Quality and Durability

Zigels (TM) Backpack Business Travel Student up to 17" Laptop, Black  Click to purchase 

This is going to be one of the most through reviews I probably have ever done. This backpack is perfect for any on the go student or professional that I have ever encountered. Most you find are not made well even after paying an arm and leg to get what you need. First I received it fully flat, when I opened it to my surprise there is a plethora of compartments.#ziglerslaptobackpack

My main concern was the ability to secure the laptop/tablet, no worries there. There is a compartment for the laptop, that is secured by a large Velcro strap .The pocket is cushioned and fits snugly.On the outside of the pack there are snap locks to secure the contents even further. There is another section for notebooks, paper, pens, whatever you could imagine putting in it for either a day at school, visiting nurse or Doctor on the run. The large spacious pouch on the front can hold pretty much what you feel like putting in it including your phone, wallet, or even a small travel bag for makeup or amenities to take with you on a trip, or fast freshen up at or before your destination. Two side net pockets to hold the libation of your choice, I decided to use green tea 22 oz bottles.

There is security locks all around this back to keep everything safe not just the laptop. I tested it on someone who has back problems from carrying a traditional backpack that usually pulls at the neck and shoulders. This product however does not put strain on the neck and shoulders. It manages to spread out the weight giving you a comfortable ergonomically fit pack with cushioned straps.

The tan logo matching the bottom of the industrial grade 600D polyester material (black) is very fashion forward as well as functional. I am glad I was picked for this promotion, this is my honest unbiased opinion, I received this product at discount for testing purposes. It meets all the critera for any student, professional or daily use for the busy mom on the go (or dad).

Please do not let the affordable price put you off this product, I can't say good enough things about it.I have purchased several backpacks in my time and shelled out quite a bit of money and within a couple weeks it shows wear and tear which can usually be known after purchase. This is one that will last. The zippers, one of the most important parts of this product is the zippers, I twisted and pulled and not once did it get caught or hang up on anything. The sewing is great and no extra material to get caught in. Durable and lasting. Excellent gift.






 Inside the pack

AZSport Waist trimmer

IMG_1602[1]   AZSPORT Waist Trimmer - Adjustable Ab Sauna Belt to help you shed the excess Water weight and tone your mid section. Black Color - One Size Fits up to 50 Inches My desire to get this belt was due to the flimsy ones handed out in medical facilities that my husband uses for his hernia. Since they can't do surgery until they make a mesh well enough this belt is the only thing holding the hernia back. I was surprised that it was so comfortable on him. When he doesn't wear it I use it for my lower back discomfort on the days that I am hurting and need the support. As you can tell we are not using it for its "trimming" effect although the material is breathable, light weight and comfortable I am not using it as directed for trimming the waistline. It gives you the comfort of pain relief without the worry of rolling down or up the Velcro band is strong, grabs well and longer than most back braces that look like this, or hernia support belts that look like this. I received this product highly discounted for purpose of review and my honest unbiased opinion and testing purposes. It has been worn by two different people since it was delivered and has not had the chance to breath. It is a great product for back support I can't stress that enough, and my husbands hernia is the size of a football and now stays in place. This is a great alternative for those looking for that kind of support. If either of us start to lose inches it is only a bonus for us. Great product.

Portable Pain Relief #TENSUNIT

Click HERE to purchase price $59.99


As a retired nurse, and a previous TENS unit owner I was surprised first at the cost which is a great deal considering the impact of pain relief it can provide. Small and portable does not decrease the intensity of pain relief the Tens Unit Muscle Stimulator - Easy@Home 16 mode portable Handheld Electronic Pulse Massager Unit, FDA approved for OTC Use pain relief therapy device on Shoulder, Waist, Joint, Back, Arm, Leg &morecan stand against any of the old bulky units that once were. I have compared this to several types first is what you receive at physical therapy with a prescription written by your doctor and the price is killer, with this unit there is no guess work and far more explanation then I have ever gotten from a medical facility.

It is as good as the old units, better than the slap on ones you get at the store which fail each time you try. The machine is simple, you charge it until the light turns green, you plug in both leads, or you can do one lead with has two pads at the end of each. In the booklet you receive the last page will give you optimal placement. The machine gives you six different settings (modes) and you can increase those settings until you feel relief. This #TENSUNIT is by far the easiest and most portable than any I have used. There are 16 auto mode procedure mode settings.



