Especially if you come from my family. I'm an only child, my mother is a Colonel in the Air Force and my dad quit his job so he could stay home and raise me. All my life I heard, "You need to go to college, finish college, establish a career, get married and THEN have a baby." So what if I skipped a few steps along the way?AiringMyLaundryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11051140760624657630noreply@blogger.comBlogger3500125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-89786295159107582582024-03-17T18:05:00.000-06:002024-03-17T18:05:23.513-06:00Gorgeous Dress From Scarlet Darkness <p>Warmer months are coming, and if you're looking for some gorgeous clothes, check out <a href="https://scarletdarkness.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Scarlet Darkness</a>.

Oreo Cakes? Trying New Foods!<p>I always love to try new foods when I either spot on in the stores or hear about it from another person. Sometimes they turn out to be amazing. Other times? Well, not so much. </p><p>But they are still fun to try because you never know. Most are found in grocery stores, unless noted. </p><p>For example, I was thrilled to hear that <a href="https://www.subway.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Subway</a> had footlong chocolate chip cookies. At only $5, this was a cheap treat. They warm it up so you get that gooey chocolatey cookie taste. I liked it.</p><p>But the Churro? That was $3 I think, and it was a little hard and tasted like lettuce.

He deployed a number of times and it wasn't the easiest life. He was in security forces, which meant he started off checking ID cards at the gate and then he went to being in a vehicle. He knew he always loved dogs so he decided to go to school so he could become a K9 Handler. </p><p>Yes, that meant he also had to put on the big suit to actually get bit by a dog so he'd know first hand what it was like. It looked absolutely terrifying to me, but he didn't mind. He would even volunteer to wear the suit when families and friends came out to a demonstration. You do not feel the bite, but you certainly feel the pressure of the strong teeth. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLYolwLDZvSsZ_zG557MbjSaTPKofap-MmuqNufBNrWG19TrsayCmxPSi5wtP23XCXL-etbk2gSlThkqewKSj87wHSpw1uJLOH1-7H6G-DDzQXvE_zdthA48HE-zh5XnkoSqDiDCCVx3igosnUHH8lAXH8Oxsx5C5GXrzoptil2pfKLr3-hkcuZeZ1Fg/s720/training3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="699" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLYolwLDZvSsZ_zG557MbjSaTPKofap-MmuqNufBNrWG19TrsayCmxPSi5wtP23XCXL-etbk2gSlThkqewKSj87wHSpw1uJLOH1-7H6G-DDzQXvE_zdthA48HE-zh5XnkoSqDiDCCVx3igosnUHH8lAXH8Oxsx5C5GXrzoptil2pfKLr3-hkcuZeZ1Fg/w622-h640/training3.jpg" width="622" /></a></div><br /><p>I know he had different breeds of dogs as partners.

No, none of these dogs ever lived at the house. In the military, they must remain in the kennels on the base. But you are able to visit them whenever you'd like on days off, so Tom would usually do this so the bond would grow. </p><p>He even became <a href="https://www.37trw.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/2103000/military-working-dog-trainerkennel-master-course/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kennel Master</a>, which meant he was in charge of the entire kennel.

Nine years later he strolls into the lakeside resort she inherited from her mother, who recently died. Is Fern finally going to get an explanation of what happened to Will all those years ago? This has been a sweet read--I am a fan of chick flicks, and this reminded me of one.

They have options like sweet BBQ! These sticks are delicious and if your sports team or school needs a fundraiser idea, keep Country Meats in mind. It would be a unique way to earn some money and they're a fair company.

