Wal-Mart Failed



Wal-Mart you have failed me. Yesterday I requested that someone at the corporate level please contact me about my complaint, and I also requested that any contact be made by e-mail, and provided my e-mail address. Last night, I once again received a call from the Franklin, KY store, from yet another manager. I did not answer the phone, nor did I call him back. I am through playing games.

Today, however, I was searching for an Ipod touch as a Christmas gift, and google returned a search showing Wal-Mart had one of the lowest prices, so I reluctantly went to the website to look. Sure enough, an 8 gig 2nd Generation Ipod Touch was listed for $179.00. Below that was a Value Bundle package for an 8 gig 2nd Generation Ipod touch and a $10 Wal-Mart gift card for $197.98. I am sorry, I thought it was supposed to be a VALUE BUNDLE, as in saves me money, not makes them $8.98?

    One thing I DON'T expect from Walmart is customer service. Ever. It's kind of like Best Buy. You go in because it has the cheapest price in town, but you know you're going to be pretty much on your own once you get in there.

Carnival Cruise Tips for Families

Our family just returned from an 8 day cruise on the Carnival Horizon. While I and my husband have cruised before (many years ago), this was our first cruise with the kids and it was different. I have several friends that are planning or wanting to go on a cruise, so I thought I would write a little bit about our experience, in hopes that it will help someone else with their planning.  If their is interest in any certain area, I will gladly make another post that goes more in depth on that subject. BEFORE YOU GO 1. Unless you live in Florida (or near another port) and don't mind taking a 3 day cruise on the fly, book well in advance. The fairs are cheaper, you have longer to pay and you will have your pick of dining times and excursions. You can also just pay the deposit now and have until 90-75 days before your cruise to finish paying it off. 2. Social Media is your friend. Go ahead and find out who your cruise director will be and follow him on social media. He/She wi

6 Ways to Love on.....Everyone. And a rebuttal.

I don't normally post religious things.  I find my own personal take on religion to be.....quirky at time.  However, I recently saw an article floating around the web that was written by what I assume is a 20 something single lady.  It was how she felt single women need to be loved on by married persons in a church congregation.  You can read it here . I found parts of the article to be sound theory and spot on, while other parts were, shall we say misguided.  By the end of the article, I was also thinking, why are there so many separate "groups" in a church and how we all need to be loved on, not just one group.  So here is my humble rebuttal (based on my life and experiences) and also a simple blue print on how you can love on anyone in your church congregation....or anyone in the world. In response to “Six ways to Love Single Women:"               1.   Words are hurtful.  People should choose their words carefully, I agree.  God has many reasons for not

If I ignore it....

....will it go away? Today is just one of those days when everything hits me all at once: The stress of our situation and uncertainty of what is to come, the worries of money and how we will survive, and the feeling disconnected from the world. Day in and day out, I try to look at the bright side and hope and pray for the best. I do research to affirm where we stand and the likliness of a good outcome. I have thrown everything I have into finding ways to make and save money, telling myself it will make a difference. I never stop racking my brain. However, I never seem to shake the feeling of being disconnected from the world. My only social outlet is work, and being that, is limited. I seem to have very little in common with the people who are easily accessible to me outside of my family, and very little time for those with which I can relate. I crave something creative...to paint, photograph, write, but by the end of the night, when I alot my self some time, I am too mentally tired