The pads wear out time is longer than the older models, and the price is not bad at all compared to the relief it gives. Much like batteries that wear out in any device you buy, they will need to be replaced and that cost is minimal. I received this product at a heavily discounted price or free for my unbiased honest opinion and testing purposes. I found that a small cosmetic bag will fit the machine and all of its components for easy storage. The unit is well made, easy to use, and very affordable for those with pain issues. I would suggest you read the disclaimers and safety information before using the product. I do not find any cons with this product for my personal situation.



Please check with your physician before purchasing or using a #TENSUNIT, there are many reason you should not use it or can cause yourself harm. I will reiterate what the product tells you, avoid if you have " cardiac pacemaker or an existing cardiac condition, implanted metal devices/screws areas of the body, pregnant or suffer from epilepsy. If you have one of the following conditions, please consult with your physician before purchasing or using this device. Any acute disease; tumor; infectious disease; pregnant; heart disease; high fever; abnormal blood pressure; lack of skin sensation or an abnormal skin condition; any condition requiring the active supervision of a physician."  This information is directly quoted from the product information
.
This is a personal choice of pain management, some choose to use medication I on the other hand do not. Opiod addiction in the USA is at an all time high (no pun intended), when relief can be given by a tens unit if you do not have the above conditions. It can give you the relief of a four hour pill without the side effects. But again this is a personal choice.

I have also used this on my son, he is an amputee and suffers from phantom pain. He describes it as a muscle ache you can never rub out. His intensity is set for a six and on the setting for the tapping which is both EMS and TENS to help relieve those sensations.

Swaggable - Yorkshire Tea



I like tea, but my husband loves tea and when he seen the box of Yorkshire on the counter I did not have the heart to tell him I was using it to review. He just hugged me and said, "Oh honey thank you. How did you know Yorkshire was my favorite brand?" Well folks, I didn't and wanted a cup, although I did not get one I did however get to taste his. He made mug after mug until it was gone! I got the empty box to smell. I do have to admit it is very refreshing, and has a smooth taste without an after bite.  I was very grateful that I was able to share in this experience and see my husband enjoy himself with smiles ear to ear. 

The Memory Journals

The Memory Journals Selfie Stick





The memory journalists aka mj selfie pro is by far the best selfie stick I have used. It came charged straight out of the box it also contains a charger and strap handle. Hooks up quickly through blue tooth on my iPhone 6. It is a positive horizontal experience that extends 34 in. I received this item for free or at a highly reduced rate for my honest unbiased opinion. Out of all selfie sticks this is my highest recommendation.  I have tested and tried several selfie stick, however this is by far my favorite of them all.

SterlingPro French Press Coffee Pot

french
I honestly had no idea what I was getting into when I bought this French Press coffee maker. I thought, I am a person that had owned every coffee type machine ever made surely I can figure this out, I mean come on how hard could this be right?

The sleek almost aristocratic look lured me in. The SterlingPro name in itself was alluring, stainless steel sure didn't hurt and when I received it I was instantly in love. He (yes I do gender my coffee pots) has a little weight to it, but just enough and balances well. Then I took it apart and thought "oh my goodness and all that is Holy what have I gotten myself into." I read the instruction booklet, I am older the print is small so it took a while. Yeah, first time what I did was not exactly what I would call coffee, it was a mess. Then almost like they knew I was going to need help the company emailed me with instructions. If I had waited a couple hours after receiving it and checked my mail I would have been fine.

I looked it up on youtube as the company suggested, I had to clean the pot with non abrasive cloth and start all over. So, I decided in my review I would put this out there for you. You will see many pots that are all see through, doesn't even look like yours. Not to worry the process is the same and you can look down into your pot. First decide how much you are going to make, I decided on the full 34 oz, That would be 8 cups or 4 mugs of coffee. Your pot comes with a scoop for coffee , I used 4 scoops of coffee, if you like it stronger, or weaker you need to adjust. I poured the water, suggested is water at 98 degrees, mine was 104 of filtered water. How do I know what I poured, my tap water is filtered and my tank is set at 104 degrees. I saturated the coffee in a circular motion, allowed it to sit for thirty seconds then added the rest of water in circular motion. I took a wooden spoon to the bottom to make sure there were no clumps. I put the machine back together using up the three minutes of brewing time. Once the three minutes or so is up slowly press down the center until it stops flush with the top, pour the coffee and drink. If you let it set in the pot for any extended length of time it becomes bitter. I don't mind bitter because I love espresso, so, I guess I figured out the difference in French press compared to brewed, espresso or percolated. I received this product at a highly reduced rate in exchange for my honest unbiased opinion and testing purposes.

