When my husband got back from his recent backpacking trip, he failed to tell me about a little stumble he had. My friend mentioned it to me, more as a fall with my husband being sore a couple of days afterward. He on the other hand just said he kind of stumbled and yes he was sore. Oh, but his watch was really banged up! So since his birthday is coming up, I guess it might be a good time for a new watch.

If money were no object I would love to get him something sturdy and fun too. Then I came across some really great Citizen Eco drive Mens watches. I really liked the Blue Angels one. But then the Eco-Drive Aqualand with Dive Log 20th Anniversary Edition Orange Strap caught my eye. Even though we have not been diving at all this summer (we have at least talked about it!) this very cool timepiece could be the perfect birthday present for him! I love the orange strap and the 20-dive log. It measures the depth and time of your dive and is good for a depth of 200m. This looks like the perfect watch for divers!

Folks around here are getting ready for their kids to go back to school. Many private schools start next week with public schools starting the following week. As for me, I have not even started getting things ready for my daughter! My son has been unhappy with his school this past year. He was trying to get a transfer, which was denied. We looked at a private school, but at the price, we could send him to college. Of course I wish he would come back to being homeschooled, in a different manner of course. I have found some really good online school options. I am looking at one of those for my daughter as well. An acquaintance asked me yesterday when I will start school with my daughter. I told her since I am trying to get things situated with my son, I am holding off a bit, but by the end of September for sure!
