Product Description



LOCKS ITSELF IN SO YOU WON'T GET LOCKED OUT!

Heavy Duty Door Stoppers by UberTuff-Highly Rated #ubertuffdoorstopper
Imagine yourself having your hands full of luggage, running dangerously late for a flight. You rush out of your house, then the unimaginable happens in the most untimely moment - the door slams shut right behind you. Even before you could recover from the initial shock, you realize that your plane tickets and travel documents are still inside your home.

You find yourself locked out, with your wife and kids already in your vehicle. They watch in horror and wait for what you will say next.

The easiest solution would have been to prepare way ahead of departure time. But we're just human and tend to wait till the last moment to get moving. The other easy solution would be door stoppers, yes your basic door stopper. Nothing fancy, but something like a workhorse of a door stop like UberTuff. It simply does its job without fanfare.
  • SECURES THE DOOR FIRMLY. UberTuff Door Stoppers hold the door open for you while your hands are full with luggage, groceries, or tools.

  • ALWAYS RELIABLE WITHOUT FAIL. This non slip stopper won't let the door hit you on your way out. Its pronounced top and bottom "teeth" help keep a firm grip of the floor and door.
  • NO BRAINER, EASY-TO-INSTALL. Simply slide the rubber door wedge between the door and the floor until it is snug. Does a superb job of locking itself in.
  • NON SKID DOOR STOPPER THAT WORKS ON ALL SURFACES & DOORS. Loves to work on most common household & office floor surfaces like hardwood, carpet, tile, concrete, and linoleum.
  • BUILT TO FIT AND MADE TO LAST. Bigger than most door stops available, it is perfect for door and floor gaps of about 1.5 inches. Made of non-marking rubber that's easy on your floor but sturdy enough to ensure years of good use.

Maia Sharp / Lovebirds
KPRI Private Listeners Concert

Hubby and I were thrilled to score a pair of tickets to the Maia Sharp KPRIFM  Private Listeners Concert*** above the impressive Vintana Wine + Dine in Escondido, California. Located on the Penthouse Level of the Lexus Centre of Escondido, Vintana offers a modern take on California Cuisine and picturesque views of the town and countryside; perfect for this outdoor performance.



The Lovebirds,  a dynamic and unique pop duo opened the show. I had never heard of this group before but found them immediately likable and very talented. The interesting side story is that these two ladies are in reality ex-love birds.

The Lovebirds are the winners of the 2014 Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk songwriting contest and as official showcase performers for 2015 Folk Alliance International. The LoveBirds are easy to Love! Look for other opportunities to experience the upbeat harmonious renderings from Veronica May and Lindsay White.




Headliner, Maia Sharp is a pop singer songwriter with a hint of jazz and folk that easily makes your feet tap and hips sway to her quaint melodies. Impressively, this artist has had her songs recorded by The Dixie Chicks, Bonnie Raitt, Trisha Yearwood, Keb’ Mo’, Cher, Edwin McCain, David Wilcox, Art Garfunkel, Paul Carrack, Lisa Loeb and many more.

Maia also produced Edwin McCain's last album Mercy Bound (429 Records) and most recently two songs for Art Garfunkel's retrospective double album The Singer (Sony). And through it all, Maia has continued to record her own albums. She has five solo releases and one collaborative project with Art Garfunkel and Buddy Mondlock that have all been critically acclaimed and enthusiastically embraced by press and radio.


This was my second KPRI Private Listener Maia Sharp concert.** She and her band (Linda Taylor) continue to amaze me. The passionate and emotionally honest songs about life and love stimulate my imagination and heart.

Maia’s long awaited new album, The Dash Between the Dates (eOne Records) will be available everywhere digital and physical albums are sold October 16, 2015! In the meantime, the album's first single, "Nothing But the Radio" is out now on iTunes.

The majority of the crowd really enjoyed the two groups. However, at the end of the delightful night of song, there were a handful of concert goers who morphed into inattentive yet loud and obnoxious roadblocks to concert enjoyment. 

Additionally, the Vintana staff breaking down the tables and carting off chairs before Maia Sharp’s finale was very distracting.  Nevertheless, this KPRI Private Listeners Concert was an excellent way to enjoy our Sunday Evening!

Tip: Try the Margherita from the Vintana Lanai Menu. It was a perfect blend of vine ripe tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, basil, pesto, and shaved Parmesan cheese and just large enough for the two of us.

**On March 13, 2013, Oma was introduced to artist Maia Sharp at the Apotheque Spa https://www.facebook.com/apothequespa in Oceanside. If you do not know Maia Sharp’s music – you must check her out. Oma bought two of her albums – Echo and Change the Ending. What a great experience – I was able to take a picture with Ms. Sharp and both she and her “band” - Linda Taylor signed my cd’s! Remember this awesome experience was free!

***Private Listener Concerts are local radio station, KPRI 102.1’s way of saying THANKS for spending time with KPRi. San Diego’s 102.1 KPRi is owned by two guys. That’s it. No big corporation, no Big Brother telling them what to do, nor what to play. Just two guys who love radio, Bob Hughes and Jonathan Schwartz who bought KPRi in 1996.