Yes, it has a different taste and it is really good. It was a nice change from my regular coffee. You use a coarser grind than you normally would. Just like you use a finer grind for espresso. This is the end of my coffee lesson. I hope you enjoy your beautiful pot as much as I have. I know that I have learned a great deal in the past few days.

Angel Baby White Pillow Case

Angel Baby Toddler Pillow Case





100% Premium Cotton Percale [[ASIN:B00KGIQYEW Angel Baby Toddler Pillow Case Cover - WHITE, 100% NATURAL Cotton Percale, 400 Thread Count Sateen Weave, Machine Washable, Tumble Dry - for Kids Bedding - (14" x 20.5")]] this white striped 400 thread count #angelbaby pillow case covers the Angel Baby toddler pillow. The texture is very soft, no odor, seams are tightly sewn, slight sheen which is nice.

The pillow slipped nicely into the pillow case, and I noticed there is going to be plenty of room if there is some shrinkage, which is pretty much expected for anything made with pure cotton. It will not shrink much but it looks as if they knew it may and allowed a little extra room for that to happen naturally.  I am very pleased with this purchase, although I received a coupon discount for this product in return for my unbiased honest opinion, and my own added testing purposes. It is a fact that children tend to be a little rough on their pillows, toys, and clothes. So again there was plenty of tugging at seams which held up without any problem. I would purchase this again at retail. Angel Baby is one of my favorite companies when it comes to children.  I am adding pictures with the product on and off of the pillow so you can get an idea of the size, color and sheen.

iPhone 6S Case, i-Blason Apple iPhone 6 Case... i-Blason inc



This above image is from the website associated with the product. Although it is not mine, and it is associated with the link, it is very difficult for me to take a picture while my phone is in the product, once I figure out how to do that I will post one.

I will not post a picture of this product, the only picture I could take would be a useless blur although it is as pictured on the product page.  This #i-Blason  iPhone 6 wallet feels like real leather, but made of faux leather, many people are asking that question. I know well about faux leather as most women do, because we all have at least one purse or more made of it. Don't get caught up in the whole Vegan, Vagan leather deal just say PETA friendly. It does look and feel like real leather. The smell is what gives it away. Again, women know this smell well.

This is great product, I am new to the iPhone wallet world and had no idea how convenient it is to have one, nor did I know until this purchase that they are not all the same. This is a higher quality than my last purchase of a woman's designer type wallet. This one is sewn and not glued as well. My phone pops right in without any problem. I may have smacked myself in the face with the card slot side a few times when answering the phone, but that is because again I am still learning how to use these. The craftsmanship is great with the logo stamped on the inside. It came really close to reminding me of an Eddie Bauer wallet I had bought my dad one year.

It has pockets as described and one half slant pocket which I appreciate more than the drivers license plastic see through pocket. It took me longer to empty the old phone wallet then to fill this one, because that see through really keeps the license secure and it doesn't want to slip out easily. With this wallet I did not have that problem, I was able to store my money, cards and slip my license into the longer pocket which is behind all of the front pockets.

The closure  does a great job of staying shut regardless of how much to pack it full. I packed mine full to stress the limits of this wallet. I had other projects to do the last couple days and this phone wallet has been opened and shut many times over. Taking pictures is an ease, when done a simple finger flip and it is shut again.  My biggest problem and it has nothing to do with this purchase is the fact when I left I had to return because I accidentally mistook my husbands wallet for my phone.  I can't say enough about the packaging, very nice move with the ziploc type closure on the bag, I will find a way to reuse this, it protected the merchandise very well. I bought this at a highly reduce rate or free in exchange for my honest unbiased opinion. I may not be up with the times fully yet however trying out these new ways to carry your phone without having to chug along a big purse is starting to spoil me. I could really get to like this.

