Misty Looked Cute Today
Posted on July 26, 2011 by Ching under Life.
Misty looked cute this morning at the Get Motivated seminar. She wasn’t motivated enough to stay, though. LOL. I’ll post more seminar details later. You know how I like to share my “learnings” and stuff. Stay tuned!

My New TSA-Approved Backpack
Posted on July 24, 2011 by Brian under Travel, Wishlist.
So we went to Sam’s the other day to get a few small items. As we were walking through one of the aisles, I came across one of the new TSA-approved SwissGear computer bags. These things are really great for travelers like myself who hate going through airport security.
Before, I had to take my laptop out of the bag, place it in a separate container, deal with all of my other stuff as well, and pick everything up and put it all together at the end which can be quite cumbersome. Now, I can just unzip it, lay it flat, run it through and pick it up at the end. I love it!
If you order it online, it only comes in black. However, Sam’s Club carries it in black, blue and gray. I got a gray one because the blue one was ugly and black is too common.

Tis the Season for Summer Birthday Parties
Posted on July 23, 2011 by Ching under Babies, Wishlist.
A bunch of our friends decided they would have babies at the same time so their kids are now all turning two. We were invited to a birthday party every single Saturday over the next three weeks. Yikes! I guess it could have been worse. The birthday parties could have all been scheduled over one weekend. LOL.
I always ask the parents for a wishlist to simplify the gift-buying process on my end. As you all know, I’m a busy person. Between work and working out, there really isn’t much time left in my day. Gina Ann, who is always on top of things, was the first person to send me a wishlist. I found the best gift for Carolyn from her list (something educational that also looks like fun for the kiddo) so, to further simplify things, I just asked Apple and April if Zane and Gavin have this same toy already. As luck would have it, neither did. I ended up buying three of them — online, so I didn’t even have to leave the house. Bam! Gift shopping done. Just like that.
You might find my methods a little tacky but, you have to admit, it’s pretty efficient. Plus, wishlists are always the way to go. This way you don’t end up with stuff that you either already have or absolutely have no use for. But that’s just me.
By the way, all three gifts are wrapped and ready to go. Am I good or what?

Siemens Facility in Hutchinson, KS
Posted on July 23, 2011 by Ching under Things to Do.
We got to tour the Siemens USA wind turbine nacelle assembly facility in Hutchinson, KS the other day. It was really cool. You know that show Modern Marvels on the History Channel? I felt like I was in one of those episodes.
