For as long as I can remember I have liked black when it has come to electronics or gadgets. I don’t know why but if it is because I am getting older or what but I can not find anything. Our cordless phones are black, my cell is black, the remotes are black, heck even my laptop is black and they all blend in and are impossible to find!! You would not believe how long it takes me to find stuff. I am not going to even get started on the cords that charge everything. Wouldn’t it be great if you could get different colors? Maybe purple for my cell, orange for my iPod.
I found this online and thought it sounded like fun. It is a meme started by The Pursuit of Mommyness that lets you link your blog and leave a comment about two blogs you like. You do not have to write a blog post to participate inConnect MEme Monday. You can just leave a comment. It sounds like a great way to discover some new blogs while spreading some love.
The two blogs I choose for this week are :

Sophistishe: Finding Zen in Being Human
She is a great mom to the lovable Boogie who is almost 2. I just love her. Sheena is really sweet and honest.She helps me to look at things differently She writes very well and takes great pictures to0.
This is another great site that I visit every day. You will find great giveaways, product reviews, and posts about what goes on in her daily life. You will even see some great information you can use.
Last week a told you guys how I am a brand Ambassador for The View. I get to share with you upcoming storylines and we can all share what we think with each other.
Today was a day of hot topics. Of course the first topic was about the whole Tiger Woods press conference. Now I am not going to lie and say I watched it because I did not. I like to play golf on the Wii but I am not a big fan of it and do not watch it at all. Between Facebook and Twitter I pretty much heard all about it. It is everywhere. I have heard people say “Despite the decisions in his personal life, he is still the best golf player alive,” or “I don’t watch him because of his family I watch him because of his talent”. Then there is the other side of coin “He is a horrible, horrible man and I will never support his golf career” and “He is a disgrace to golf and a huge disappointment. He should not be allowed to golf anymore”. I do not think that this needs to have so much focus in the media. I am sick of hearing about it honestly. What do you think?
So today is the day that the Credit Card Reform goes into effect. One of the good things about this is if you are 21 and under you have to prove that you can make payments or have a cosigner. Statements will include information about how long it will take you to pay off your balance if you only pay the minimum due. Also, the credit card company must get your permission before transactions can be made that are over your limit. This may be just the eye opener some people need. Unfortunately, this new reform may not be good for customers who pay on time and pay off the balance in full each month. Even if you are a good customer, you can be charged for inactivity. Other credit cards may start charging annual fees. I am so glad I do not have any credit cards.
Another topic was about the Public Service Announcement commercials from Fatherhood.org and President Obama’s involvement with it. I loves these commercials and put up a few of the videos a few weeks ago. They make me smile each and every time I see them. The ladies on The View talked a little about whether they were geared towards fathers of color. I don’t think so. That never crossed my mind. I see it as just talking about fathers in general. I know a lot of great fathers, one being my husband
Have you seen any of the commercials? This one is my favorite:
