Our piano

One thing that has become of interest around our house is our old piano. My father played the piano for years in a band and it’s been around for as long as I can remember. I never learned to play myself as I am a little tone deaf. The piano has sat in the spare room for years along with a large stack of piano sheet music and no one has taken advantage of it; that is until now. My son decided he wanted to learn to play.

When he first started, I thought that he would tire of it and quit after a few weeks. To my surprise, he kept up with his lessons and has progressed very well. The problem was that he soon ran out of piano sheet music to play. We were lucky to find a cool site called yokewong.net that had a selection of music to choose from. Now he is playing every day and is thinking of joining a band.

For myself, I am glad to hear the old piano singing out again. Many of my early memories include the piano in some way and I like to hear it played. I am sure that my father would be happy to know that his grandson has taken up the family tradition and all is well.

Music and fun

There are several things my family likes to do. We all enjoy listening to music and we love to travel as well. Whenever possible, we like to put the two together for a great time. It’s not as hard to do as you might think. I know a few tricks that can help make it easier to plan out a trip. There is a site called acheapseat.com that enables you to find tickets all over the country for a variety of events.

Recently, we packed up our things and headed for Ohio to visit my sister. Since we were in the area, we thought we might as well see a concert while we were there. I managed to find Blossom Music Center Tickets for a major rock show that would be held during our stay. We had to take two vehicles for us all to fit in, but it was worth it all as we had a blast.

Another example of this is when we were in Pittsburg. This time was a little different as we went to a hockey game. I was able to obtain Mellon Arena Tickets and put them on my office account. The best part was that we were right down by the glass so we saw all the action. That was a great time.

On our latest trip, we all packed into the car and headed to Florida. I wanted to take my son to a ballgame, so I found some LandShark Stadium Tickets and got a ticket for both of us. We enjoyed the game and almost caught a foul ball. All in all, we always have a great time when we are traveling. It’s good to take advantage of the local events while your there. After all, fun is where you find it.

Where to get it

Since we do so much of our shopping online, we have found a few sites that we return to time after time. One of these sites is called zappos.com and it’s one of our favorites. We like to take advantage of their great prices and free shipping. I am also impressed by their 365 day return policy. All in all, it’s a good deal.

Whenever my wife gets on the site, she always finds something she wants. The other day she bought two pairs of Skirts that she just had to have. She always has to have something. The kids have been known to shop there too. My daughter found some Pajamas that she wanted and I got those for her. When my son found out that his sister got something, he didn’t want to be left out.

My son likes to shop online as he doesn’t like to go to the mall. I don’t blame him for that so I usually will but him whatever he wants online. He selected a pair of Pants that he liked and that was ok with me. The only thing left to do now is to find something for myself. Since everyone has made a selection, I might as well get something too.

Shop till you drop

One thing my wife and I both like to do is shop. We have found that shopping online is the easiest and most convenient way to do so. In our travels over the internet, we have found one site that we consistently return to. It’s called zappos.com and we both like it. There are many benefits to shopping on this site.

One thing we like is their wide selection of clothing. They have all the brand names that you trust and would find in the stores. Another good thing is that they have something for everyone in the family. Whether it’s something for us or our kids, they have it all. The other day my son wanted some new shirts, I was able to find one that he liked quickly on this site.

My wife also enjoys shopping here. She is always looking for new dresses to purchase and she was not disappointed. She was also able to take advantage of the free shipping for clothes and received hers overnight. I am glad to know that we don’t have to drive to a crowded mall and fight the crowds to shop. This way is so much easier and I like it so much better!

Clothes and more!

Since my secretary Beth from the office is expecting soon, I knew I would have to come up with a gift for her. I knew that she preferred to receive items for the baby and so I started looking into the situation. After scanning the internet, I found a site called loulouscorner.com that had the items I was looking for.

I thought that Beth would enjoy receiving designer baby clothes for the newborn baby. This is her first child and I know she wants to spoil her. The first item I found that I knew she would enjoy was from a collection from barefoot dreams. They have a selection of little robes and hoodies that I knew she would love. After deciding on that, I moved on to other items.

