We will be featuring a Rubbermaid hidden recycler recycling bin giveaway soon. The feature about this bin is here. But if your interested in get one for free keep your eyes open for a giveaway. Im just waiting on confirmation from the company then ill post the giveaway.

One Planet Glasses came to me recently and said we like your style and your blog so much that we would love to offer you a review pair of eyeglasses. So they offered me a voucher for $100 and said this should more than cover the amount for a pair of good glasses. I was excited. I had never heard of them and I was anxious to check out their selection.
The offer cheap eyeglasses, frames and lenses that are sturdy and well made with the proper prescription and reliable service. You just can’t beat that. I perused their selection of glasses that start at $27 and go up to $77 and eventually found a pair that I like.

The frames were perfect for me. My favorite color is black, I have black hair, and I love wearing black frames.

In an effort to maximize quality and keep their prices low they only picked about 300 frames to sell out of the 10,000 they could have. The lenses are made in the same factory that lenses for other well now designers make their lenses with the same quality standards only at a fraction of the cost. A portion of each sale is donated to Unite for Sight to help get needy people prescription eyeglasses. And for your enjoyment they send you a private little song to tell you how amazing and awesome of a customer you really are…That’s our little secret though.

One Planet Glasses would lie to offer everyone who reads this blog and who reads this post a 15% of discount with code PUNKROCK15.

They offer great glasses at a great price. Not lie some other stores i have ordered from, not naming names, that the frames are flimsy and the glasses make me sick to my stomach every time i put them on… I love these glasses. You can feel their weight and sturdiness on your face and you now they aren’t going to break easily.

So tonight i watched a bunch of crazy shows. One of them was wife swap. These crazy people ate raw meat and did not clean their house disgusting. So i got tired of that and moved on to Dont be Tardy for the wedding…. I love this show. Kim is one of my favorite Atlanta housewives. She just dropped like $40,000 on one dress and one jumpsuit just because it was designed by her favorite designer. Don’t you wish you had that kinda cash flow. Well the psychic tells her that his parents don’t want him to marry her so she is trying to be so nice to them. Which i think could possibly be working but we don’t know yet.

Then the new Kathy Griffith show comes on and she is just hilarious…. Anyways if you can’t tell it was a night filled with womens tv shows because the hubby went out for the night. He works so hard I’m glad he get’s some down time but sometimes he needs to be here like just incase something goes wrong. Thank god nothing has gone wrong. But anyways its been a nice quiet night here since he has been gone and munchkin was passed out on the couch and i sent the other two to bed at bed time. So it’s been me since 8:30…

So i bought this Iphone 4 online through google checkout and the company i buy it from says it will ship out today and ill get a shipping notice by friday so i been waiting on that, then all the sudden at like 2 am i get a message from google wallet that the money was refunded. I don’t know why? so i contact both the company and google checkout and get no response form either but today my money is put back on my card… Kinda hoping they did ship the phone and i get it for free… But no that would be wrong…. Right? so know im trying to connect with someone from the local paper that is selling a iphone 3 g so i can buy it but they can’t meet till saturday… UGH. It’s ridiculous what i go through these days…

I have bought two seperate sim cards from my phone company, covers for the iphone and chargers and now i don’t even have a iphone. I better find an iphone soon… Hoping someone contacts me tomorrow for a cheaper one….

The Rubbermaid recycling bin that attaches to any door is an amazing invention. I had one of my friends review this item for me and here is what she had to say.

Rubbermaid hidden recycling bin

After a month of using the Rubbermaid hidden recycling bin, I can testify it’s a great product. It simply hangs on the inside of the cabinet, with easy release to take it off and empty it and then to put it back on, it even has a handy handle for carrying it off of the mounted hanging from the cabinet. It’s plastic lining makes clean up very easy, should there be a spill. It’s very convenient. Only con was that it is a little to big for my cabinets so I have to open both cabinet doors when I’m closing the cabinet door with the hidden recycler on it. But my cabinet does seem to be a tad smaller than others. Over all, it’s a very convenient addition to the kitchen until recycling day!

A bit of info on the Rubbermaid Hidden Recycling Bin from Rubbermaid themselves:

Create an indoor way station under your sink with the Hidden Recycler. It will keep recyclables off the counter and out of sight. If you have no room under your sink – no worries! You can store it in the pantry or any closet…

Rubbermaid has made recycling easier with the many products they offer for recycling. Not only do they have the hidden recycler but they have the 2 in 1 recycler and the stackable recyclers…

Recycling takes a bit of effort on your part, you have to be diligent with your recycling and stick to it. Recycling helps the world be a better place. It keeps the landfills cleaner, and helps to prevent our trash and recycle-able products from floating in our oceans. Every one now a day should be doing their part in one way or another to keep this planet clean and safe for our future generations.

For some reason although I have a child with a touch of autism i always forget about autism awareness month and now that it’s almost over I wanted to post a little something about it.