When he was active duty he had it through the military obviously. But when he retired, he had different options. There are so many out there and it can be difficult to figure out which one works best for your family. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_DDIsnrOnkz3B_O9NjlLBwzN7ny0EGXV3JBIksyNXZ7byvDyK8SX_NmR6eiITQFG0fq19FHSx69A0fJIQ__Ic0pulbMFAWcDlLlMjtG0eQpMRP0ALiSy8Er3gJo3fsfDhkKSHrO5mKpLb-JURLOActV-URWLiO821oVrsrxaGI6p7V-txeLG92Mv9Jg/s3728/IMG_8475.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3728" data-original-width="2763" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_DDIsnrOnkz3B_O9NjlLBwzN7ny0EGXV3JBIksyNXZ7byvDyK8SX_NmR6eiITQFG0fq19FHSx69A0fJIQ__Ic0pulbMFAWcDlLlMjtG0eQpMRP0ALiSy8Er3gJo3fsfDhkKSHrO5mKpLb-JURLOActV-URWLiO821oVrsrxaGI6p7V-txeLG92Mv9Jg/w474-h640/IMG_8475.jpg" width="474" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>There are many life insurance with no medical exam choices. Sometimes those medical exams cause unnecessary stress. You can figure out what type of insurance works best for you: term vs whole life and how much coverage works best. No medical exam life insurance comes in handy <a href="https://meetfabric.com/blog/how-does-a-no-exam-life-insurance-policy-work" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">if you have poor health</a>, which many people do. </p><p>My husband decided to go with VGLI or <a href="https://www.va.gov/life-insurance/options-eligibility/vgli/" target="_blank">Veteran's Group Life Insurance</a>. The cost of that depended on his age and the amount of life insurance he wanted, which was the full amount of $500,000. Therefore, at the moment, he pays $80 a month. This one is a life insurance with no medical exam, so if you're in poor health, it's still available to the Veteran, which I love, because they've given so much for their country so it should be an easy process for them. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjClGA6H-egBQI2uhASy3QM4stF_sbg9sbPqtDyJmGI6_1ds5DrrCX00kCMzDMC9UeCxEabFWLafwpItHTrGBEHWzolkfivEYet0zP-biEsWxSR4QA0ETOEWPBrkQPdTjuu90mLBCF4Dt8ShZKsNG3oJddPKUnGENJ85OktX-PSua-CjSz22OO24ZTjsg/s2016/IMG_6312.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjClGA6H-egBQI2uhASy3QM4stF_sbg9sbPqtDyJmGI6_1ds5DrrCX00kCMzDMC9UeCxEabFWLafwpItHTrGBEHWzolkfivEYet0zP-biEsWxSR4QA0ETOEWPBrkQPdTjuu90mLBCF4Dt8ShZKsNG3oJddPKUnGENJ85OktX-PSua-CjSz22OO24ZTjsg/w640-h480/IMG_6312.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><a href="https://www.usaa.com/inet/wc/insurance_life_main" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">USAA</a> also has a life insurance. You can get it for as low as $12 a month.

While many go for the VGLI, there are other choices to have on top of that. It is important to have a plan because unfortunately, you never know what can happen in the future.

We'd rather wait for the next day.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. <b>Gridlock traffic.</b> This goes with the one above, but it's still true. We're in Texas, so traffic is already horrible, but add Valentine's Day to the mix and it's even worse. It can take 1 hours to go a few miles. Pass. </p><p><br /></p><p>3. <b>Things are overpriced.</b> Seriously. Sometimes places boost costs of things because it's Valentine's Day. Wait a day later and save some cash. </p><p><br /></p><p>4. <b>People are crazy.</b> Tempers can be up due to gifts not be received, so arguments can break out. I'd rather not be around that.

Everyone wants to run out and get them. Mostly resellers, because they know they can sell them for double, maybe even TRIPLE the price. </p><p>People will line up for hours for the cups. And I get it: they are nice (I saw that video where a car was on fire and a Stanley cup was there and the ice inside even after the fire was put out) and they come in a variety of colors. The latest release were Valentine's Day and you could get them in red or pink. I am a sucker for pink, but not enough to wait forever in line or deal with the fights that tend to always break out. </p><p><i>Insanity.</i></p><p>I do own one Stanley cup. I got it on sale because it wasn't a popular color. So I actually have tested it out because I was curious. </p><p>Here's what I discovered:</p><p><a href="https://owalalife.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Owala </a>cups are better. This it the FreeSip. But if you prefer the tumbler look, they have those in 40 ounce. There's also a Kids' FreeSip. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIMgDwL7C55_-18Uyi0LFWhuPkEywALFxgid99BAmQyiQFTMiK3HMzkYNBcRis21QXsTNUIoM5BDY1WJsvmjfa-bCTp_T01IyQROLhhPTqU8dnWwaehHwq0LdTDFEgyzgGJlbTuNr9mKvtTyX2Q9APILzltJOGyilc13gQWOwzKkSqQ1QEoLGKfL5N7Q/s1655/IMG_5776.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1260" data-original-width="1655" height="488" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIMgDwL7C55_-18Uyi0LFWhuPkEywALFxgid99BAmQyiQFTMiK3HMzkYNBcRis21QXsTNUIoM5BDY1WJsvmjfa-bCTp_T01IyQROLhhPTqU8dnWwaehHwq0LdTDFEgyzgGJlbTuNr9mKvtTyX2Q9APILzltJOGyilc13gQWOwzKkSqQ1QEoLGKfL5N7Q/w640-h488/IMG_5776.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>You can also get them in many colors.

