBookRentals.com because they have a new program called http://www.rentback.com/. This is a program where others will rent your books and you get paid. How cool is that? Check it out:



Now, it's time to save money for next semester!
