#Giveaway:The Vampire Diaries: The Complete Sixth Season Or The Originals: The Complete Second Season #TVD & #TheOriginals

 

Are you a Vampire Diaries fan? Do you love everything about them? Well, look here!
About The Vampire Diaries The Complete Sixth Season
The Vampire Diaries continues its sixth season with more delicious drama to sink your teeth into. In season five, after a passionate summer with Damon, Elena headed to Whitmore College with Caroline, not knowing Bonnie sacrificed her life for Jeremy’s. Meanwhile, Stefan and Caroline’s friendship deepened as they stood up to the Travelers, a nomadic witch tribe driven to strip Mystic Falls of magic and cast out its supernatural residents. In the shocking season finale, Damon, fearing he would lose his loved ones on the crumbling Other Side, made a huge sacrifice to bring them all back — with catastrophic and heartbreaking results. Season six follows the characters’ journey back to each other as they explore the duality of good versus evil inside themselves. Matt Davis reprises his role as Alaric Saltzman, recently returned from The Other Side. Plus, the season will make you misty-eyed as the departure of a major character will turn lives upside down and leave us asking what happened to Mystic Falls.

About The Originals The Complete Second Season 


As Original vampire-werewolf hybrid Klaus Mikaelson returned to the vibrant, supernaturally charged city of New Orleans in season one, he was stunned to learn — along with his siblings Elijah and Rebekah — that Hayley, a werewolf, was pregnant with his child, and his vampire protégé, Marcel, whom the Original siblings had thought long dead, was ruling the French Quarter. Soon, a bloody war escalated between vampires and witches — the stakes raised by powerful teenage witch Davina and by Klaus’s bond with Cami, a student with a painful past — and a ruthless pack of wolves seized the opportunity to stage a violent coup. Now, in season two, a new status quo must be adjusted to, as the newly empowered werewolves control the city. Klaus struggles with weaknesses as Elijah desperately tries to save Hayley — now a hybrid — from a vicious spiral of self-destruction. Meanwhile, with the re-emergence of several Mikaelsons, “family is power” takes on new meaning.

Monday's Music Moves Me...5th Anniversary Celebration Continues with a Freebie Music Week #MondaysMusicMovesMe #giveaway #music


Hey there! It is another Monday and we are still celebrating our 5th Anniversary here at Monday's Music Moves me. We have two big giveaways going on with 5 winners-one for each year. Cool ey?

You can find one of the giveaways here on my blog or on Colette's blog. The other one can be found on Xmas Dolly and Stacy's blogs. Just in case you are wondering, the giveaway here is for a large Kindle cover & Michael Phillip Cash's book, "The Flip". Also there is 30 days of free advert on my blog for a lucky winner too. Good luck now let's dance!

This week is a freebie week. My hubby started recollecting record albums a couple of years ago and we have been listening to some of the "new" ones he just purchased this past week. (No, I am not old!)
So, I thought I would share some of his albums with you.

Link up music here. Giveaway is below.



First up: One of my favorite duos: The Carpenters. You do know they were brother and sister, right?



Next up: This duo I loved ever since I was a young kid: The Captain and Tennille. Too bad that they did NOT stay together after so many years. 




Next: Kenny Rogers has always been a favorite even before he got into acting. This particular album was of his greatest hits. I like all of the songs on the album but this is the one I am sharing today.



Let's see: There are truly so many albums to choose from but I am going to finish up this week with Linda Ronstadt. This song was written by Hank Williams.




Hope the music was good for you this week. Don't forget to enter the giveaways.

#Review:Compact Wall Surge Protector Dual USB Ports #SurgeProtector



If you are anything like me, you have a ton of cords that need plugged in and probably not enough space to plug them in. Furthermore, you probably have electronic devices to plug in to charge as well. Here we also have massive storms that could knock out the electric at any time. This all adds up to one big problem. I received the solution to it all.

The Compact Wall Surge Protector is just what I needed! This sweet little item plugs into one of your plugs in the wall but that one piece of space adds up to six outlets just for me. In addition, it has two dual USB ports right at the end that allows for those electronic devices to be plugged in and charging but not take up more of the outlets. The nice thing is you can screw it into the wall if you want to or leave it as is. Win!


There are two lights at the top to tell you if the plug has been grounded and to tell you if your cords have been protected. Around here, that is a necessary thing or all of electronics are done for. I really like this product and I do recommend it.

Disclosure: I received the item for free in exchange for my open and honest opinion. The views here are 100% my own and may differ from yours. ~Naila Moon

#Review: LabelDaddy.com Labels @labeldaddy @usfg



My Granddaughter started Kindergarten this week which means she had a load of school supplies, book bags, folders, and lunch box to take to school. A ton of other kids have their stuff too for school which could be easily mixed up with my Granddaughters. I found a solution for her which is making personalized labels from LabelDaddy.com

My Granddaughter loved picking out the label she wanted, which happened to be Minnie Mouse as a cheerleader. This did not surprise me since she wants to be a cheerleader. However there were many to choose from: Disney, Marvel, MLB, NBA, and NHL Seriously, something for everyone.



We added her name and her Momma's cell number and done! We waited a very short time and received them all packaged nicely. My Granddaughter was excited to start posting the labels on her backpack and folder. There is no doubt that these things belong to her and if her items get lost, the cell number can get them back to her in a jiffy.

I personally loved the color hues and the largeness of the labels. The labels come in mini sizes too so you can put put them on things like clothes or on shoes. If you can think it, you can pretty much make a personalized label just for you.

Check them out!

Beard Oil with Argan & Jojoba #GarvonBeardOil





My son has been sporting a beard for a few years now. He has told me that he is trying to grow it out so that he can braid it on the ends. I think he is a bit crazy but what do I really know, I am only his Mother.


The problem he has been having is that most of the time, his beard looks like the photo above. It is usually scraggly and just out of control. He also generally has flaky skin so this also sometimes shows up in his beard and annoys the heck out of him.

So, then I get the chance to review a new product on Amazon for some Beard Oil with Argan and Jojoba.  I asked my son if he would try it out and he jumped at the chance. He took a two week test run and this is what the results were.


Can you see the difference? His beard is smoother and more in control. It looks in much better shape than the original photo.  Look at the ingredient the company puts in the bottle, all natural.



My son had a thought or two about this product. 

"The beard oil helped make my beard not flaky with use and made it smooth once the oil was gone.  I would be willing to buy more of this product in the future for my beard health. "~J.

I'd say that is not a bad endorsement. This is what the company has to say about their own product:

- It comes in a 1 oz glass bottle with dropper and contain the natural goodness of Argan and Jojoba Oil.
- Meticulously produced in the USA this beard oil can help you grow a silky, shiny beard.
- As the oils help soothe, protect and enrich your beard they can also help reduce beard itchiness.
- You can manage unruly beards, grow your beard longer and it fights split ends!- Suitable for all beard lengths Garvon beard oil is a versatile mix of natural oils and can even be used on hair.
- This version comes unscented - so no over-powering smells! Its long-lasting and safe to use.

Overall, I have to give this a thumbs up. If my son is liking the product for his beard, then that is good enough for me. His beard looks better and that makes me one happy Momma.

Disclosure: I received this product for free for my open and honest opinion or that of my family. The view expressed here are 100% our own and may not reflect yours. ~Naila Moon
