Ebay Watch Out!

I bought two motorcycles back in the winter before it was warm enough to ride.  Winter is the best time to buy a motorcycle.  The reason is because people haven’t gotten their tax money back yet and they want some money to catch up after Christmas.   Another reason is because people usually aren’t searching for a motorcycle in the […]

Amazon Sale Codes

Amazon is one of my favorite places to go shopping at. Why? haha, I don’t have to leave the house and most of the time I have tons of gift certificates from things I’ve done online. In the past few months I’ve racked up about $100+ in Amazon GCs and I’ve just discovered how to […]

Ice Cream Sundae Day

I am so excited to introduce you to my girlfriend, Brianne, over at her holiday blog. She’s an ice cream-a-holic.
Today is Ice Cream Sundae Day - and since it’s sweltering outside, what better way to cool off than to enjoy a sweet - and wonderfully cool - treat! Okay, I have to admit, I’m a […]

Free outside playtime

OK, so I have mentioned this before but one of my favorite playtime activities for summer is water painting the house or driveway.  All you will need is a bucket or bowl, water, paint brushes, and a paint medium.  The side of your house if it is brick is perfect.  Now all you have to […]
