Home Security Issues

With crime on the rise, as usual, it can be a bit scary some times being single and living alone. The economy being such a total screw up, people are turning to crime in order to meet their monthly billing deadlines. My mother has been after me for some time to check into checking some type of security system for my place. As for me I’d like to get a big dog to keep me safe, but alas I’m really set up to take care of a big dog at this point and time in my life. I all ready own a gun, and I know how to use it, but in all reality a security system does make better sense. I just hate it when my mother is right!!!!!

I’ve been doing a bit of research online lately and have found that adt alarm systems seems to have the best value for my money. They have been around and in business for over 130 years and I sure see a lot of their adt security system signs in people’s front yards these days, so they must have an Indianapolis ADT office close by. They must be doing something right. I’ve found that their All-Inclusive Monitoring Bundle would suite my needs, so I’ve submitted my contact information on their web site and am a waiting a call from one of their representatives in order to discuss with them some of the details before signing on the dotted line. I really don’t need anything fancy, but I do some sort of peace of mind, ya know what I mean?

Carpet Cleaning and More

My house was an absolute mess, a complete disaster last spring. I couldn’t take it anymore after my daughters friend came to stay with us for a weekend, and had made a comment to my daughter about how much of a wreck our house looked. It hit me that it was time to give my home a deep cleaning. So I scurried around a few local store for cleaning products to use around the house, took them home and started my cleaning spree.

My daughter even pitched in, and we had gotten a ton done. It just didn’t seem to be enough, the air in our home smelt a bit musty and the carpets still had stains on them from spills and accidents from years prior. I spent a night to myself in the house one night, while my daughter went to stay with a friend, and did some searching n the net for any good deals I could come by to have my carpet cleaned, deep cleaned. I came across a site that offers carpet cleaning for a great price that I couldn’t say no to.

When the carpet was done, I invited old friends and relatives over to enjoy a nice afternoon gathering n our newly felt home. We got so many compliments about how nice our home looked and smelled. I owe to carpet cleaning holly springs nc, I couldn’t have done a better job myself, they really made the difference.

Panton Chairs

After I wrote my last post that was suggesting the use of the now popular Panton Chairs – I started thinking that I should take a look at what types of Panton Chairs and other furniture  are available today. I found some wonderful websites and gained a good amount of knowledge about this space aged look type of chair. I would love to try one out and see how comfortable they are. I love the look, but with furniture I must insist on sitting on it, if that is what it was intended to be used for!

These are so abstract and the colors (and believe me there are plenty of other colors available as well) are so brilliant. They just seem to cheer me up. Check out and tell me what you think about these chairs and/or any of the other wonder products that they have there that have me so excited.

Toddler Room: Panton Chair, Toys and More

Do you have a kid who is starting to learn how to play games? Do you plan on building a playroom just for him to enjoy? Are you having problems on what to place inside this room once it is finished? If your answer to all these questions is a resounding yes, then you should continue reading.

In any type of room, proper furniture and fixtures should be placed to add life and beauty to the room. The same is the case when developing a toddler’s room for your child or children. Here are some of the objects which should be present inside the room:

  • Toys – These things should always be present inside the playroom. Aside from the fact that they are the primary entertainment of your kids, they also keep them busy while you are doing the dishes or ironing the clothes. However, you have to make sure that you only place those toys which have been certified safe for children.
  • Coloring materials – According to research, there are two main activities which children do inside a playroom – play or color. Once they get tired of playing, they will look for another activity that looks fun but does not require as much energy as playing does.
  • Books – If your child has already reached five or six years old, it would greatly help him if you would include some educational books to entertain him. Make sure to spend some quality time with him every once in a while.
  • Panton chair – A room would not be complete without a decent and quality piece of furniture that your kids can sit on. This particular chair is not only safe, but also comes in different colors.
  • Mat – A playing mat or foam is vital in any playroom. If possible, it should cover the entire floor area of the room to keep your kids away from injuries due to excessive playing.
  • Air conditioner – Of course, you would want your child to feel comfortable whenever he goes to the playroom. If this is not possible, two electric fans would do.
  • Miniature playground – This is definitely not a requirement, but if you can afford it, then make sure you provide it. You may place a small seesaw, swing, and slide inside the room to keep your child and his friends busy.

These are just some of the objects, things and pieces of furniture which you should include inside your child’s playroom the moment it is finished. Among all these factors, the Panton chair may be one of the most crucial. Getting a sturdy and stable chair is very important to avoid accidents and other untoward incidents.

This specific chair design has been developed several decades ago, yet it has still managed to become popular in this time and age. Sporting a future and space theme, the Panton chair is a chair that will definitely get the attention of kids. And because it has a unibody design, you would not need to worry about creaking parts and features which get damaged easily.

Flat Panel Stands

Hubby and I had recently gotten married and have finally moved into a home we can call our own. We have all of the furniture, pictures and décor up, but are lacking on flat panel stands for our new TV’s we have accumulated over the last couple years together, and a wall mount for my daughter’s TV. A few family members have offered to give us a table or something nice to put them on, but we want to buy a new mount and stands.

I searched throughout all the stores around town to compare prices but didn’t find anything that fits our taste or our budget. I came to the conclusion that I might be able to find something I’m looking for a little easier online. I took a night to search around the net and it didn’t take me long to find some awesome deals for some outstanding stands and mounts for our TV’s at a unbelievably great price.

