Keep Your Cables Organized

barbara

My husband was on the computer a while ago looking for 24 hour towing and I quickly asked him to also check out anything that can keep the cables organized.  I have a big problem with cables all over the desk and floor.  What a big mess.  Well, I am glad that he found Cordies, a on-your-desk cable management system which organizes the computer cables and also keeping them weighed down so that they do not fall off the desk when disconnected.  I like them because they are cute and colourful.  Cordies come with 3 individual loop spaces and is available at Quirky.com

Beautiful DragonFly Accent Light

During our previous vacation to the Big Apple, we stayed at a very nice hotel.  I still remember the time we had our coffee at the patio of the hotel.  The view was superb and the atmosphere was just wonderful.  The patio was beautifully decorated with flowers, stainless steel pinwheels, butterfly vases and dragonfly windchimes.  As soon as I saw these Dragonfly Accent Light, it brought me back to the time we spent in New York.   These solar-powered Dragonfly Accent Lights are indeed charming and eco-friendly.   They will automatically light up at dusk and burn brightly for 12 hours.  A nice addition to any home.  Ok, now I am still thinking about New York.  I better look up on travel new york again.

Working Out At Home

barbara

I have been watching The Biggest Loser on tv (reruns) everyday.  Seeing those contestants working out at the gym and pushing themselves to the limit are really inspiring.  I would love to get myself a weight machine to do some exercise at home.  Been looking around some home gyms and came across a few good quality ones at Weider.  I especially like this Weider C720 System.   Let’s hope this is what I would be getting for Christmas 🙂

Reduce Barking Noise From Your Dog

barbara

My neighbour has 3 dogs….3 Rottweilers.  These dogs not only has fleas which crawled over to my house, they bark a lot.  These 3 dogs would bark when someone walked close to the main gate, when the postman comes, when the owner returns or when they have visitors over.  The amount of noise is driving me nuts.  I just found something brilliant that will put an end to my misery. It is the Indoor Barking Dog Deterrent.  It emits a harmless ultrasonic tone, inaudible to humans which will make the animal silent.  The canine will associate barking with this unpleasant sound. Hence, it will stop its bad habits.  Cool huh? You can get one now from Hammacher Schlemmer.
