OK, I was done with Simon, too, but…

I understand we are all up to our reality TV gills with the next big talent America will produce.  I watched the first couple seasons of American Idol, I fade in and out of Dancing with the Stars depending on where I am sitting when it comes on and who is dancing.  BUT my son insisted I watch the new X Factor to see Drew Ryniewicz perform. And I was blown away. She is only 14 and all talent, all heart.  And of course, one of “Simon’s” girls. Tune in on Wednesday at 7:00 Central. The show is worth it for her.

Try this link and decide for yourself. I know it is long but it says as much about the importance of family as it does about her…and of course, it speaks volumes about moms…

I love instant gratification!

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE instant gratification.  And even more than that, I LOVE paying less than retail. Zappos.com used to be my favorite online store, especially for shoes.  Even in the backwoods of West Virginia, they could find me in 24 hours, at most 36 if there was a blizzard.  But then I discovered endless.com.  I may be late to this game so for those of you who already know and enjoy endless pleasures, indulge me for the others that don’t. I ordered these boots at 7:02 pm Central Time yesterday and they were at my door by 8:30 this morning– on a Saturday! Free delivery. And no tax. Now I understand this is not giant savings on my credit card but for time and effort expended, they get an A+ from me. Their return policy is again, free. And none of this six weeks to post to your next billing cycle stuff. Three to five days at most.

Unfortunately, they don’t fit but I have been able to admire them all day and, of course, rethink the purchase.  Two things I like to do. Especially for free.
