I think we need to upgrade our water filter system. The water tastes too salty, and the water softener guy says there is nothing we can do about that. I don’t believe him, so I have to do some research on the issue.

Selling arts and crafts on Ebay
My sister was telling me that she was thinking about starting to sell some of her arts and crafts work on Ebay. Lots of her friends have been encouraging to try to do that, insisting that she could make a killing doing that. She has several friends that DO make a lot of money on Ebay, and they have told her that they will help her with the red-tape if she has any problems or questions. Their enthusiasm has got her all pumped up about making money selling her crafts.
Towards that end, she is going to need to buy a Shipping Scale to help her to determine the postal rates of items that she will be offering for sale. Scales are vital because she needs to know how much the item weighs (including the shipping box and stuffing) in order to calculate the shipping charges that she will have to quote on Ebay. She has already accumulated enough boxes to get her started as far as that end goes, and she has lots of old newspapers saved up for stuffing the boxes.
I suggested that she try to find one that is compact so that she can tuck it away into her cupboard when she doesn’t need to use it.

Planning weddings
I love to plan weddings. A wedding is a time of hope, romance, and excitement. Girls start planning their weddings almost from the moment they are born! I love looking at the different wedding favors and gifts that people can buy to give their guests or their bridesmaids and groomsmen. Personalized Money Clips are a great idea to give as gifts to the groomsmen!

It’s really a shame
I was reading on the Time.com website that the International Olympic Committee is upholding a ban agains Iraq participating in the Olympics. I didn’t realize that there was a ban in the first place, so I was surprised and interested enough to keep reading. The story was talking about how the government was interfering too much with the country’s Olympic Committee, and how their Olympic Committee was disbanded last May. And then it was talking about how four of the Committee members, including the chief had been kidnapped two years ago and are still missing! Good Grief!
It’s really too bad, but certainly understandable!