I know from my own experience that a child can never have enough shirts. That’s why I decided to purchase a sweet little t-shirt from appaman. I believe she’ll love the shirt and put it to good use. Of course, no child should go without a stuffed animal. That’s why I was sure to select one of the jellycat animals that were available. The best part about the whole thing is that I know I’ll be able to select something from this site as a gift for years to come and look like the best boss in the whole world!

Wiki and I

One of the websites I take advantage of most is Wikipedia. It’s an online encyclopedia that is very useful at times. There is a lot of debate about the site because of the fact that just about anyone can add or subtract from it. It is written by people who have an interest in the subject and hopefully have some expertise.

I think it’s a great site. It is easy to use and contains information on almost every subject. I use it at work a lot and have found it to be a good source. I know that there are those who disapprove of its use, but I say it’s always worked for me!

Any apps that can print

It seems that nowadays our entire lives revolve around computers. This is especially true around our office. One problem that I take care of on an almost daily basis is the ability to view documents. Whenever a crisis like this arises, I turn to one of my favorite sites. It’s called pdfconverted.com and they have the answers I seek. I like to take advantage of their services when I need a pdf conversion. It’s a handy way to save time and money.

A pdf (Portable Document Format) file can be easily read by many of the top operating systems. This includes Windows, Linux, and Apple. By downloading this application, I can use the pdf creator to create pdf files from nearly every application. I also like the fact that I don’t have to worry because pdf files support links, levels of encryption, and java script.

I have found that my office life is made easier by the fact that I can use pdf software to ensure that my documents are readable by nearly everyone with a computer. This helps to facilitate our business and helps our customers who may not be computer savvy. My hope is that everyone will take a minute to check out this site and use it to your advantage.

Weighing your options

There are many things I do around our office. One thing I have to take care of from time to time is setting up new websites. Whether it is for work or as a favor for one of my employees, I have set up many sites. One of the best tools I have used for this is a site called webhostinggeeks.com. The site provides many features and the one I use most is the comparison feature.

What the site basically does is allow you to compare the various web site hosting services that are out there. There are many of these services and it can be difficult to select the right one for you. Depending on how you will use your site and what it is for, there are many options. There is no sense in paying more than you need to for a service that you may never use. I have found this site to be reliable and intelligent.

Whenever I have a technical question, I go to the people in my office with experience in the field. That’s why I like this site as they have the knowledge it takes to be successful. They review each site and make it easy to compare them. This way, I can select the best option for the site I want to build. Anyone who is thinking about building a site should check out this service. You may save your self a lot of time and trouble.

A Secure Feeling

One thing that bothers me is the fact that my kids get home from school before I get home from work. While it’s true that we live in a pretty good neighborhood, you never know what could happen. A few weeks ago there was a break-in down the street and it honestly scared me. I can’t help but wonder what if my kids were home when a break-in occurred.

I decided to take action right away. I started to do some research online into the area of Home Security Systems. I found a site called homesecurityteam.com that had the answers I was looking for. I was glad to find that there are experts in the field of Home Security that can help you find the best ways to secure your home. They are a reputable company with many years of experience in the field.

In the end, I decided that protecting my family was important. I wanted to be sure that my children would be safe in case I’m not home. I was fortunate to be able to purchase an ADT Security System that was easy to use and quickly installed. Now I feel so much better knowing that I have done all I could to keep my family from harm.

The cool crib

I found a pretty neat website I like the other day. My sister turned me onto it and I think it’s pretty cool. It’s called the cavemanscrib.com and I have been playing on it for the last day or two. I’m sure you all remember the caveman from the many Geico commercials on TV. This website lets you access his apartment and look around.

The caveman has had some parties and you can see the aftermath. You can watch his videos and play his music. The caveman comes out from time to time and makes some funny joke. I think it’s really great and hope you have time to check it out!
