Well all the stores are full of back to school supplies and the rush is on to get the latest and greatest in backpacks and lunch boxes with their favorite tween celebrity on them.  Hanna Montana i.e. Miley Cirus seems to be the hottest thing in quite some time.  Hard to believe she is the product of “Achie Breakie Heart”, ya know but even old Billy Ray has proved to be quite a Dad and his wife I’m sure deserves a lot of the credit too.  Wasn’t too sure about that one photo shoot of Miley but she’s young and we all make mistakes.  She has a lot to learn and I have a feeling she’s a pretty smart cookie and if not, she’s got plenty of back up to see that doesn’t happen again.

I use my truck for everything and I do mean everything.  The bed of my truck is really scratched up and it looks awful when the rest of the truck doesn’t have a scratch on it.  I thought about getting a truck bed cover for it to hide all the scratches and also keep stuff from blowing out when I’m hauling something that doesn’t come over the top edge of the bed of the truck.  AgriCover makes greaat covers because you can just roll them back if you need to put something taller than your truck bed in them.  They aren’t that expensive either so I guess I’ll be ordering one.

I told you about Sweetie thinking she needed to lose a few pounds.  Well she did a little research and found out that a low carb diet will help her to lose more weight faster and also improve her cholesterol levels if that’s a concern, which it isn’t for her right now.  She found an article on http://health.msn.com/ about diets and how they help or not.  After reading the article, she decided that restricting her carbs was the way to go for her.  Sounds like a good idea to me too because there is a better chance for success and improved health too.

Did you know that helicopters crash 90 times more frequently than do airplanes?  I didn’t know that.  I never really had any desire to ride in one but now I don’t for sure.  There’s a helicopter accident lawyerthat will take care of you and or your family if something like that should happen, heaven forbid.  Some of the reasons for the crashes are bad weather, pilot error, engine failure and more.  They are great for getting hurt people out of remote places or getting someone quickly to the hospital but if your loved one has been hurt or killed in a helicopter crash, be sure you contact someone that specializes in these types of tragedies.

Sweetie and I have a great relationship.  We are both always looking for ways to grow not only individually but also together.  Both of us think that is important.  Just because you love someone doesn’t mean you are joined at the hip.  It means you are joined at the heart, or it should anyway.

I’m not above reading articles about improving your relationship or what makes a good relationship.  I found such an article at http://lifestyle.msn.com/relationships.  I think the article makes four excellent points that for some reason, there are some people that just don’t get.  The first one is to be your ideal spouse or partner which ever the case may be.  The second one is to think before you speak.  I think that is extremely important because you can’t do a rewind and take out those things you said that you shouldn’t have.

Check out the article for the other two and you just may learn something to help your relationship.  I always learn something from articles like this even if it’s that I leaned Sweetie was right or I was wrong.  That’s another hard lesson for some to learn, me included.