Bending the back to watch Netflix was an awesome plus, I am just getting too old to sit that close to my screen and watch a movie when I can steam it on my TV. Although for game highlights my husband enjoyed that he could stream through and catch a few of them. I am pretty stingy with my phone,could care less if you looked through it but you cannot have it for any extended period of time it makes me antsy since I do most everything on my phone. In conclusion , yes I would purchase another one at retail if someone needed it.

Deet Free Mosquito Repellent Bracelet

Deet Free All Natural Citronella Mosquito Insect Repellent Bracelet for Kids, Toddler & Adults - Safe Non Toxic Travel Size Mosquito Bug Repellent Wristband - 60d Money Back Guarantee! (Polyurethane)Offered by VITCHELO



I must admit I was very skeptical about these bracelets. Now they are going to be something I order and keep on hand for Spring, Summer and Fall. That's right our mosquitoes do not care, if the temperature is above 55, we have mosquito's. I have a lake which is nothing but a breeding ground, most of the time my husband, son, daughter all come in looking like they have a case of chicken pox. Huge hives everywhere. I put a bracelet on my daughter in law, she was the the one picked for my experiment. I had her walking in places I am sure she has not seen in years. Tall weeds, under the wild rose bush where they lay in wait to attack. Finally the biggest test was the lake, it is standing water partially covered with algae and you can see them swarming.

What happened, absolutely nothing, there were no bites not even a nibble. On the other hand I had one covered in a well known brand of spray and they were eat up with bites, we tried the next leading brand of deep woods although there were only a few bites I was disappointed that these products I have used for years are really not fully effective, smell very strong and cancel out the sunscreen especially while mowing. With the #momagrouplimited Deet free All Natural Citronella Repellent bracelets I felt much safer with my family outside.


The smell is slight Citronella, almost pleasant, easy to put on and covers the person standing next to the person wearing the bracelet. I received this product at a highly reduced rate in exchange for my unbiased honest review. I will buy this product again at retail. There are four bracelets, once you come in take it off and seal it back in the package. It will last up to 120 hours of coverage, safe on children and toddlers for wrists or around the ankle.

ArtNaturals Aloe Vera Gel

I picked out this product for one reason, and that reason was part of my family went to a water park and came home looking like lobsters. I thought if I had Aloe Vera Gel it would have eased the pain, but I could not find any. When I came across this, since it is 100 percent pure Aloe it would not ever go bad even though it has a three year expiration date, it just does not go bad.
It can be used for many things that are dermatitis related to soothe the skin. I have in the past used it around my eyes from allergies making me rub them too much and they are sensitive, but last night I had the perfect opportunity to use it. It rained all day long, so the ground was wet, standing water everywhere; the air was humid and thick. The mosquito’s were loving on me. I came in and counted over 20 mosquito bites. Most get a little bump where they itch, mine are the size of a half dollar.
I slathered on some the ‪#‎ArtNaturals‬ Aloe Vera Gel and my skin was happy again. It is not instantaneous, but over five minutes the itch slowed down dramatically and I was no going nuts any longer. I keep mine in the refrigerator although you don’t have to I just like the added coolness. To me it doesn’t smell, there is no fragrance other than Aloe Vera just like the plant. I remember my mom used always have one in the kitchen when we grew up in case we burned ourselves; she would break a leaf and squeeze it on our burns, rashes, poison ivy you name it that was her cure all. It is not an unpleasant odor and frankly I am not sure you can even consider it an odor.
I am trying to decide, since this question comes up a lot when I write about some fluid I bought. To explain the smell would be like trying to explain what a honeysuckle flower smells like. Of course it smells like honeysuckle, just as Aloe Vera smells like Aloe. It absorbs quickly doesn’t leave a residue, and all natural. This product did well with explaining on the bottle itself, you would never find an over the counter product with this much information. I received this product for free or at a highly reduced rate in exchange for my honest unbiased opinion. I would purchase this product again at retail.
It comes with a pump, you can use the pump or not use the pump it is your choice. I decided I did not want to use the pump. The color is clear and doesn’t stain clothes, again no noticeable fragrance, and fast working. It is a good idea for everyone to have at least one bottle on hand. In the winter it will sooth cracked hands. wind burn, and lips, in the summer soothe burns and all the wonderful poison ivy, sumac,oak, you name it that we have out there. This would include skin conditions such as contact dermatitis, eczema, dry scaly skin, irritated skin, you name it it will soothe it.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0128PJ7T4…

Iphone 6 Wallet Case

This wallet case by #shimu is well made, stitched not glued, bends easily to watch Amazon prime, or Netflix on much like a stand. I was also surprised at the durable little stylus that comes with it, along with a screen protector which I had not expected nor did I notice when ordering this product.


