Living out in the country has many advantages. It is quite. It is peaceful.  But, there are disadvantages as well. We are secluded. If there was an emergency no one would see it. I worry constantly about burglars, fires, etc. That is why it would be great to have a home security system with 24 hour monitoring. Especially on nights like tonight, when Mr. Technosavy is out on a call and won’t be home until the wee hours of the morning. I would feel so much safer. We do have an alarm that goes off anytime someone comes into the driveway, which helps with some peace of mind but I would still feel much safer with a system that covered the whole house, and would alarm a monitoring company if there was a fire or other emergency since we are so far out and it does take any type of emergency vehicle awhile to get here.

I had an opportunity. An opportunity to do something nice for a few. It has been SOOO much fun sitting back and watching this unfold. People are curious creatures and the unknown drives them insane. I love driving others insane. It gives me some company on that journey, whether it be long or far.

I love having family Christmas cards done every year. Usually my friend Shelia come out and takes pictures of us in front of the tree or in front of the fireplace or something of that sort. But this year, I am thinking of taking the easy route. No hair, no make-up no fuss. I am thinking I may use Vista Prints Custom Christmas Cards cards this year. The ones that I am thinking of using are the caricature cards. They are cute and we don’t have to worry about what we are going to wear, how we are going to do our hair, where are we going to do the pictures this year and if everyone is actually going to be looking AT the camera, AT the same time AND smiling.  No fuss, No worry…what more could you ask for? They even have caricatures for all the pets. The also do Post-it Notes with caricatures on them..I SO want some. I put in a request to Santa that my stocking would love some of those. If you have never visited Vista Print take a moment, they always have great specials going on any printing need you can think of and their turn around time is pretty quick. And you can usually get free products as long as you pay the shipping. Can’t ask for much better than that.