The 40 oz is $37. </p><p>Oh, and there's no lead. I'm sure you heard the story about how <a href="https://abc7news.com/stanley-cups-lead-oversize-tumblers-tiktok/14378499/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Stanley cups have lead in them</a>.

Stanleys don't fit in there. You have to awkwardly carry it everywhere. I mean, you do get an arm workout, yay, but it's just not as convenient. My daughter has always brought this to school even though many kids bring in those Stanley cups. She's never been one to follow the crowd. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVmGPvRt00X3wFKwJoTkaFg_c0iupJxJshcU4iFkp9nYLuMYf2nwyBeJhAxD8EsiDbg_0rATJ5w_lV5ohqG6EOGsfeoB7JcNwceyy6ci9z3JFGUgANGRyDtvOOEE6q-R7rTTEQAudLDEouHOYhha-4YCf2Pfd-BZazogYeLBzaLdD5g-Su1rQYT4XpVQ/s2016/IMG_5663%20(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2016" data-original-width="1512" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVmGPvRt00X3wFKwJoTkaFg_c0iupJxJshcU4iFkp9nYLuMYf2nwyBeJhAxD8EsiDbg_0rATJ5w_lV5ohqG6EOGsfeoB7JcNwceyy6ci9z3JFGUgANGRyDtvOOEE6q-R7rTTEQAudLDEouHOYhha-4YCf2Pfd-BZazogYeLBzaLdD5g-Su1rQYT4XpVQ/w480-h640/IMG_5663%20(1).jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>Oh yeah, we have an Owala in <a href="https://owalalife.com/products/freesip?variant=42192954917023" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">purple</a> as well. Seriously, you can find whatever color you can think of. And the Owala site isn't the only place you can get it. We bought ours at Target on sale. I think it ended up being around $19. <a href="https://amzn.to/3HHM9cW" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Amazon</a> also has a bunch of them in a variety of colors. </p><p>And yes, the drinks stay cold all day. Natalie goes to school at like 8 AM and returns around 5 and there's still ice. This has lasted over a year. She has dropped it many times and it's still holding up, so they are made just as good as Stanleys. </p><p>Also, Owala has <a href="https://owalalife.com/pages/color-drop" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">color drops</a> like Stanley does and honestly, they're just as pretty, if not prettier. There's even <a href="https://owalalife.com/products/marvel" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>Marvel</b></a> themes! Natalie wants the Spider-Man one. You'll also find Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, plus others. Perfect for the Marvel fan AND they are still cheaper than Stanley cups. They are only $34. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibOCasa90BYMxV8xzixcqxIT1Y6NV6pDX53vSErG2aMJwXVkO2MQfEgBOhN3EpbyBg3Jrg8ZjO0OPQQvIImLKQrul8h10pwjfjaYVfBZgIzLypYyPfy6GIr7U-TqYmotFWiN8p072jdF5d9-wXYeupZuAyYp_bYuWDn0KrN3VzFskR7mlNtIHqfQAZvw/s2016/IMG_5808.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibOCasa90BYMxV8xzixcqxIT1Y6NV6pDX53vSErG2aMJwXVkO2MQfEgBOhN3EpbyBg3Jrg8ZjO0OPQQvIImLKQrul8h10pwjfjaYVfBZgIzLypYyPfy6GIr7U-TqYmotFWiN8p072jdF5d9-wXYeupZuAyYp_bYuWDn0KrN3VzFskR7mlNtIHqfQAZvw/w640-h480/IMG_5808.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>So if you or your kid is begging for a Stanley cup, reach for an Owala instead. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFrQZ3y8jF-1eQ0dZTfw7vmvwruR56eFr2oK-1GeSd9W6H3I8BsvQrhxNYD3cGOw_6YquEwVMSh7gt1PH5h4BUpqQ9PEcNe8IzuWKi6PVV4PNp-7kDyy0bPrcgq4WzVstLIwSoS74xQ2dABVIix1U4FXbbZ4D9IZ49tJDJrs7OITsUGWSKw3eclzknfA/s2016/IMG_5783.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFrQZ3y8jF-1eQ0dZTfw7vmvwruR56eFr2oK-1GeSd9W6H3I8BsvQrhxNYD3cGOw_6YquEwVMSh7gt1PH5h4BUpqQ9PEcNe8IzuWKi6PVV4PNp-7kDyy0bPrcgq4WzVstLIwSoS74xQ2dABVIix1U4FXbbZ4D9IZ49tJDJrs7OITsUGWSKw3eclzknfA/w640-h480/IMG_5783.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;">You can learn more about Owala at the following:</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://owalalife.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">their webpage</a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/owala/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@owala" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">TikTok</a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/owalalife" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV8kZKGmOK5NRljhibxPcTg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">YouTube</a></p><p><br /></p>AiringMyLaundryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11051140760624657630noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-11957105575450931462024-01-31T17:24:00.001-07:002024-01-31T17:24:35.046-07:00Nourish Your Dry Skin With Fount Society <p>I'm Amber and I have dry skin.

