In a funk

I haven’t been doing so well for the past couple of days. I’m not too sure about what’s come over me, but I know for certain that if I can get out of this funk I’d be much better off. I’m sending Hubby to the store later, my new subscriptions have come out and I’d like to get my hands on this months installment of my favorite magazines. I’m sure I should just consider purchasing them and having them mailed to the house but I think it’s easier to just pick up everything at once from the market, that’s just…more»

UK Credit

If you live in the UK, I’ve found a website that may be of some service to you. If you’ve been looking into credit cards recently, I want to hope that you’ve come across mint.co.uk. They offer a low interest credit card with a competitive introductory offer and a host of benefits as well. A quick break down (taken from the website) is as follows: * 0% on balance transfers until 1 November 2008 (2.5% balance transfer fee) * 0% on purchases until 1 April 2008 * 0% bonus offer until 1 July 2009 on balances transferred during January 2009…more»

Cliffside Malibu

Everyone knows that drug addiction is a major problem.  Living in the US, you only hear about the problems Nation wide, but in reality it’s a world-wide problem and these days it’s a part of almost every household.  I’m not saying that you’re 14 year old is smoking cocaine, but with the rise of addictive medication in house holds over the course of the last 20 years, I’m sure there’s something in your medicine cabinet that is magically starting to disapear, and you don’t quite understand why.  We’re living in a new age, it’s not about illegal narcotics – prescription…more»

Cleaning Out

In preparation for the move, Sean and I have both been going through a lot of our things to lighten the load.  I personally think it’s easier to get rid of all of the unwanted items now, so they don’t take up room on the uhaul and need to “dealt with” while we’re in the process of unpacking everything.  As of right now, the office is going to be the bulk of our efforts because everything is housed in there, whether we realize it or not.  You don’t realize how much stuff you have until you start going through it…more»

The Season’s Started!

The football season has started, and it’s unfortunate that my Giants aren’t doing very well so far this year. They’re only two games into the season, maybe things will start changing around. If they happen to completely suck this year? Oh well, at least I’ll have fun yelling at the screen. I did some poking around for football related articles to catch up on what’s going on with the other teams in the league, as well as college football because I grew up on that as well. I found out today about a New Football Helmet that has Schutt ION…more»

Switching to Joomla

For quite some time now I was considering switching over to Joomla. For those of you who don’t know what the program does, it’s a free CMS program that does absolutely everything you could need a program to do. It’s used all over the world to power everything from a simple personal homepage to a more complex corporate based website. It can be used to easily manage every aspect of your website, from adding content and images to updating a product catalog or taking online reservations. There are thousands of plugins available for this program to give you everything you…more»

Rejection

We were rejected for a joint-personal loan based on the fact that we had nothing to put up as collateral.  I figured this was going to happen considering it’s a high risk loan and while we do have a fairly decent income, he hasn’t earned anything as a freelancer for the two years that many lenders require.  This is great to know for next year, but it certainly doesn’t help us out right now.  We added up the numbers tonight, it’s going to cost us around $3,000 to cover everything from the cost of moving, to first and last months…more»

Not moving fast enough…

Instead of taking out a mortgage, we put a stop on that and are now working on just a personal loan to cover the moving fees to the new place. We’re almost certain that the place inside of his brothers complex is the one that we’re going to be looking into, but we’ve kept the other options open as well. The one place that was looking the best, however, really won’t work out very well for us at all. A lot of the apartments in the towns we were considering are now changing over to Section 8, and I personally…more»

Awaiting Approval

For the past few days we’ve patiently been waiting to hear from HSBC in regards to our loan. We couldn’t get the house, we didn’t put the bid in on time and it’s off the market. We found a few other options, a few of which were rentals. I’ve never been to Ohio so I can’t say that I’m going to like it there, so I believe us not getting this house was just the sign telling us to rent first. We’ve looked into a few options, his brother has a place available in his complex. We couldn’t find it…more»

HTP Internet Marketing & SEO

Today I came across an Internet Marketing and SEO company that seems to be pretty good at what they can offer you. They offer a few different options. They’re an Advertising Company where you can Add Your Link or even Buy Text Links. Typically when I see SEO companies claiming to get you higher rankings on Google and just more hits in general, they typically have very low to non-existent ranking scores. As of right now this company is a PR6 which isn’t bad considering I’ve been working extremely hard just to maintain the PR5 that I have here. I’d…more»