Autism is not the easiest thing to deal with. You have sensory issues,you have children that are anti social, some can’t talk or learn some, the rare few that can, wont talk because they simply wont speak to anyone. You have children like mine. The one that stands and stares at you until you get so aggravated you just want to scream. He never answers anything you ask and when he does he lies about it but to him it’s not lying its just his truth. Which is not anywhere close to the truth. He steals from us, we have to hide everything, and can’t trust him with anything. Unfortunately my son is of the worst kind of Autistic child. HEs angry, hes violent, he is aggressive, and he has only an 8% comprehension level so he doesn’t understand why he acts in such ways he just knows he feels these emotions and doesn’t know how to control them. He has encopresis which only 5% of children over the age of 5 have and he has a behavior disorder and an anxiety disorder. Which all steams from his Aspergers Disorder.

They say that he will get worse as he gets older and that we have to teach him at this age how to deal with things. But unfortunately he is getting worse and not learning how to control anything. His comprehension level is so low that he isnt passing his classes at school and they have him in special education classes but the only time he cooperates with his teachers is when in small group. When he is in his normal class he wont do anything but stand around and stare at the walls. He was sent home last week for standing the chair up on its seat and wouldnt pick it up so they said they couldnt deal with him that day and sent him home instead off helping to do better.

So My hubby has spoken with an autism awareness center and tomorrow we are going to go visit it and see what they can do to help all of us to understand a little bit better. I pray that it works. Its expensive but maybe it will help him with his problems. I will do anything for my kids so lets see what they offer.

So tonight me and the hubby took a night to ourselves and got Nana to babysit for us. So of course we go to the local watering hole and hang out but usually there is a lot more people around and tonight it was dead so me and the hubby actually got some alone time. We spent the evening playing pool together and I actually won 4 times. Once was by default cause he sunk the 8 ball to early but the other times i stomped him….lol
It was nice to get out of the house and do something adult with my hubby. It was like we were dating all over again, except without the inclusion of children…

Blogmania 2012 has started again and this time I’m doing it a little bit different…

I run a Knitting site with my sister called Punk Rock Twins Knitting and this year i will be sponsoring myself.

Now the prize package is going to be a bit different also…
You see I’m going to have two winners with the prize package totaling $100..

Each prize is valued at $50 a piece. These will be handmade custom designed Knit Cowls.

Now if you don’t know what a cowl is then let me show you a few examples:

Now these are not the cowls i will be knitting but they will be similar to these.
So what I’m going to do is I’m going to give two people a chance to win a fall/winter cowl. Know i know its not winter or fall but it will be here soon enough that you will definitely need one. This is a great opportunity to get something handmade and custom designed. You will get to pick out your yarn from the suppliers and as long as it stays within that $50 budget then we are all good. You can pick out if you want and infinity cowl or a button one and you can pick your colors and texture of yarn.

Sound good? Sounds awesome to me…

So here is the rafflecopter form:

This is a photo my son took of me and my yorkie mix….he is so talented at age 3

Now isnt that some talented work for a 3 yr old….

This is my wordless Wednesday

Well this past weekend my hubby was awesome and took us to Florida. We went to Panama City Beach. Unfortunately it rained from the time we got there on Saturday till late Saturday evening. But Sunday turned out to be a lovely day. I took a ton of pictures that i have posted on facebook on my personal page but ill post a few here for you to see. While on the beach on Sunday we came across two girls pulling on a fishing line that was attached to a pelican and the pelican was running away from them so it kept pulling the line. Well we were soon to understand that the pelican had fishing lures and line wrapped all over it and stuck in its wings so my brave hubby covers the pelicans head witha towel so he would spook him and helps four other men untangle the pelican and get the weights and lures off of his skin. The lures were inbedded in pelicans under wings. It was very traumatic for the pelican and im so glad we were able to help this bird out. Here are a few pictures of our trip. IT was truly amazing….

Teetheme is a awesome company that has packages geared from birth to age 3 and they so kindly sent me the age 3 package recently. It came with a thermos style cup that is spill proof called a foogo, a nini toy strap that attaches to a toy or the cup so that the child wll not lose it out in public, a Peachy Aquaduck faucut spout extender to help little ones reach the spout for washing their hands, and a Greenleaf floral sachet for putting in the diaper pail or as i used it for the underwear drawer.

Little bit about Teetheme…
every month, receive a box of 4 to 5 must have products tailored to your little Teether (newborn-3 years old)
sample, review & dish with like-minded parents

They are a sample, review company that works with mothers all over the world to get reviews and help mothers to find out about all the new products out their.

Teetheme sent me these items and i have to say so far i love these items…
The cup works great it doesnt leak and my son adores it. With this cup milk will stay colder longer and hot drinks with stay warmer longer, it was invented by the time honored Thermos brand and is BPA-free. The toy strap helps him keep up with his cup when out in public, which is awesome. Id have to be lying to say that we havent lost one before. The nini has multi uses and is kid proof, it adds value to any cup or toy by keeping it in arms reach. The spout reacher helps little ones reach the water when washing their hands. It saves on lifting your child to the faucet and helps them to reach farther to the water, and yes it was featured on the Rachel Ray show. The sachet has a wonderful scent and can be used for just about anything, im using mine for the underwear drawer and some people will use it on the diaper pail.

These items arrived in a cute little box with the teetheme logo on it so i knew who was sending it and my 3 yr old knew it was for him. Its like receiving a present every month.
