I was a Verizon customer for many years, even before the name was changed to Verizon Wireless.At the time that I picked up my cell phone I was doing a lot of city traveling and it was important to me to have the phone for safety.

In addition to the farmers market I also used this great cart to go to a beach/park and around th...

These bulbs are called ecobulbs - energy saving compact fluorescents. What is different ab...

My dog has intervertebral disc disease.  This condition causes inflammation and lots of pain. The pain has to be pretty severe as my dog has had a freak injury in the past and not so much as whimpered, while this caused some major reaction. He was prescribed Prednisone, which has some pretty nasty side effects so it wasn’t something that we I wanted him to take long term. With some e...

I am a happy TracFone customer!I used to use Verizon, however I was paying over $40 a month for a phone that I no longer used very much at all. Verizon did not have a satisfactory plan at a lower rate so I did some looking around.

My dog experiences both food and environmental allergies. Recently his environmental allergies presented themselves as a bright red irritated and itchy rash on his back.Between what myself and the vet we tried several things, but nothing seemed to do much to lessen the rash and any gain that was made quickly took a step back - very frustrating!I decided that I would see if I could find somethin...

I was doing over the living room and wanted something for the windows so off to Home Depot we went.At first I wasn’t looking for blinds.
