I am tired these days. Perhaps it is because Mother Nature cannot seem to make up her mind whether it is still Summer or let's skip Autumn altogether and head straight into Winter.
I love the desert but sometimes the weather here can drive you bonkers. One day it can be the proverbial 110 in the shade, the next day you're wondering where your sweater is hiding it's so cold.
Or, perhaps, and I hate to think it, I am simply getting old. I turn sixty in a few months so I know that I am getting up there. But like most folks, I just don't want to admit it. I cannot even use the adage that you're only as old as you feel because most days I feel like I am ninety LOL
So, here I sit at almost two thirty in the morning, tired. I should be sound asleep like the rest of the world. Instead I am sitting at the computer typing away doing blog posts. Yep, I am odd that way.
One more post to do after this one and I shall be done for the night. Then I can take my pain medication to ease my bad back pains and fall asleep :)

If The Shoe Fits
If the shoe fits, it must be Merrel. The makers of merrell shoes pride themselves on a great fitting pair of shoes and they have for over 26 years.
Merrel has changed with the times. While they still cater to the outdoors type they also offer other styles like dress shoes and even sandals/thongs. And, if you are one of those that have special needs they also offer some Insoles & Orthotics. Cool, huh?
Whether your interests lie in hiking trails or simply walking the sidewalks of your town as you head off for lunch at the corner cafe, Merrel has a shoe that will fit your needs. And the prices are comparable or better than the average shoe store. Shipping is free when your order is over $59.98. Free is always good in my book.
Speaking of free, they also offer free return shipping if you need to return the shoes to them. Although I doubt that you will, it's nice to know that the option is there for you.
Should you have any questions not answered to your satisfaction on the website you can reach customer service representatives by phone, toll-free, at 1-800-720-0572 ext. 1.
So, look at those old, tired, worn out shoes of yours. It's time to seriously get into a new, comfortable pair of Merrel shoes!

Wahhhhhhh
They may be adults, but sometimes the players on the game site I moderate chat for sound like little children crying.
The site went down today while it is at its busiest. Hey, sites go down, it's part of internet life. Yes, we were extremely busy running a lot of games. Yes, they were all games that pay out more than most of our games. But, and this is the important part, the site is free! Nobody lost any money, they just lost the game they were playing.
But, once the site is back up into the lobby they come, in droves. All crying and moaning and groaning that they lost. Well, I feel for them. I was almost to the getting some cash part of my game when the site died. But the big difference is I am telling them it's not life threatening or anything, there is always the next game, the site is free, and all they are doing is crying into their beer.
What a bunch of babies. It is the internet people. You want real life turn off the computer and play games like people did before the internet.

Door Chimes
I don't know why but it seems like doorbells have never been all that pleasant. Maybe it's just the cheap sound that they make because the company that built the house didn't want to go the extra mile and get something more expensive. Or perhaps it's because they never seem to last very long before the sound goes out of tune.
Wouldn't it be nice to have someone come to your door and you hear something pleasant, like door chimes? Of course it would. But, you are maybe thinking that you don't want to mess around with the old doorbell and all the wiring that is involved, right? Well, think again, my friend, because you don't have to do any of that wiring stuff if you don't want to.
Dimango dot com carries a large variety of both plugin and battery operated wireless door chime and wireless door chimes. These are do-it-yourself door chime installations that require no additional wiring. Simply plug in the batteries and, voila, you are ready to hear pleasant chimes when someone comes calling.
Of course, if you are a handyman type, they also offer a selection of wired door chimes as well. Personally, I am not good at that sort of thing so I would definitely be going the wireless route.
Whichever suits your fancy though you can get rid of the raspy sounding doorbell that you now own and get something more agreeable to hear when visitors call on you.

I Did It Again
Okay, I admit it, I am an idiot at times. Those who know me would probably say all the time but I hope that is not the truth.
Looks like this blog will be bombarded with posts again today as I did not look at my assignments as carefully as I should have and they are all due by tomorrow! Yikes!
So, again, I apologize my friends for filling this blog up with so much in one day. I do, however, hope that you will take the time to read all of the posts as they can be educational and we are never to old to learn something new.

Plug And No Play
I bought a spare modem because mine is old and likes to cut off at the most inopportune times. Like most DSL modems this one is plug and play. For me, however, it became plug and NO play.
The truly odd part is that while the modem would not give me internet access on my desktop it provided wireless connection to my wife's iPod and my daughter's laptop. What the heck?? I plugged my old modem back in and now it wouldn't give me access either.
Since I had my moderator shift to do I plugged in a wi-fi connector modem and that worked just fine for the night.
Yesterday I found instructions and went and changed some things in the computer's registry. Now my old modem gives me access to the internet and my email. Of course, it still turns itself off every now and then. Crazy thing.
I tried to get a new on from Verizon, what a joke. The tech guy tells me that if the power comes on then the modem is fine. LMAO

The Better To See You With
I once went to a Neil Diamond concert in Seattle thinking I had okay seats and would be just fine. Turns out my okay seats were somewhere in what would best be described as the nosebleed section. I could see him and the band alright, but they looked like miniatures. Someone in front of my wife and I offered to let me use their binoculars for a few moments. Wow! What a difference!
Now, whenever I go to a concert or a sporting event like a baseball game I make sure to take my binoculars along. You just never know what your seats are like until you are at the stadium and then it's too late to run home and get them. Even if you have terrific seats binoculars can be fun. You can get a real close look at baserunners or the defense. I like to check out the pitcher to see how bad he is sweating if things start to get out of hand.
Whether you are into going to concerts or sporting events or even bird watching, binoculars come in very handy. Sometimes I just like to sit in the yard and check out the birds, especially in the early Spring when they start to build their nests. Birds are incredibly imaginative when it comes to nest building. Amazing the things they can find to use to make that nest strong.
No matter what you like to do I am certain you could benefit from a nice pair of binoculars. Their selection of binoculars come in all sorts of magnifications and objective sizes. Features of the binocular selection also include: roof prism, porro prism, center focus, individual eyepiece focus, focus free binoculars, and digital camera binoculars. Sizes of our binoculars range from mini binoculars to compact binoculars to midsize binoculars to full size binoculars and go as high as our giant binoculars. That is a lot of things to choose from! They even have waterproof binoculars in case you are one of those lucky enough to go boating.