If you have never used one of these much like myself it take a little to get used to putting your credit cards it in, but I think that is a matter of choice. I like things that once in place are snugly fit together, there is a slight gap although the closure can accommodate the added cards or whatever it is you want to stash in the side.  It also comes with a little tie handle that you put on yourself, it can be used with or without it. I put mine on because it is easier to carry to the store if I have it around my wrist.

I am attaching pictures, please forgive the quality I had to first figure out how I was going to take a picture without my phone and still allow you to see what it looks like with the phone in it. I used another product, which is clearly not made for taking pictures.  I received this product at a highly reduced rate or free for my honest unbiased opinion. #shimu

    Beauty Box - Target



    Target had beauty boxes of full size products on promotion for five dollars. I decided to check it out and bought one for myself, another for daughter.  I was pleasantly surprised, there were no shipping cost, the box was a medium size and well secured, inside everything was wrapped like a gift box with nice green tissue paper. #TargetStyle

    The box was full inside there were full size products.
    1. Goody Ouchless elastic hair ties in various colors
    2. Bathery Pumice stone
    3. Hollywood Fashion Tape for when your blouse tends to pull apart between buttons this keeps it in place.
    4. CoverGirl Colorlicious Lip Gloss
    5. wet n wild Max  volume plus mascara
    6. Herbal Essence Wild Naturals dry body oil
    7. Yes to Cucumbers ten count facial towlettes

    I tried them all today and will explain step by step how I used each one and what I felt about the product. I will tell you in story format as if we were friends and I was relating my day.  Today is my father's birthday and I needed to be there early.  I opened my beauty box and pulled my hair back with a black Goody Ouchless elastic band and took a shower. When done I sat on the side of the tub and used the Bathery Pumice stone to smooth out my slightly calloused edges until they were smooth and applied the Herbal Essence Wild Natural dry body oil, and it smelt lovely, fresh, and clean.

    I proceeded to get dressed put a little Hollywood Tape at my third button to fourth, and noticed how smooth my skin was without any residue from using the dry oil. I cleansed my face with Yes to Cucumbers facial wipes, applied the wet n wild Max volume mascara; while it was drying I applied the CoverGirl Colorlicious Lip Gloss and pleasantly surprised how light it was, the mascara had dried making my lashes look full. Then out the door I went #TargetStyle.

    Addendum : Mama has glaucoma, I did not have my glasses on and I used the hair oil Herbal Essence Wild Natural on my body. I used it on my hair today, I am going to keep using it on my body although that is not what it is for.

    I Will Not Live Forever

    I am not concerned that anyone I know may read my blog; it is highly unlikely that they even know I realize how to blog, which I find extremely amusing. You see, they think I am getting older and when computer were invented was also the time I learned to use one. Little do they know I have been blogging for over ten years on various sites.

     Here I am, one day they will find this knowing that I care, have always been there through tough and good times. Mama's do not live forever, something I have figured out eight months ago. There are things I wish I had said, done, or acted more appropriately. I can only pray she left us knowing how much I loved her. That word "love" is the key to all things; it can overcome everything even hate. A little advice if you will indulge me for a post or two.

     When talking to your Mother remember above all things to never yell, raise your voice, or antagonize her. This is not only a sign of disrespect, but weakness on your part. This is the woman that raised you to be the person you are; she is not a child to be reprimanded. If we lived in an era two generations ago this type of behavior would have you picking your teeth up from the floor, severe ringing in the ears, and a remembrance that irregardless of your age she is still your Mother and commands the respect she deserves.

     Each moment you have should be treasured, remembered, and non confrontational. If you are an adult living in her home do not think it gives you the right to speak to her on your level ; she is not your friend. She is your Mother. I am gender neutral, can never go to the bathroom alone without conversation, nor have a telephone conversation between person A and B without person C sticking their nose in. There is no privacy when you are a Mother from the day they come home until the day you pass out of this world to a better place.

