Do you need some more gift ideas?

December 8, 2006 by Tricia

Your in luck if you’re still looking for Christmas gifts for your favorite people. Optics planet is having a sale and they have an huge selection of holiday gifts for you to choose from. Is there a chance that your parents or maybe your brother might get some use out of a pair of binoculars? If not then perhaps some sunglasses, goggles, rangefinders or even one of their many types of flashlights might be a good choice?

Optics planet offers discount prices on brand name products and right now they are also providing free UPS delivery on orders that are over $29.95.

Screwed up sleep cycle

December 8, 2006 by Tricia

I’m exhausted.

I find myself staying up all night because of my pain and then sleeping well into the day. yeah I’m sleeping but my body really wants to sleep at night.

When I do get up my head is foggy and I can’t concentrate as well these days. I need to try to turn my rotten sleep cycle around again.

I’ve thought of trying to stay up through the night and into the day and then crashing sometime in the evening, but whenever I’ve tried that I only sleep for a few hours and wake up in so much pain that I’m awake for several hours before I can get it under control and go to bed again, and often by that time it’s like 6 am. Grrr.

I’ve got to turn this around.

Are you looking for an internship?

December 8, 2006 by Tricia

I know several people, who, when they’ve graduated from College or University end up having a hard time finding an internship so that they can begin their career. So I was pleased to see that there’s a website, UK based that puts companies searching for interns and people looking for internships together.

If you are looking for Internships Abroad then you need to check out this site.

The site is easy to use. Simply fill in the kind of internship that you are looking for in the quick search box, when you’d be available and what Country you’d like to work in (currently the UK and Spain are listed) and a list of available internships will come up for you to browse.

Whats been happening with Tricia’s Musings lately

Thirteen Things about What’s been happening

This is Thursday Thirteen #27

1…. Some how I’ve managed to be listed over at The bestest Blog of all time as the Bestest blog of the day – Today.

2…. One thing that made him notice my site was that he was visiting Technorati and looking up sites that he links to or that linked to him and he says that my site had the most links out of all of the blogs he lists on his site. Actually I’ve been watching my Technorati rank lately and I’m pleased to say that I’ve reached the rank of 994 on Technorati. That’s amazing!

3…. I just finished doing an interview for Matt Clarke’s blog Mr. Joe’s Blog and to my amazement he published it right away So I’m being featured on two sites today. Coolness.

4…. While I was writing up that blog interview I filled in another one that had been sent to me by Blog TO. That’s a site about all the goings on in Toronto. I don’t know when it will be posted but when it is it will be featured in their Blogerati section.

5…. A few weeks ago I was invited to become a team member over at a blog called 192 Countries. The site owner wanted to get one blogger from 192 Countries to write in his blog and he choose me to write for Canada. I’m all signed up but I’ve yet to create a post over there. I need to make some time later today to do that.

6…. What else has been going on? Oh I’ve been working on Mr Fabs blogs – 4 of them! Remember folks I’m starting to work on peoples blog themes and doing sidebar fixes etc so if you need some help I’d be happy to help you for a small fee.

7…. As I weren’t busy enough I’ve been working on creating three new blogs. One will be my husbands and the other two will be mine. They’re called Celebrity Scoop, The Web Files and Guitar Licks. Guess which one is my husbands?

8…. In the middle of November I stumbled across 451press and I saw that they were going to be accepting new bloggers in a week. I bookmarked the site and went back and applied to write a television related blog. I just found out last week that I was accepted. So add another blog to the list of blogs that I’m writing or write on, this one is called Watching House and it’s about the television show House MD. I’ll be filling it with juicy tidbits about Hugh Laurie for all his fans out there. Come see the new blog.

9…. I’ve been feeling very guilty about not visiting all the Wordless Wednesday, Thursday Thirteen, Photo Scavenger hunt people or my blogging friends lately. I’ve just been so busy and on top of that I’m really not feeling well. I’m sorry. I will get back to all of my regular visits soon. I will.

10…. Nothing much else has been happening in my world. I’ve officially been off work with my Crohns for just over a year. Boooooooo

11…. Chris is working in his new job. I think this is his third week. It’s not quite as busy as being a porter but being a Recovery room attendant has been keeping him busy. The hours are regular and we should start seeing slightly larger paychecks coming in from his work soon. Yahhhh

12…. As usual I’ve been up pretty much of the night. This time though I fell asleep on the couch at about 10:30 just as I was going to start working on Fabs sites. Yep sorry Fab, it seems that whenever I’m working on your sites I get sleepy. I did have a huge headache though so that might have been part of it too.

13…. Nothing else is happening. I’m busy enough I think, I don’t need any other major stuff to be happening.

Please only list your name if you have a recent Thursday Thirteen post

Grrr forget the Mr Linky I had an apostrophe in “What’s” in the title earlier and when I saved the post and continued editing it would let me set up Mr. Linky because Mr Linky doesn’t like apostrophes or question marks Grrr

Might refurnish the living room

December 7, 2006 by Tricia

Whenever we manage to finish our renovations, particularly of our living room I think I’m going to refurnish the main floor. I’ve been spending time looking at this luxury furniture site and I really like the furniture that they have on display.

We already have an antique dinning room set with Buffet that I inherited from my parents so I think I’d be concentrating of furniture for the living room. I really like the look of the Magestic Monte Carlo wall unit set. The description says that it fits a 50 inch TV and that’s what we’ve got. It would be nice to have a real entertainment unit as we aren’t using one right now. Oh we’ve got a special Tv stand for our big TV and most of the electronic extras that go with it fit underneath but I’d like to have a place where I could store the CDs and DVDs and other nick nacks. Have a look at the site yourself and see if you think you could use any of their luxury furniture.
