Don’t buy now!

Posted on by queentracey1

I worked retail for, well, a long time. One of my titles was mattress and bedding manager and I always hated that Black Fridays “DEALS” were not actually deals!

The so called, Lowest price of the year, nope.

Now I haven’t worked in that area for at least over 5 years and the store was just starting to feel the difference from on line shopping, so it’s not that they were desperate, nope, it’s standard to lie. Wait, What?? That is what the district manager said, then reminded me of my confidentiality agreement.

The store I worked at is now closed and they have closed a lot more of them at this point, but it makes you wonder, what other large corporations lie about prices.

Point is, don’t fall for Black Friday or cover Monday deals on mattresses, most bedding, mattress covers, any of it.

Research!!! Always!!!

Happy hunting guys!!!

Amazing non dairy dessert

Posted on by queentracey1

Finally I found something I really like! This new non dairy life style has become increasingly depressing. I never knew how much dairy was used in everything till I had to start paying attention.

If I could cook maybe it wouldn’t be so bad but, I suck at cooking and really hate it! I miss so many of my favorite foods, I have tried alternatives but it just isn’t the same.

Lazy parenting or ADHD

Posted on by queentracey1

I know the main symptoms are ,

Inattentively

Hyperactivity

Impulsively

When my step son first came to live here it was a learning curve for us all but there were so many things he should have known and didn’t, at least in my opinion, like,

Please, thank you, excuse me or your welcome,

He came across rude most of the time, he didn’t have any consideration, empathy, or any manners. At first it was all put on his, ADHD, but I already raised one son with ADHD and did not agree, his mother had taught him that it was a crutch.

Now he has been here 6 months, he has changed significantly enough that his grandmother noticed when he went to visit. He said “please” and “thank you”, he didn’t interrupt, he no longer eats like an animal making a total mess, but most importantly he wasn’t so rude all the time. At least half of his ADHD symptoms had changed, his hyperactivity had been changing already and was completely gone by now and his impulse control was better. If it wasn’t for the fact that he can’t remember anything at all , then I wouldn’t think he even had ADHD.

I guess the fact that he can play a new game on his PlayStation for hours, completely focused on the game and then do it all over again the next day doesn’t count, but shouldn’t it? He is an A student all around, completes and passes in his work on time every time.

If he didn’t say the medication helped him concentrate and complete his school work, I would not think he needed it at all. It makes you think though, how many kids out there have been diagnosed with ADD when it’s just a case of lazy parents?

2 months????

Posted on by queentracey1

I had someone tell me the beginning of August that their dog was sick, acting funny and not eating. We went through checking this and that but my final advice was to take him to the vet.

Yesterday I talked to them again and they said he died! I was surprised and of course asked how? They said they had just made an appointment for the vets! It was some kind of infection they said.

Two months that poor dog was sick. I mean did he suffer? Was he in pain? How could they neglect him that long like that? It broke my heart to hear that. Now my thought was to call someone for they still have 5 other dogs! I don’t think there is anyone though. We don’t have animal control here. I’m conflicted. What do you think???
