The temperatures were in the seventies today, and the weatherman says that tomorrow will be just as nice! This is the reason we moved here, beautiful weather like this! The wind feels great, the sun warms our skin, it just cannot get any more perfect than this! My wife is already trying on her summer clothes to see what fits and what doesn’t; what needs to be mended and what needs to be donated to charity. I’ll be grilling burgers on the grill more often…..Ahhh…. the rites of spring are upon us!
One of our nieces is pregnant and has just started “showing.” So my wife has been looking for some cute, trendy, and inexpensive maternity clothes to buy for her. She found a great selection of maternity clothes on the Internet at the kikisfashions.com website. The clothes there are a bargain compared to many other places that she has been looking at! They are holding a big sale, offer several maternity tops for under $10, and are offering a coupon code for bloggers and their readers to use to get an additional 20% off! The coupon code is “blogfriends.”
My wife says that the clothes are very cute compared to the maternity clothes she had to wear back in the 80s when she was pregnant with our kids. Makes her angry that she couldn’t find cute clothes like that back then!
I read this morning on one of the Internet websites (I think it was Yahoo) a story about a chimpanzee in a zoo that stores up rocks and then throws them when he is angry at the zoo visitors. The article was making a big deal about it because the scientists were saying that this shows that chimpanzees can plan ahead.
Then the article mentions the incident with the pet chimpanzee that attacked his owner’s friend. It goes on to say that the owner speculated that the chimp had attacked her friend because she had a new hairdo, was driving a different car, and was holding a toy stuffed animal in front of her face, trying to lure the chimp to come inside the house. That’s the first I’d heard of all that! Well no wonder he attacked her! He was feeling threatened by a stranger on his turf! How sad is that!
If someone told you that you could save up to 80% on auto parts by ordering them online, what would you do? Me too! My nephew told me that the next time I need to buy some parts for any of our vehicles, to check out the greatautoparts.com website. I just went there and found that it is easy to use, just type in the year and make of the car and the part number and it will tell you the price. Pretty easy! You should try it too the next time you need to order an auto part!
I was glad to hear that the Dulles Metro rail has finally been approved and is going to actually start construction! I heard that on the news this evening. That is going to make life a lot easier for a LOT of people, including our family because we use the Dulles Airport a lot. I’ve been wishing that there was a Metro rail station there ever since we moved into the area.
Now if we could only get the Metro rail station to extend out to Gainesville! That would be really great!
