Caller ID

How many times have you had the phone ring and looked at your caller ID only to find "unknown caller" show up. Chances are if you do not want me to know who you are, then I probably do not want to talk to you.

I would be a very happy person if phones didn't exsist. It never fails that when I'm in the middle of doing something, it's going to ring.

I've got an answering machine as well and it just amazes me that "unknown caller" does not know how to leave a message either. So if you can't tell me who you are or leave a message don't expect me to pick up the phone.

Never leave home without your duct tape

I think duct tape is the greatest invention ever made. It has saved me countless times with temporary, minor repairs, and in some cases some permanent fixes.

From patching hoses, repairing pools, taping down my dvd player so my three year old wouldn't pull it down, to making armor for my six year old. It's strong yet you can tear it with your bare hands. Duct tape when doubled over can pull a 2000lb car out of a ditch.

If anyone told me I could only choose one product to use, it would have to be duct tape. Okay, so I have too much time on my hands, time to get creative, let me go get my duct tape.......

Six Please

Blueflute Blog..... try saying that five times fast. This is my first blog. Not a very interesting blog, but sometimes you have to just jump right in with both feet and sink or swim. So why blog? I know a whole lot about nothing in particular. Along the way I occasionally learn a thing or two about how not to do something. It could come in handy someday you never know.

When you find yourself in one of those situations, just think back to how many times you screwed something up similar then DON'T do it. Plain and simple. It's like when you buy something you use all the time but you buy it cheap and it breaks. So you go out and buy something similar, also cheap and it too breaks. Go buy a good one, sure it costs more but how many cheap ones have you broken and replaced where you could have bought a good one to start with and probably would still have it. Chances are that good one will even have a replacement warranty on it so you save even more money.

There are a few things I've had to replace numerous times, it took me a bit to realize that I was spending more on cheap. Six can openers later I came to this realization. Not a good thing when you need to open that can of coffee. Mmmm Coffee..........
