I love ice cream! We stopped by the ice store the other day, its one of my favorite places to go. I just love to walk around and see the different kinds there are. Rocky roads, chocolate chip, and peach are some of ones I usually get.

The problem is that there are too many kinds to choose from. I have trouble making up my mind! Each one looks so good. Lately, I’ve been trying to broaden my horizons and trying the ones I’ve never had. It’s a long process, but I think it will pay off in the end!

Music is one of my favorite pastimes. I enjoy in my car and at work as well. I’m always on the lookout for new groups with a fresh angle. I think I have found one of those groups, they are one of the up and coming new hip hop artists . I first heard about them from a friend who really keeps up with the latest trends. She told me about an album that’s called KRANKMUZIK*.

I went onto myspace.com and had a chance to listen to some of their songs for free. I was really impressed by their sound. They have some great harmony and the lyrics reflect the times we live in. You can check out these guys by going to iceblocmusic.com. They have a really interesting site and I had a lot of fun checking it out.

I really liked the graphics this band has. It seems that my friend was right when she told me about this group. I especially liked one song that was called RideSlow. It reminded me of a different time in my life. I think everyone should go to the site called IceBloc.com and see for your self. I know that you will be in for a treat when you do.

As I have been working on cleaning out the house and garage, I’ve had a number of things I wished to throw away. I did wonder what the implications would be for our earth. I went online to find out. I came up with a short list of things that need to be recycled or donated.

Batteries- In many cases, batteries can be taken back to a store such as Home Depot, Best Buy, or Radio Shack for recycling. It’s important to keep these out of the landfill.

Electronics- Most of the same stores listed above will also take back things like mobile phones. You can also search for places to take computers, televisions, and cameras.

Motor Oil- Most gas stations will take used motor oil as well stores like Wal-Mart, Jiffy Lube, and AutoZone.

Paint- you’ll need to research for a place to take paint. It is important to find somewhere to bring it for proper disposal. So keep trying!

CFLs- these old bulbs can usually be taken to stores like IKEA or Home Depot.

I hope everyone will make an effort to make sure these items are disposed of properly. We really need to start making a greater effort to keep our earth green!

My older sister Noreen called me the other day. She told me she was going out on a date. It seems that she has been going out on a lot of dates lately and I asked her where she was meeting all these guys. She told me about a website for older females called cougers.net.

She really likes the site. She said she added her photos, joined in the chat room, and was sending emails and instant messages to the guys she liked. Since she is now single, she is taking full advantage of cougar dating. Noreen has always been outgoing and fun. I know she’ll have a great time!
