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»

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 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»

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»

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»

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»

For a while now I’ve been considering a Virtual office setup in order to get rid of my cell phone. Since I work in-house, it’s really the only form of outside communication I can have at the moment. I also figure that it’ll help me down the road after Hubby and I move to Ohio. I can keep the same phone number because all you really need is a broadband connection, and I did some poking around many different companies and I have to say that iPBX is looking to be a pretty decent service at this point. I think…more»

For many years my Grandmother battled many issues with her legs. Primarily her ankles. When she was growing up there weren’t any control-top kind of sneakers and based on this lack of support, she got to the point where her foot was basically dangling off her ankle because that particular bone was on the floor in place of her natural arch. This means nothing but pain for anyone who has to deal with it, and even now all they can offer you is orthodics. She went in for surgery to try to have the bones reset to where they were…more»

I was putzing around on PPP and I came across a listing for a self improvement test. Being interested in almost everything I read, I found myself loading the link and taking the test. There were a few basic questions, mainly from the first person and second person point of views. How do I perceive myself, how do others perceive me. The questions you would typically see on a test like this. I didn’t have to write any big answers down, it was filling out bubbles from the 1-7 range. 1 is a strong disagree, 4 is a neutral and…more»

Hubby and I are really beginning to push for the loan, so much so that he’s now working on taking one out in his name in hopes to bring in some more money so we can get the hell out of here. We’re just finished with this house, and having our own is the only real option right now. He’s been looking into everywhere from Salisbury, MD to North Lima, OH. We’ve even considered Vermont and Pennsylvania. Either way there’s an estimated $150,000 to spend and we have absolutely no idea where it’s going. Our rush is based on the…more»
