Prenatal Vitamins

I just ordered a load of prenatal vitamins online – no no, they are not for me don’t panic, I didn’t forget to announce something ;) They are for my sister-in-law who is expecting her first child, it’s a miracle she got pregnant at all because the doctors told her she couldn’t and she’s doing really well, it’s still a high risk pregnancy but we are all sure it’s going to turn out just fine :)

 

I see the sea

I think I am going to pick up some Nikon binoculars for my dad for his birthday, they are pricey but everyone knows you have to pay for quality and these are supposed to be really good. He and my mum are moving away to retire by the sea soon and I know he’d appreciate having them so he could sit watching the harbour and sea while drinking a nice cup of coffee :)

 

A little lie

I need to sort out a life insurance lead for my mum, she has been asking me to do it for her for ages and I keep saying ‘sure’ but then forgetting. She’s coming round in a while and asked me if I had done it and I told a little lie and said YES so now I really have no choice but to get on with it hehe

 

I know what I am getting him for once

My fiance got a new HTC Droid a few weeks ago, and although I usually moan at him spending money on his gadgets on this occasion I am glad he did because it means I know what to get him for his birthday.

He wants some Motorola Accessories and there are plenty to choose from.

He’s so hard to buy for I can’t even tell you, he never wants anything and he never likes anything I get for him. I have long since given up trying to buy him clothes for example because they always go back.

He wants many of the available Motorola Droid 2 Accessories for sure and is currently sat looking through some Motorola Droid 2 Cases to pick out one he likes.

Nice and easy :)

 

We were never that well behaved!

We went out for some pub grub with some friends last week and they brought their kids along. I was very glad to see some special kids customised placemats on the table when we got there because I know how good they are at keeping kids entertained. When I was young and got taken out for a meal with grown ups there certainly weren’t any customised placemats to keep us occupied so we tended to get bored really quickly and start messing around and getting in trouble. They also had special kids menus which I thought was a nice touch :)

 

Getting pumped

I was just reading some testosterone booster reviews because my nephew is really into his weight training at the moment and wants to get ‘pumped’ as he puts it. Obviously we don’t want him to start taking any thing dodgy or ordering things he knows nothing about online so we are trying to find something suitable and safe for him to use :)

 

It’s a win win situation

I just ordered some of the best face cream for my other half, he’s not that into male grooming but he does like his face creams but he has expensive taste – he has expensive taste in everything the great big annoyance. However I got a voucher code for £10 off so I bought him a really nice set at a bargain price – win/win – he gets nice stuff and I don’t have to spend a fortune :)

 

Maybe when I am older

My mum has been encouraging me to set up a health savings account for many years now, it’s something she sees as important as she’s suffered ill health in one way or another for many years now – but at 30 and ‘fit as an ox’ I have always felt like I have better things to spend my money on. Maybe I will do it one day though.

 

Let me check first!

I was just reading some prototype 37c reviews as it’s something my mum is thinking of buying – she had a sample of it a few months ago and says it seemed very good and that she’d like to get more. But I like to check before people spend their hard earned money on things like this so I have been doing a little reading and of course some price comparisons to make sure if she does go ahead and buy some she’s getting the best possible value for money.
