I needed to go to the store yesterday.  First, I went to coupons.com and looked for coupons.  I found two coupons I wanted and printed them off on my printer.  Then I drove to a local store, shopped for my items and then went to the check out counter.  I also have an application on my iPhone that allows all my rewards cards to be stored on the iPhone.  I pulled up the Key Ring Reward Cards application and selected the bar code for the store I was at.  I was able to have the clerk scan the bar code that was on my iPhone.  I think the cash register rung up the items with the discount for the reward card.  The only thing I forgot to do was go to the Cellfire Mobile Coupons application on the iPhone.  I could of selected the coupons I wanted and then select that I want to add them to the reward card.  Then when the clerk would of scanned the reward card, they would of automatically been taken off the total price at the check out register.  Next time I will plan my trip out a little better.

Here I am with my wonderfully decorated pumpkin.  I had no idea what to do when I was told to pick out a pumpkin and start decorating it.  I ended up taking a wet paper towel and wiping up all the mistakes that I made.  I looked around and saw that a lot of other people were giving their pumpkin hair.  So, I decided that my pumpkin was going to go blond.  I dont’ think I will ever perfect making ears.  I was told that you just make a question mark on the side of his face in order to make it look like an ear.  I would say that my pumpkin did not turn out too bad.

My Halloween adventure involved helping a friend to decorate her yard.  Here is some pictures of the decorating process.  Above you will find the “welcome” sign.

The Halloween spider web.

The Halloween graves made out of garbage bags.
At night, they produce an effect of raised dirt.

The witch in the coffin.  A friend of hers made the coffin.
Then she lined it with red felt.
A shirt was then stuffed with newspapers and
then a hand was attached to the sleeve.

Here is the scary guy behind me.  Some how I just
don’t look that convincing that I am in danger.

First stop after this, was the Carlos O’Kelly’s here in Omaha, Nebraska.
Rather good Mexican food they serve.

Next stop, was Skinny Bones corn maze which is located near Blair Nebraska.  I went with some friends through this ten acre long corn maze.  Except on Saturday nights, it is the haunted night.  They had monsters and creatures that were within the corn maze.  One character we came to was a person in a straight jacket wearing a hockey mask.  He was just standing there in the middle of the path.  I have to admit that it is rather weird trying to walk around a guy dressed like this.  You feel that at any moment that he will jump out at you.  We also met a guy dressed as a chef, but not a very trusting chef since he had blood all over him.  I think he was wanting one of our ears for a meal that he was fixing.  I can’t say he actually said this. But between the screams from my friends, I think it sounded like what he was asking for.  One friend told me that he told her that we were going the wrong way.  Now who is going to trust a bloody chef that we are going in the right direction?  We went ahead and went that direction since we were already lost.  We came to a circle and ended up coming back the same direction to where the bloody chef was.  The chef delightfully said in a scary voice, “I told you that was the wrong way”.

I got a Clarity Amplified Photo Phone for my mom recently.  It has all the features that would be good for someone in a nursing home.  First of all, it has a spot that you can put pictures of the people that she wants to call.  All she has to do is lift up the phone and then press the picture button to dial the person that she wants to call.  One of the pictures is of me and will dial me directly in Omaha, Nebraska.  The phone also provides sound amplification and a flashing ringer for those that are hard of hearing.  The phone has some great benefits that really suit my mom’s needs.

However; the phone must of accidently got knocked on the floor and the plastic covering came off of where the photos were.  Some how in the process, the plastic covering and the parts to the pictures got lost.  I went to the Clarity website and found a customer service number to call.  I asked them how much it would cost for me to buy the plastic covering and the backing part where the pictures belong.  To my surprise, they shipped me these parts free of charge to my home.  Their customer service is great!

I also got my mom a toll free phone number so that her friends and relatives can call her toll free.  I use the service through Ringcentral.com.  I get text messages whenever someone leaves my mom a phone message if she is not able to answer the phone.  That way I can let my mom know that someone tried to call her.  I also have downloaded the iPhone application called RingCentral Mobile.  I can press some buttons on my phone to dial my mom’s phone first.  Once my mom answers, it will automatically dial the person that I told it to call.  So, instead of my mom having to pull out a phone book or put her glasses on, I can remotely dial any phone number my mom wants to call.  My mom can also dial me toll free by pressing the picture of me that is on phone.  I also have made it so that my mom’s toll free phone number will not ring her room if she is sleeping or off eating in the lunchroom.  Either way, my mom will get her messages because I will relay them to her.  I basically pay a monthly fee to let the service do most of the work for me.