     Do not put us in the middle of a sibling argument, every Mom handles this differently; my response is, "I can't stand either one of you exactly the same right now." Which means I refuse to take sides. A story has two sides and somewhere between the beginning and the end is the truth. I am sick, and the stress makes my illness worse. I find myself in pain and the chaos begins, I mean seriously you can't do this when I am feeling great? Ten hours straight of bickering has my pain trigger at an all time high, but you don't seem to care, you have a bad case of diarrhea of the mouth.

     Do not try tears on me they do not work, nor does anger, loudness, screaming, or the famous pity party. I do not feel guilty, because I invented it! Every Mother has their own form of guilting you into doing something positive with your life if only you could return the favor with some kindness.

     As I sit here at two in the morning, starting this post three pages, exactly two hours ago with my mind flowing vigorously of the past day I tried but cannot sleep an all too familiar occurrence. The pain is hurting, but you all know that I need to be alert for Grandpa.

     The lack of empathy astounds the senses , where did it all go wrong, exactly when did it all go wrong? I took you to church, then adulthood hit and you abandoned those ideals however I am grateful that you show compassion and share your "bible" teachings although you do not understand the magnitude of which scripture speaks.

     I am not ageless, I will pass why not enjoy the time we have instead of what is happening now?

    Inconsiderate Adult Children NEED to move OUT!


    When adult children move back home LORD help you!  They seem to have forgotten the rules or you have been so soft that they are taking your emotional attachment for granted. Now here is a clue in no it is not happening again kiddo.  I have rules; you cannot follow them then pack your bags and leave.

    This is what the current state of affairs has become. She comes and goes as she sees fit however  more than fifty percent of the time she doesn’t show up for upward of five days without calling, texting, or leaving some kind of message. You have become so damn inconsiderate that I want to change all the locks on the doors.  

    Example: I have a note on my computer telling me she would be home at one ummmm, like the one right after noon.  Yet here I sit at one in the morning. She left at 6 am, what the hell do you do all day long when you have no job?  I say that maybe you should have taken that time to find one!  You use my cell phone, TV (cable), pay no rent, and refuse to clean up after yourself, internet, computer and all of your personal items purchased for you along with your cigarettes. Hmmm I think I am getting screwed! 

    Tonight it stops; tonight I take back my home, my life and my sanity. You are a grown woman time to get your shit together and quit acting like you are 15. Treating me discourteously has ended get a job, move back in with your husband. Get a clue!

    Although I may sound harsh, it has become a fact of life that there is no respect. When your child acts out there are consequences in life for your actions. I am not going to be and enabler any longer.

    Facebook and Politics

    Last week I watched the RNC and each day I read the posts of elated Republicans most my age spouting rhetoric, disparaging remarks about our current president and just shook my head, "let them speak it is in the constitution give them the right to be proud right now"...but when I did read an incorrect or absurd comment I simply replied thank God it is not a crime to be ignorant.

     

    Last night I watched the DNC and as a Dem I was elated and proud yet the Rep continued the onslaught of absurd stupidity (not all but most) I was even called a bitch for a blanket "ignorant people" remark I made. I am not a Dem that needs a backbone I have one and if you cannot act like an adult and have an intellectual conversation about our differences here on FB how the hell do you think we got into the situation we are in? A congress that won't do their job because they want him out...really? Then let's not pay them. But to bash the First Lady you are just not right in your head.

     

    That is on my "home" page, yet the younger generation are all excited and writing intellectual comments even if they disagree. No personal attacks, no repeating lies, just solid fact checking. So my point is...if you cannot agree to disagree without calling names please unfriend me because I do not deal with ignorance well at all...I am giving you the chance to do it before I do it for you.

     

    And for the record the majority of Obamacare doesn't even kick in until 2014...and a little logic about drug testing welfare recipients who are they getting money from? Ohh the gov't so who will pay for all those tests?...yeah you see where I am coming from? And you have to exclude all of Cali and Colorado because it is legal...a conundrum to say the least. Btw...I don't even know anyone getting a check from welfare , the direction card to help ends meet while both parents work.. yes I do know people like that but they are already drug tested at their jobs. I think you forget there was a time when you spoke ill of the President you would get called on it. I am a proud American , a proud Dem and if you are not down with that...bite me
