Since getting the internet do you find yourself looking up more and more reviews before making that purchase? I know I have since I want to get the most out of my money. For example for Christmas we wanted to get Katie one of those art easels and the first place I went was amazon.com so I could read people’s reviews to see what was good and what wasn’t. I’m glad I did too because I was just going to go with the Melissa and Doug one as I know they are a good name, but found out by the reviews that they now are making them somewhere else and the quality has gone down his quite a bit. (For example the holes didn’t line up for the one person) So we ended up going with a different one that might of cost a little bit more, but had very high reviews.

Then what else I find interesting is reading things like accutane reviews.  Thankfully I don’t have to take any of that medication, but reading the reviews and especially what the side effects are you sure would know what to take and what to stay far away from. 

Because reading online what the side effects are from the sleeping pills Paul has been taking I’ve been able to start weaning him off of them.  Did you know that his ever so precious Ambien causes 3 different kinds of cancer in animals and all the other sleeping pills seem to cause some kind of cancer?!?  After watching our friends wife, our neighbor (who they both are our ages) and our friends son all battling cancer right now it sure made him think twice about popping another pill.  Since then he has been trying to do other things to get a good nights sleep (like taking the hot shower when he gets home from work).  So far it seems to be working a little bit.  He still wakes up tired, but he did on the sleeping pills too.  Of course this week he has only been working till 11pm instead of 1am, so maybe that has something to do with it too?   Who knows.. all I know is I’m glad he isn’t popping those pills anymore!
