One of the most watched YouTube videos at this moment? Make up….

Posted by LisaRenee  Published in Computers/Technology, Fluff/Personal

I didn’t believe it until I watched it, but when I logged on to YouTube to do some searching for a song, I noticed under the “What’s being watched right now” tab was this video on how to make your eyes “Silver Icy” — I admit I don’t wear any make up at all, but [...]

The internet is also for industries…

Posted by LisaRenee  Published in Business/Finance, Computers/Technology

Many people think of the internet as a great way to do personal business and to socialize as well as the news aspect, but for many companies, they profit from using the internet for their own industries, such as buying and selling industrial equipment online.

Sixpence None the Richer…Kiss Me…

Posted by LisaRenee  Published in Fluff/Personal, Music flashbacks

Still in walking down memory lane of the songs that my husband and I both felt were “noteworthy” during the early days of our relationship comes “Kiss Me” — I can’t explain exactly why this song ended up being one of “our” songs beyond it was very popular at the time and it seemed as [...]

Love and Life

Posted by LisaRenee  Published in Fluff/Personal, Music flashbacks

Marriages go through up and down periods, mine appears to be in one of those “up” periods despite some of the challenges we have had to face recently. This has created some reminiscing about the very early stage of our relationship when we had “our” songs that we used to play when the long [...]
