Stick Me Designs

I have a friend who is going to celebrate her 31st birthday in a little over a week. I was not sure what to buy for her but then I was thinking into getting her some stylish diabetic accessories since she is diabetic. So I browsed online and I found this website that sells them. I just ordered a cute deluxe clutch and wristlet set for less than $100 for my diabetic friend so she can replace her old ones :) I just hope that those items will arrive in the mail before my friend’s birthday.

If you’re diabetic and looking for functional and stylish diabetic accessories, I recommend you to check this website out. They have beautiful designs that I’m pretty sure you will like to have. You can also visit and like their Facebook page at www.facebook.com/stickmedesigns.

Please help spread the word especially to the diabetes community.

My wife the cook

This guest post from Lewis Beck

My wife is not the best cook in the world. Now she is not the worst cook but definitely has room for improvement. I was so exited to get a cooking channel when we went to http://www.cannonsatellite.com/ and signed up for Direct TV. She loves watching the cooking shows on there and taking notes on how to become a better cook. Some of the things that they make on these shows are to die for. She has recently become addicted to this reality show where they pick ten people who are aspiring chefs. These people have to compete in various challenges in which they are given a certain amount of time to prepare a specific meal. The judges then sample their dish critique and provide feedback on how it tasted. Some of the stuff that they make I have never even heard of. The portion sizes of these dishes are so tiny that I believe one would starve to death if this was all they had to eat. I guess that is how it is done when you are creating fine cuisines though.

Healthcare Insurance

Every month when I receive husbee's paycheck, I always check what the changes are and I noticed that the health care costs continue to rise. One day, I told husbee maybe we should just cancel our healthcare insurance so we can get more money every month hahaha but he disagreed to my opinion because according to him we'll never know when we need it. He said medical insurance is really important because if we do not have coverage, the high cost of medical bills will be solely our responsibility. He made such a good point so since then I haven't bothered him about our insurance, I just input the amount in the QuickBooks every time I get his paycheck :)

Because of the economic crisis, unfortunately a lot of people don't have healthcare insurance nowadays. It's either they loss their job or they just stop paying for their insurance because people are finding it difficult to keep sufficient coverage at a cost they can afford and possibly they just don’t know where to find the best health insurance quotes. Well I know it's still expensive yet having medical insurance is essential when it comes to keeping ourselves protected from paying ridiculous expensive amount of money from our own pocket associated with medical disasters

Weekend Getaway

Hello blogging world!

Today is my chillaxing day after husbee and I weekend getaway in Lake Tahoe. Well, it was a last minute weekend getaway :) We stayed in Harvey’s Hotel which is right across Harrah’s Hotel. We originally wanted to stay in Harrah’s Hotel but there were no available rooms for Sunday night that’s why we end up staying in Harvey’s. Anyway, husbee and I had a blast. We ate and drank too much hahaha...Now, I’m looking forward for the next getaway lol.

Let's Support Walgreens

This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

 As you may or may not know Walgreens and Express Script were in a lengthy contract negotiation at the end of last year. Walgreens negotiated with Express Scripts for a new contract to continue as part of its pharmacy provider network. However, those negotiations were unsuccessful and the contract expired on December 31st.  As a result, the contract between the two parties was ended on Jan 1st, 2012.  Many customers are outraged at this lack of customer service on the part of Express Scripts especially to those patients whose prescription insurance plans are managed by Express Scripts because they’re the ones who are impacted in this situation.

No worries though.  Walgreens is making a special discount on annual membership for their Walgreens Prescription Savings Club to former members of the Express Scripts program.  For just $5 per year individual and $10 per year family (which covers everyone in your immediate family, including spouse, dependents 22 and younger), you will continue to be able to enjoy discounted prices on over 8,000 brand name and all generic medications along with discounts on flu shots, pet medications, diabetic supplies and nebulizers. There are also bonuses when you purchase Walgreens brand products and photo finishing services. It's an amazing show of customer gratitude on the part of Walgreens so that we can continue to enjoy the same one on one service with our pharmacist that we have enjoyed over the years.

As a show of support for Walgreens you can follow Walgreens on Twitter and like Walgreens on Facebook. I just did! Please do the same. Show your support for Walgreens in their fight against insurance company greediness!!!
