So here it is:-

A man came  home from work and found his three children outside, still in their pyjamas,  playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the  front yard.

The  door of his wife’s car was open, as was the front door to the house and there was no sign of the dog.

Proceeding  into the hall, he found the coat hanger been knocked over, and the  throw rug was wadded against one  wall.

In  the front room the TV was blaring a cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of  clothing.

In  the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, and the fridge door was wide  open.

Dog  food was spilled all over the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small  pile of sand was spread by the back  door.

He  quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his wife.

He  was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened.

He  was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom door.

As  he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn over the floor.

Miles  of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls.

As  he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pyjamas, reading a  novel.

She  looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day  went.

He  looked at her bewildered and asked, ‘What happened here  today?’

She  again smiled and answered, ‘You know every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world I do all  day?’

‘Yes,’  was his incredulous reply.

She  answered, ‘Well, today I didn’t do  it.’

 Well unless you think about using Outsource your Life! then there generally isn’t another option.

I can’t wait until the day they design a robot that can do all the mundane stuff.  But in the meantime why not get yourself a special edition,  genuine 7-foot tall, fully animatronic remote - controlled version of Robby.

Robby Who????    Robby the Robot from the 1956 film Forbidden Planet. 

This robot has been made from the blueprints, molds and templates that were used to create the original. Only the finest materials have been used and Robby is pre-programmed to deliver the lines he made famous in the original movie.

The remote control allows you to adjust the volume, track selection and stop and start functions.  He will also move, rotate his servo-controlled head and rotate his scanners while various lights flash. Robby has an integral audio system which produces cd - quality sound from a directional speaker system in his head. You can connect the sound system to a home theater system and you can even project your own voice through Robby’s sound system with the wireless microphone which is included.

The body is constructed of fiberglas so it will not warp over time and all the metals are machine-grade brass, titanium and aluminum for lasting durability and quality.

Robby the Robot is only available from Hammacher Schlemmer.

I so want one of these.

I am an absolute fan of bath oils, massage and body oils, candles, pot pourri in fact anything that keeps my house smelling nice.

Jennine makes her range of perfumes and oils and is always coming up with new mixtures that smell divine. She usually sells her whole range out whenever she attends the local markets.

She also blends herbal teas which can be uplifting or calming depending on the blend. Particular favourites of mine are the christmas chai and the Mulberry.

So if you are looking for a great gift or just want to spoil yourself, I can definitely recommend the quality of the products from Avalon Essences as both Paula and I use them with confidence.

Now that’s where this little beauty comes in handy.
The Robotic Floor Washer can clean the floor of a a 16′ x 20′ room with an average amount of furniture in about 45 minutes or up to 2 hours without human intervention. When the dust bin is full the Roomba robotic floor vacuum signals the owner with a light, to let you know it needs to be emptied.

There is a scheduling remote and two Virtual Wall schedulers that create an i nfrared beam so that you can contain the vacuum in one room, and you can schedule the Roomba Discovery SE to clean at up to seven preset times.

The unit is only available from Hammacher Schlemmer and is definately well worth checking out.

These shirts have the added bonus of allowing you to tan right through the fabric, how cool is that.

Just recently I had some soy candles sent to me and apart from the lovely fragrances they are 99% soot free because there is no petroleum wax in these soy candles. 

Soy candles seldom trigger allergies because they are non-toxic.

 What I like about these candles are that apart from the absolutely delicious aromas they are not expensive so they are perfect for the cost conscious buyer .

Check out the fragrances available:

HERB SPICE
Therepe Travel Soy Candle - Indian Chai

FLORAL GARDEN
Therepe Scented Soy Jar Candles - Gardenia

 
HERB
Erome Scented Soy Jar Candles - Persian Lime & Ginger (Tester)
Therepe Scented Soy Tin Candles - Thai Lemongrass

Saks plans to almost double the number of shoes that they have for sale and are planning to devote the entire eighth floor of the Manhattan store to shoes.

The shoe department will be named 10022-SHOE and will enter the history books as the first floor of a department store to be given its own designated ZIP code by the United States Post Office.

Fantastic news for those women with shoe obsessions similar to that of former Philippines first lady Imelda Marcos.
