Health and Beauty Issues

Today’s technologies are simply brilliant these days, with state of the art facilities and products available while all becoming more affordable we now have the ability to do just about anything to anyone as we please. The medical field is a fascinating field, one that is growing faster then most of us can keep up with. I enjoying the various television shows that are centered around the medical field. House has become one of my favorite shows as of late, an interesting program, as well as entertaining, to say the least.

Dermatology has a lot to offer these days, liposuction in chicago is being done at Lakeview Dermatology, in the Park Ridge area, which is a leading dermatology clinic that specializes in laser acne treatments, liposuction, hair removal treatments, Restylane treatments and many other skin care treatments as well, which are making numerous people so much happier with their bodies and their health. We are a population of people overly concerned with our appearance so this is a great field to be in these days.

Not only are we concerned with looks for appearance sake, but for numerous health reasons as well. I know several people that have turned to these type of procedures, all of them are very happy with their results, no law suites are pending and everyone is happy with their new looks and their longer life expectancies.

Outdoor Hot Tubs and Their Covers

What I wouldn’t give to have a nice hot tub to soak in after a long hard day around here. It would be great to have one set up right out on the side porch, a perfect place for a good sized hot tub, outside, but not too far from the side door. Of course if I ever get enough cash together to purchase one I would need to then search for good quality hottub covers, since it would be out in the weather all year, it would need to be made to last and plenty durable, like the ones advertised at Hottubs2buy.co.uk.

Maybe this is something that I need to look at when I get next year’s tax refund check.

Security Equipment

Once again my oldest sister is sticking her nose in my business. This time around she is concerned with all of the home break ins that are on the increase, due to the economy and people becoming more and more desperate for money. She has been doing a lot of research on the computer and is trying to convince me to purchase one of the new security systems that people are turning to in order to protect their property and their loved ones. I’ve told her that I don’t need a fancy security video camera around here, I have plenty of weapons here that will do the trick just fine.

My Dad left me a large weapons collection, when he passed and I am a very good shot, always have been. I keep all of the guns cleaned and ready for action. I target practice almost on a weekly basis as well, so I’m really not that concerned about it all. And it isn’t like I leave the place very often, plus all of the dogs would scare anyone from getting too close to anything around here.

She sent me the link to ADT Security last night, she particularly wanted me to read about the backup battery and equipment guide so that I would know as much as possible about what they have to offer. They have a good product to offer and I don’t have a problem with them, it’s just that I’m already up to my neck in debt and I don’t need to take on anything else at this time. A lot depends on this year’s harvest. With so little rain this year, it could possibly turn out real bad and I’m not looking forward to that.

Batteries

I seem to constantly needing to replace batteries in something around here. I have a box that I keep all types of batteries and a battery tester in, I try to keep it full as much as possible. But it always seems to happen that I reach in there for a particular type of battery only to find that there is only one or two (and of course I am in need of three or four) or I don’t have any at all. I spend a lot of money on batteries.

batteries galore

A Free Bankruptcy Consultation

Since my sister’s husband was in a car accident several years ago and the whole mess has left them penniless, since he can’t work, as well as all of the medical bills that have been piling up, she is seriously considering a bankruptcy free consultation to see if that is the route that would be in their best interest.

No one wants to declare bankruptcy, it isn’t a fun experience and it doesn’t come cheap, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Bankruptcy laws have changed since I went through that whole process, but I can honestly say that when it is all over and done with, it is worth all the time, effort and money.

I hope that this free consultation gives her the information and the encouragement she needs to get things over and done with. In the meantime they will keep trudging along and keep screening their house phone calls from all the creditors that are after them right now.

Out With The Old, In With The New

I’m finding that there are many things around this old place that are in need of repair or replacement, it seems to be a never ending battle. Last night I went to turn the Lamps on in the bedroom beside the bed and one of them wouldn’t turn on. The first thought was that it just needed a new bulb, so I tried that and that didn’t do the trick, sigh……

These old vintage Desk Lamps have been in the house since I can remember and I know that my mother really cherished them, but I’m afraid that they are in need of being replaced at this time. I really don’t want to go out and run from store to store in order to find a new set of lamps, so this weekend I’ll be searching online to find some to purchase. A much easier task that having to run into town.