Set of 5 Soft Checkered Fun Colored Wide Headband #headbandset


One Size Fits Most

 

 Set of 5 Soft Checkered Fun Colored Wide Headband #headbandsetOma found these Checkered Headbands very comfortable and the easiest to use. They come in a variety of colors (plaid colors including red, pink, blue, black and brown)

These headbands are a great way to keep your hair out of your face. I keep one in Opa’s convertible, around the stick shifter. That way I can pop it on and control my hair when we spontaneously decide to put the top down on one of our rides. It is also perfect to wear while I soak in the hot tub.

Since they come in 5 separate bags; they would make great stocking-stuffers! (I know I am a bit early)

My only suggestion would be to make the cloth a bit wider to cover the back of my head a bit better.

Kansas Concert at Casino Pauma

By Stacey Kuhns


Writer /Photographer Stacey Kuhns
This week, "Oma Loves U!" is welcoming aboard new guest writer, Stacey Kuhns.  Ms. Kuhns will be offering local reviews and experiences, complete with photos and/or videos.
You might also be treated to a poem from time to time! Welcome Stacey.

Kansas Concert at Casino Pauma by Stacey Kuhns


I purchased tickets for a concert at Casino Pauma approximately four months ago. It was extremely easy to get good seats (I purchased the tickets the day they went on sale) and the ticket prices for Casino Pauma concerts are quite reasonable. Our tickets were $52 each. Other advertised venues were available for $35 and up.

There were also tickets available for purchase the same night as the concert or performance. The staff at the casino are friendly and welcoming.

On 09/11/15, my friend and I drove to Casino Pauma. We had never been there before; it is off Highway 76 on the Pauma Indian Reservation. Upon arrival, we drove down a welcoming entrance to the casino, which turned out to be very small. There are no rooms for overnight stays, just a casino, two restaurants, and a walk-up deli/pizza counter.

Upon entering the casino, you are assaulted with the smell of cigarettes. There is no lobby. You are directly entering the slot machine area. Attached to the back doors of the casino is a large tent with numerous folding chairs inside as well as large floor fans. As the temperatures outside ranged in the very high nineties, we were hoping this was not the concert venue.

We chose to eat at the buffet. The concert start time was 8:00 p.m. and we arrived at the buffet around 5:30 p.m. The buffet was deserted, but crowds began gathering around 6:30 p.m. and then there was a line to get in.

The buffet offers a decent variety of food at a cost of $12.95 per adult. The service is wonderful and our waitress was very attentive in refilling drinks and asking if we needed anything. The décor is nothing special although there is a large orange tree in the center of the seating area with padded seats around the base of it. (Was wondering how many times an orange has fallen on a customer).

The food at the buffet was bordering on horrible. 

 

Nothing tasted fresh. The best thing I had there was the salad bar. Fresh lettuce and lots of toppings. My friend tried many of the meat and fish selections. Neither of us was impressed. I wound up taking a bite of everything and not eating any more of it. The desserts were just as tasteless and inedible as the entree selections. The one thing that was hot and somewhat decent was the pasta station where they will add sauce and toppings into your selection of pasta and cook it on a little stove.

After dinner, we headed outside to wander around. We were told the concert was indeed in the outdoor tent as the casino does not yet have any sort of theater. Once outside the tent, we discovered the line was inside the casino. We got in line. The line ran through the slot machines, mostly penny machines, as they want you to play while you wait. This is also the smoking section which was unpleasant.

Tip: Another thing to be aware of is the women's restroom in the concert line area only has two stalls (the line after the concert was ridiculous). The men's restroom in that area has one urinal and one stall, so you are better off using the restrooms in the entrance area.


Something different than other concert venues was the fact that they did not search bags and they were fine with cameras and recording equipment! The seats are easily marked so we were able to seat ourselves without a problem. The folding chairs are very close together so you are cozy with your neighbor; not comfortable at all.

The venue is small so most seats offer a good view of the stage but everyone is on the same level so if you have a tall person in front of you, it can block your view quite a bit. It was very hot inside the tent, but once the concert started, it was easy to forget about the discomfort. Kansas was amazing. They sound exactly the same as they did in the seventies.

Although the food and outdoor seating area was a disappointment, we were happy we had gone. It was a fantastic show.

Stylish Underwear, Socks and Bedding Review + Giveaway #WeareverUS


Maintain Your Dignity with Style and Comfort

 

Leak-Control Underwear for Men and Women of All Ages

Wearever brand incontinence products are designed with you in mind. They understand that dealing with incontinence can be difficult at times, and that is why Wearever makes every effort to ensure that their products remain affordable, comfortable, and healthy for your use.

Oma found the “Wearever Women’s Lovely Lace Trim Incontinence Panties” both effective yet fashionable. They will last for over 200 washes and therefore at under twenty dollars, they are an economical alternative to disposable incontinence products. Oma received a black Nylon & Lace Brief to try and review. They are very soft and the silky nylon trim is very feminine.  Oma loves that these panties look and feel just like regular brief.

Oma's favorite product is the Wearever Bed Pads.  It is made with absorbent materials and has a waterproof liner.  I use the pad on our bed when changing our grandson's diapers.  They keep everything dry and clean.  Should an accident happen, Oma just tossed the pad into the washer for an easy yet complete clean up!


Last but not least, Oma found the Wearever Socks both well-made and comfortable. The only negative was that they did not stay-up quite as well as Oma expected. However, the socks were perfect under Oma’s jeans and did not bind nor cause skin irritation. The best part of this product is that the socks did not leave any marks or "dents" on Oma’s legs; even after wearing them all day.