She's sixteen. She did the classes on Aceable when she was fourteen, but it took her a bit to finish them all. In Texas, you had to finish all those classes, get a certificate, go to the DMV with a bunch of paperwork and documents, take the eye test, and then, bam, learners permit. Finally. </p><p>Now she has to get her driving hours in. Natalie absolutely LOVES driving and honestly, she's pretty good at it.</p><p>Here are some tips if you're helping your teen get their license. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghk7WUqZ7gQXWblaRSwNSHp5wfFHzBHb1FkHpM95Q1u6NvOW_QXYXzv02pVUyaRmsSn6PMr_9xLHh5mShh_yQzEqyr6ICHwgq4-6lqvENhuv39FP9VL8LTxHhoCgZvg2BY88be8cOHoURjN_RQfYr4sg6GF8XwQHHD51B9zSihcsrah93i8MGcfq5Yyw/s2013/IMG_1544%20(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1477" data-original-width="2013" height="470" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghk7WUqZ7gQXWblaRSwNSHp5wfFHzBHb1FkHpM95Q1u6NvOW_QXYXzv02pVUyaRmsSn6PMr_9xLHh5mShh_yQzEqyr6ICHwgq4-6lqvENhuv39FP9VL8LTxHhoCgZvg2BY88be8cOHoURjN_RQfYr4sg6GF8XwQHHD51B9zSihcsrah93i8MGcfq5Yyw/w640-h470/IMG_1544%20(1).jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>1. Have patience</b>. Look, it's kinda scary to see your kid behind the wheel. And there might be some mistakes. But they're learning. If you yell, it won't help. Be calm. And remind them that it's okay, sometimes you drive over the curb too. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>2. Practice. Practice. Practice.</b> Even if you have had a frightening experience with your teen behind the wheel, they still need to practice. So let them. If they aren't offering to drive, remind them that they need the hours in. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>3. Go over safety rules.</b> Your teen will probably roll their eyes. "Mom, I KNOW not to be on my phone when I'm driving. I KNOW not to drink and drive." But who cares. Better to drill it in their heads. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo9BXZ0Q0biAdnVBbsg4248FoI9pIyuYUEX0qAFxAVDKP5EXdloHo8bPTaBLnVNb-kb0hmtJX2DxqMP5P4yFlTEk1xaP74HGXsQ0iXoXrrSM_xSN3QSdhLmH3dwSb_8AD7QgsBbpiVsi7TyPoDy-ogdYAas6io4u7qJs-F7QdM24G3eNWQZy96f6MlOw/s2016/IMG_3837%20(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo9BXZ0Q0biAdnVBbsg4248FoI9pIyuYUEX0qAFxAVDKP5EXdloHo8bPTaBLnVNb-kb0hmtJX2DxqMP5P4yFlTEk1xaP74HGXsQ0iXoXrrSM_xSN3QSdhLmH3dwSb_8AD7QgsBbpiVsi7TyPoDy-ogdYAas6io4u7qJs-F7QdM24G3eNWQZy96f6MlOw/w640-h480/IMG_3837%20(1).jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><b>4. Remind them to NEVER drive if someone doesn't have their seat belt on.</b> I mean, this kinda goes with the rule above, but it's so important to me that it needed it's own number. So many times I watch news stories about accidents where the person is ejected from the vehicle. Most of the time people <b>DIE</b> because they didn't buckle up. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>5. Praise often.</b> If they've had a good drive, tell them. It helps to build confidence. I told Natalie the other day that she parks better than I do. </p><p><br /></p><p>If all goes well, Natalie will have her license sometime in the summer. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB0mt0uhsM-we9Dv6TvrFS52bxcg-ColRUwDdtiU8g5WyjgTPE2smE2DJCRhYEAWXDpi9oLGgW92cFzhhtewcRHIusUUGgZ8YgGPfI3bcxRRiLYBcyjfLQpz1ZTCm2QYr2qt1dtTjLmazmHL5tysnqH8SKrkcWKihwarwVD3kr0GejUAee2EfDocLQ2w/s2016/IMG_5654%20(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB0mt0uhsM-we9Dv6TvrFS52bxcg-ColRUwDdtiU8g5WyjgTPE2smE2DJCRhYEAWXDpi9oLGgW92cFzhhtewcRHIusUUGgZ8YgGPfI3bcxRRiLYBcyjfLQpz1ZTCm2QYr2qt1dtTjLmazmHL5tysnqH8SKrkcWKihwarwVD3kr0GejUAee2EfDocLQ2w/w640-h480/IMG_5654%20(1).jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>AiringMyLaundryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11051140760624657630noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-49449117255695314602024-01-24T18:16:00.000-07:002024-01-24T18:16:14.049-07:00Flix Brewhouse Goes To Space With Rocketman<p>Ah, Elton John.</p><p>He's one of my favorite artists.