Since it would make sense to buy one of the new Low Voltage Halogen Lamps, in an effort to reduce the energy being used thus reducing my electric bill each month, I’ll be looking for a pair of these to use. This isn’t something that I planned on doing over the weekend but I do need light in the bedroom and there isn’t an over head light in there to use.

Wood Crafting

Since I spend so much time here at the family homestead, I have consented to help my sister with some of her wood craft projects. There are plenty of machines and tools here all ready that our father used so it just makes sense to make some use out of them with this wood crafter wood crafts that sis is finding herself getting into these past couple of months.

I have a little bit of experience with most of the equipment, tools and machines that are every where I turn in most of the out buildings. But this is a good time for me to see which ones are still working, which ones need some maintenance, and which ones did to go and free up some of the clutter around here.

The Learning Of Using The Right Tools For Marketing

It is surprising to find that there are so many businesses that aren’t utilizing all that the Internet and other modern technologies that are so important to check out and use. I kn ow that the computer can be intimidating, especially with so many senior citizens that didn’t grow up with anything like what we use almost on a daily basis for work and personal use.

It really took a lot of effort for me to get my Aunt Dottie to understand Mobile Advertising and Mobile Marketing for her small business that she and my uncle are trying so hard to hold onto since the economy went all crazy on us over 6 years ago. It is a mail and packaging store that they have put all their time and energy into since finding themselves retired and nothing to do to keep them busy and hopefully help with their finances that is most of the time a concern when someone retires and doesn’t have close friends or family to help along the way.

Once she took a course at their local community center that offers senior citizens classes on how to understand and to use their computers, she was like a kid in a candy store! Right now they are working on utilizing Mobile Coupons that they hope will help generate some business to tide them over until the Christmas holidays start. That is their busiest time of the year with so many people mailing gifts all over the world. They even have to hire someone part-time for the month of December it gets so busy. It’s just too bad that they only have one good month out of the year while the rest of the months they find themselves desperate for business.

Jeep

I’ve decided on a few things that I want to purchase when I finally get my tax refund check that has been tied up for way too long,  in the next week or two. It has been a while since I’ve had a few bucks in my pocket and I feel like a kid in a candy store with so many choices out there that I’d love to be able to afford.

It has been a good project to tackle at night when I’m done with all the farm work and I sit down in front of the computer. Most nights I’m too tired to concentrate on much of anything, so it’s kinda cool to be able to just mindlessly surf the Internet and see what is out there. There are things that I want and of course several things that I need for around the place so I’ve been trying to balance it out some.

One thing that I’ve definitely put on top of the list is a nice new set of wheels for my Jeep. I had such high expectations for my Jeep when I first purchased it 2 years ago and I haven’t been able to do as much with it as I had planned, but for now a sweet looking set of wheels will have to do. CARID.com has some great accessories that I’ve spent some time gazing out. Good stuff going on there folks and they accept PayPal.

Tutoring Offered Online

My God, where was the Internet and all that it has to offer when I was in school? A co worker of mine was telling me that her son was receiving tutoring via the Internet and I thought that that was pretty cool. I could have used some Math homework help back in my schooling years, especially middle and high school. Numbers and I have never gotten along, lord knows what I would do with out my handy dandy calculator.

I spent a good amount of time with the little old lady down the street that tutored the neighborhood kids for a small fee. It helped and I got through the school, but it was a real drag, I can tell you that. She smelled bad, like old moth balls and her teeth were always, well, just nasty. Just what a teen aged boy wants to spend time with after school.

From what I understand you can go to tutorvista.com  where they offer folks Free math help and Free homework help for a large variety of subjects, K -12 and even up into the college years. Pretty cool huh? Pass the word it’s all good!
