Mom's Gadgets

Almost everyone of us has an IPOD or MP3 player these days and if you don’t have that you at least use your laptop or desktop to listen to your favorite tunes or maybe a podcast or two each week. Do you have trouble with the earbuds that came along with your Ipod or MP3 player or maybe you just wish you had some that were a little more comfortable or more “you”. That’s why I love these ChicBuds , not only are they comfty, but they also have that extra “bling” that makes them fashionable too and helps me to tell the difference between my earbuds and my hubby’s who uses his at the gym and therefore they are always a bit sweaty, yuck!

I’ll take these cute, wait Chic buds, any day over those. Wouldn’t you? These Chic earbuds come in black, white, and with either clear or pink Swarovski Crystals, plus they are retractable keeping you from dealing with a tangled cord.

I was late getting in on the Ipod craze. I couldn’t bring myself to part with the money necessary to buy it.  Finally, I did and I was glad that I did.  Now, I can never seem to find it when I want it.  Why, because someone keeps stealing it.  Not literally, its just my husband or my son borrowing it as they say, but it sure is getting used by others more than me!

Ipods are a great gadget.  Holding tons of music, podcast and other audios, videos even on some models and mine hold pictures too.  All of this in a tiny hand held, super lightweight gadget.  The neat accessories such as sports bands you can strap on your arm make it easy to take this little gadget with you virtually anywhere.  Plus you can also get the home stereo type accessories and utilize this great gadget as your primary music source.

One of the best things about an Ipod to me is the ability to download songs one by one from Itunes.com that I want to hear not having to purchase a whole CD like in the old days just to get the one song I was craving hearing.  That’s a money saver in itself, and has made this purchase worth it in my book.