He just has so many hits, including, duh, Rocket Man, which gives me goose bumps because it's so hauntingly beautiful. </p><p>Rocketman is a biopic about his life.

And that included his own parents. His own mother said that because he was gay that he'd never be loved properly and my jaw dropped open at that. I mean, the absolute nerve. But now he's happily married to David Furnish and they have two boys. </p><p>We're also glad that he did not die, because for a while there he was drinking a ton and had a horrible drug habit. Now he's been sober since 1990. So the movie reminds you that while life can get you down, you can bounce back. </p><p>Next month Flix Brewhouse has another theme. It's Eternal Bonds. So many incredible movies. We're seeing Mamma Mia because we absolutely adore that movie and sing the songs often. We saw <a href="https://www.airingmylaundry.com/2023/02/clueless-galentines-day-event-at-flix.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Clueless at the theater</a> last year and it was fantastic.

We're doing Disneyland for 3 days and then on a 4th day, we're doing some touristy things. We're doing the WB Studio Tour in Burbank, heading to the Griffith Observatory, and then the Hollywood Walk of Fame which I hear is trashy, but Natalie needs to see Marilyn Monroe's star and signature at the Chinese theater. Oh and apparently Matthew Perry is buried in the cemetery across from the WB Studio Tour so we're going to pop over and pay our respects. </p><p><br /></p><p>......to be glad that Flix Brewhouse has themed movie months. For January, it was space, so they showed Rocketman, the Elton John biopic, so my daughter and I went to see that. We have it on DVD but it's fun to see movies we enjoy on the big screen. February's theme is Eternal Bond so they're showing movies like Legally Blonde, Clueless, Interview With The Vampire, and Mamma Mia. </p><p><br /></p><p>.....to have booked Natalie's birthday party at <a href="https://www.urbanair.com/" target="_blank">Urban Air</a>.

And don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE chocolate and flowers are pretty, but sometimes it's more exciting to go outside of the norm. After all, flowers die. And you can get the chocolate for 50% off a day later. </p><p>So why not go for something different? </p><p>I have a bunch of options and even better, they're all under $20 because life is expensive and you don't need to spend a bunch to show you care. </p><p>So let's begin! </p><p><br /></p><p>If your partner loves to read, how about getting them a book? Even better, a classic book. You can find these for under $20 in many antique stores or eBay. Obviously the first editions are going to be over $20, but you can find a fabulous variety for a great deal:</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyrfQOqPHUd1EK4Xj_oTbtNCJj9dEBFfvR5agjwbBm-DZ2YocchvwgLScDeA69olpzQBTqJuCO-GySScSGDI-VhfZLDvRGV1DBlGUuqpc43v8TC6nH8codJU136dn8ID4hovFKBKx0x6a_bLmsVCPmr4RWeHq8YswvJP_lWS2Ur8H8TuhfpXn0jArdCw/s2016/IMG_3512.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyrfQOqPHUd1EK4Xj_oTbtNCJj9dEBFfvR5agjwbBm-DZ2YocchvwgLScDeA69olpzQBTqJuCO-GySScSGDI-VhfZLDvRGV1DBlGUuqpc43v8TC6nH8codJU136dn8ID4hovFKBKx0x6a_bLmsVCPmr4RWeHq8YswvJP_lWS2Ur8H8TuhfpXn0jArdCw/w640-h480/IMG_3512.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>Games are always an exciting gift.
