Standout in the Fish bowls

Posted by: The Blonde Diaries  /  Category: General

Who doesn’t love a free meal? I’ve always said – if it’s free, it’s for me. I haven’t ordered new business cards since I started my job in September. I think about it every time I pass one of those fish bowls in a restaurant that states drop in your card for a free lunch. I’ve always wondered how best to stand out in the sea of cards so I could win. I think I have an idea now. Why not hire someone to do some plastic card printing? Think about it. A thicker card that is more like a gift card rather than the regular paper rectangle. I bet it would get picked more often. I might have to try an experiment and test this theory.

3 Weeks till Valentine’s Day

Posted by: The Blonde Diaries  /  Category: General

If you haven’t started thinking about Valentine’s Day you should start soon.  We only have 3 weeks until it rolls around.  That doesn’t leave much time to order a gift and have it shipped, especially if it is personalized gifts for girls.

Mike and I aren’t hugely into Valentine’s Day. We tend to celebrate it with a dinner at a casual restaurant either the weekend before or after. On Valentine’s Day I usually cook a normal dinner and we do the usual – eat and gym. But I do like surprising Mike with a thoughtful gift – normally something small. I think it is just a nice way to say I love you and was thinking about you.

Spring is coming and I’m not ready!

Posted by: The Blonde Diaries  /  Category: health

With it almost being February, spring is just around the corner.  We really haven’t had much of a winter here in Houston – a few days of freezing weather but otherwise summer temperatures of 70-80.  So while I won’t have to worry about adjusting to the temperature change from winter to spring, I do have to worry about pollen in the air and other allergens.  I’m hoping using Zyrtec twice a day will be enough but if not I’m on the lookout for an allergy doctor.  I found an allergy doctor austin, texas but I haven’t found one with as high reviews here in Houston.  I think I just need to spend a little more time on the web and looking at doctor ratings and rankings.  Our medical center is large enough there should be a few good allergy doctors in town.
