freck456 says "Love the printer, hate the cost of the ink cartridge!!" about Lexmark 1400

freck456 — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 04:22:53 GMT

The Lexmark 1400 printer is so fast, is wireless and I can print from any room in the house. The price was so unbelievably cheap, I jumped at the chance to own a wireless printer for my laptop. The quality is excellent, but the major drawback is cost of the ink cartridges and the fact that each one does not print many pages. Fortunately, I bought several when Circuit City was going out of business, which was inexpensive, but how often will that happen? Expensive printer to maintain. Period. But, when you weigh the convenience....hard to decide.

freck456 says "Look no further, this is THE laptop you want!" about Hp HP 6730s

freck456 — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 03:51:13 GMT

The HP 6730s far surpassed any expectations I had for a new laptop. I just retired and this is the first laptop I have purchased, having had one available me for use at work and home for 30 years. So, I was looking for quality, price, and something very mobile and lightweight. I got so much more than that! Lightning fast, amazing resolution, full-screen image, loads of storage. The tech at work helped me through the process as I am not the most knowlegeable about the specs of a computer, but I do know what I want to do with it: upload and store digital photos, word processing, email, Facebook, Google Chrome, calendar etc. This does it all!

freck456 says "Spray, Spray, Sniff, Sniff...I'm good to go!" about Schering Corporation Nasonex Nasal Spray

freck456 — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 06:05:31 GMT

I used to be plagued by constant sinus infections which meant a trip to the doctor, long hours in the waiting room, time off work, prescription for antibiotics only to have the cycle repeated again in a few months, year after year. Then, a new doctor put me on a daily dose of Nasonex coupled with a daily dose of Allegra and viola!...no more sinus infections, no more antibiotics. I am virtually allergy-free with one minor bout of hay fever when the spring blossoms appear. Living in an agricultural valley, blossoms erupt and the air is filled with aroma and aaahhhhchooos!! It is beautiful, but luckily, short-lived....

freck456 says "If I could have only ONE sinus medication, this would be it!" about Benadryl Allergy and Sinus Headache Gelcaps

freck456 — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 05:07:50 GMT

I have a very difficult time with any decongestants. They make me very nervous, give me nightmares and make me feel worse than not taking them. Benadryl Allergy and Sinus Headache medicine never does this to me. I can sleep at night and don't feel drowsy in the morning. The best part is that my sinus headache is always better. I have always used the tablets, but would use try the gelcaps, I just didn't notice them before. Gelcaps seem to work faster. I am all about that. I trust Benadryl products --they are safe and effective and have been depended upon for generations....

freck456 says "The Message is the Movie" about FIREPROOF

freck456 — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 19:54:01 GMT

Fireproof is a must see for every married person, or anyone desiring to be. Starring Kirk Cameron brings the star power to the screen that a Christian movie deserves to drive home the message of fidelity and "until death do us part" in a deeply moving and well-acted manner. You are captivated by the advice given to the husband by his father and the difficulty he has following it. BUT, he does follow it and it works! Just like when we follow the word of God as outlined in the Bible--it does work. Is it easy? NOPE. BUT, it does work. Sometimes, the timing is not ours, but like the movie, persistance pays off. Great gift when it comes out in DVD!...

freck456 says "If you haven't eaten a Mimi's muffin, you haven't lived yet!" about Mimi's - Fresno, CA

freck456 — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 04:43:11 GMT

Mimi's Restaurant is located in River Park, an upscale shopping area with movie theatres, beautiful grounds, anchor stores like Target, Home Goods, Nordstrom Rack, and a plethora of restaurants where you could eat all day long and still not scratch the surface of the palate pleasers waiting for you. You can even read books at Borders and sip a latte at Starbucks. It is the place to be, BUT if you wanna eat at Mimi's, be prepared for a loooong wait. I have never been there when I did not have to wait longer than I wanted to, be hungrier than I needed to be, which can cause a shopper to get cranky! Good soups, great comfort food and worth the price, but I hate to wait!...

freck456 says "Don't Bypass the Fiskars Bypass!" about Fiskars Bypass Pruner

freck456 — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 04:27:03 GMT

I own several pairs of bypass pruners, but find myself usually reaching for my Fiskars. The only Fiskars model I find difficult to use is the one where the handle rotates. It is hard for me to hang on to....not what a gardener wants!! That model slips too easily. When shopping for garden tools, Fiskars is always a choice due to it's durability and proven quality. The test for me is that I can deadhead flowers with only one hand and not need to hold on to the stem when I am clipping....too much work for me!...
