Set my kitty flea! SENTRY Fiproguard for Cats, Flea and Tick Prevention for Cats

Image
Despite my cat's penchant for staying inside, she occassionally prefers to go outside. I completely understand. As a rescue from the harsh streets of Fresno, I am sure the lure of the outside calls for her. In anticipation of whatever may come her way, I make a montly habit of applying flea protective gel on her back. My tried and true favorite is SENTRY Fiproguard for Cats. Available here, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007CRCO8U/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Allured by the tempation of a lower price, I recently tried another brand, which I do not recommend. I let the lower price fool me and was disappointed when only one application (instead of 6) was included. Buyer beware...always be sure to check the quantity included. Aside from the price difference, the other brand was more difficult to open and apply, whereas SENTRY was comparatively easy to both open and apply.

Noise Cancelling AirPods: Spendy, but worth it?

Image
Apple AirPods Generation 2 with noise cancelling are a great choice for teenagers who want to enjoy their music or podcasts without being disturbed by external noise. The earbuds are lightweight and comfortable, making them perfect for everyday use. The noise cancelling feature is impressive, blocking out most of the ambient noise around you, so you can focus on your audio content.

My teenage daughter loves these earbuds and uses them every day. She says they are comfortable to wear and the noise cancelling feature is amazing. She can listen to her music without any distractions, even when she’s in a noisy environment. S...

At-Home Workouts

I've been a really big fan of at-home workouts for years. In my 20's and 30's, I worked out at various gyms. Some very luxe and expensive, others very basic. I remained the same weight, which wasn't bad, but not great. Then I had lunch with some former co-workers and one of them lost a TON of weight. I asked him his secret and he mentioned that he was doing T25/Alpha. I visited the Beachbody website and used the selector tool to find the best workout for me. If you don't want to commit to the Beachbody on Demand (which can be a pricey subscription), you can also find good workouts through ">Amazon Prime Video . I like the Studio S Bootcamp series, myself. Some quick kick-start tips: 1. Make it a habit. 2. Commit to doing at least 3-5 workouts a week. 3. Set your alarm clock for the same time each morning and workout. Even if you only do one exercise.

Is Apple Really the Epitome of Simple Design?

I lost my left AirPod today. I was at the UPS store and it popped out of my ear. Luckily, I found it when I went back. But, before that, I searched online to see about its replacement and cost. It's pretty pricey and would require some unadvised venturing out. So...I took a deep breath and wondered. Do I really need these? I decided that I did. I mean, the price is worth the pleasure of listening to my music and audiobooks wirelessly. Sometimes the price of simplicity is not really aligned with minimalism.