I ordered 2 flat panel stands and one wall mount, and shipping was absolutely free! When they arrived at our home, we couldn’t have been any happier to set them up and finally put our TV’s to good use. We are all very thrilled to have home completely done up and ready for us to spend a great deal of time together in and enjoy all the years ahead.

Custom Built Homes In Florida

Found an interesting article about mobile manufactured homes. Some people call them trailers. So I think you would probably want to call this futuristic manufactured home a “Jetson’s Trailer.” The home is manufactured and sells for much less than a stick built home. It has a few options, but the main design is for the home to be easily assembled on a prepared level home site and provides the basic functional rooms that a modern family or retired couple might need with a lot of modern touches and energy efficiency built-in.

If I were to have my dream house I would turn to a Fl Home Builder since there isn’t any other place that I would want to live out my life at. There are many ideas that I have been entertaining about the way I would want my dream house to be set up and with what appliances that it makes my head spin just thinking about them all.  I swear I don’t see how people are able to make the thousands of decisions that come along with the building of their custom-house.

I just know that I want a fireplace, the washer and dryer need to be on the main floor. The kitchen must be easily accessible to the bringing in of the inevitable groceries and other purchases. And my refrigerator needs to have a see-through door and have an ice maker. Those are just a couple of ideas that I’ve been thinking about, not that I ever plan on having enough money to build my own custom home, but stranger things have been known to happen, right?

 

 

Hardwood Flooring Options For Kitchen and Front Room

Since I’ve been doing an awful lot of self-re-evaluation while upgrading my home and living conditions. I’ve been giving thought to possibly just ripping up the entire floor in the kitchen as well as the front room, so I’m not sure if it’s because I hate the stupid floors, or because I just want to change something. Not that it matters much. I was thinking along the lines of a type of Merengue Rustic Maple for the main front room and maybe a Surreal Washed Maple style floor for the kitchen.

Once I found the right company, carpetwiseflooringamerica” and saw the quality of their product and it’s installation, which is all guaranteed, I was convinced that this was where I’m going to get what I need! After seeing all the cool styles of wood flooring, I really liked the tone and color of the Hardwood Floors that I’ve selected. I’ve got some time still, so I’ll have it figured out soon enough to be sure. I may even put in a bigger bar, maybe incorporate into the hot tub area somehow. Hm, better stick to concentrating on the floors for now, otherwise I may wind up making a mess of things as well as getting a bit over my head.

Love Me Some Kitchenaid

Not very often do I get what I call “good mail” since the majority of mail that finds its way into my mailbox is a bill or advertisement, neither of which do I enjoy receiving and dealing with. It used to be that once in a while a card or a letter could be found waiting for me to open, those days are long gone compliments of the Internet. LOL! The days are pretty much gone that I would get dozens of Christmas cards in the mail. I think last year I received a total of 3, with the majority of my Season’s Greetings being said and done online.

But today I got a piece of “good mail” not only was it a Christmas card but it had a healthy VISA gift card included in it that just about floored me when I opened the card and saw the amount clearly written on it. My Great Aunt Pearl, bless her heart, was feeling very generous this year and it didn’t take me long to figure out what I want to do with this particular blessing. Check out this sweet looking kitchenaid artisan mixer – candy apple 90th anniversary edition with free glass bowl that I think I will order when the weekend rolls around again.

I plan on spending a good part of this up and coming weekend online. While I’m at it I think I’ll be keeping my eyes open for the parts for the saucepan racks that I need to get that all installed and out of the way as well as trying to find a great deal on some lion sabatier stainless steel knives to complete the set that I’ve been working on for several years now. My kitchen is always a work in progress and I’m always wanting/needing something or another, but I do spend a good amount of time in there so my kitchen is important to me.

Thanks Aunt Pearl, you’re a doll!

Barcoding Equipment

A few neighbors and I have been discussing the problem of items being taken from our yards lately. This past year it has been happening more and more to most folks up and down our street. This is a serious issue right now I am seriously thinking of placing security cameras around my place and see if they seem to do any good or not. I know of a company by the name of Barcode Discount that I have had experience with in the past that deals with a lot of barcode items like barcode software and equipment, from a place that I worked at several years ago.

After leaving that company I looked to see if they had put up a web site as of yet and was pleased to see that they do and that not only do they sell barcoding equipment they also have a nice line of security cameras that I plan on checking out to see if they would be suitable for my needs here at the house. They were nice people at Barcode Discount and I wouldn’t mind giving them some of my personal business.

 

Boot Style Slippers

I have never asked for slippers as a Christmas gift in my whole life, but this year they are on the top of my wish list. Since removing the wall-to-wall carpet from the entire main level of my home, I have noticed that the bare wood is extremely cold and I’m tired of wearing just my socks, as they tend to get dirty quickly and that is just gross and wrong.  I have a pair of slippers but they are so old that a nice new warm pair of the boot style slippers would make me a very happy camper this year. I wonder if they slippers with little heaters on them, that would be awesome. I’ve seen them with flash lights on them before, pretty crazy if you ask me. But what ever works for you!

If I don’t get a pair on Christmas morning I’m sure I’ll be receiving a few gift cards here and there that I will be able to use to buy some. The after Christmas sales are a great time to get things at great discount prices. It’s my favorite time of the year to shop. Too bad I’m usually way too broke, but those wonderful gift cards do come in handy after Christmas.
