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.

The Garage

Every once in awhile, it is prudent for me to spend some time in the garage. I love my woman, but sometimes it is necessary to let her have some breathing room. I don’t mind retreating into garage as there are many things I like about it. All my tools are there and I really enjoy using them whenever an odd project comes up. I can always work on the cars if I feel like it as well.

There are also other things to do as well. I have a dart board on the wall and may spend quite a bit of time playing the game. Sometimes I will work on the bikes and make sure they are in good condition. The garage is a place of refuge for me and I have grown to rely on its relaxing nature to keep me sane when times are hard!

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.

A shout out to John!

I just wanted to send a shout out to my friend John. He recently entered the hospital for some work on his plumbing if you will and we expect he will be out soon. John is a really great guy and we are all rooting for him to come through his operation with flying colors. I am glad to report that John has the love and support from his family and friends.

Get well soon John!

Fun for the kids

One thing that my wife and I agree on is the fact that we love our children. We are always looking for new ways to make them happy. Whenever they do things well, such as a school project or test, we like to reward them. Sometimes this is a special meal or a movie. Other times, we get them their favorite toys. When we buy toys, we usually do it online.

There are many advantages to buying toys online. They are usually cheaper than a toy store and many times can be delivered free. You can also expect to find a variety of toys such as Action Figures. Our kids love them and there are always new ones coming out. Another area to find excellent deals is in the Classic Toys department. My wife and I love buying these toys as it reminds us of the toys we used to own. There is nothing like a reminder from the past to make us open our wallets!

As much as we like to buy our favorite toys, the children are usually taken with the latest Kids Electronic Toys. They are always attracted by the flashing lights and noises that they make. Some of these toys are really fun to play with and I wish we had them when I was young. All in all, whatever kind of toys we buy; the kids always appreciate them and spend hours playing.

My favorite places

My family is always on the lookout for new places to go. We love to travel and do so whenever we can. After talking it over with the kids, we all decided that we wanted to visit one of the Myrtle Beach Resorts that a friend of mine had told us about. He spoke about the beach, shopping, and other activities to do there and we wanted to try it out. The kids were especially excited about going.

My wife and I like to golf. We wanted to try out some new courses that we hadn’t played before and there are many courses in that area. Whenever you visit a Myrtle Beach Resort, you can count on the fact that you will have plenty to do. The kids were much more interested in visiting the beach. They love the water and like to play along the shore building their sandcastles.

The best part about the whole deal is that it’s a wonderful place to getaway to. No matter which of the many Myrtle Beach Hotels you visit, you can always count on the best service and accommodations. We enjoyed our visit there so much that we are planning another trip next year. I’ll have to thank my friend for informing us about this wonderful place, he certainly helped us enjoy our summer!

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!

Free water

One thing we love to do around our house is to save money. I heard about one good way to do just that. A friend of mine told me about his investment in a rain barrel. I had heard about them before, but didn’t really know what they were for or how they could save me money. My friend explained it all to me. Whenever it rains, water runs off your roof and into a gutter. Typically, this water runs into the street or into your yard. This water is wasted and has no value.

The benefits of rain water barrels are that they capture this water and you can use it at a later time. This water is known as “soft water” because it usually does not contain Chlorine, calcium, or lime. That makes the water excellent for gardens and lawns. Every year, thousands of gallons of water run away from your house when it could be used for a good purpose. There are other benefits as well.

Whenever you engage in rain harvesting, you are helping the environment as well. By taking advantage of this type of system, you are able to prevent water from having to be treated. This saves on water costs and chemicals that are wasted to treat water you are just going to put on your lawn anyway. Since I have installed my own rain barrel, I have been happy to know that I am saving money and helping the environment!

Cell Phone Woes!

The other day I noticed something flying off my car as I turned a corner. It turns out that it was my cell phone. I turned around and retrieved the phone from the street. The bad part was that the entire screen was shattered. I knew I was in for a lot of wasted time trying to get it fixed. I went to the Verizon store and wanted a replacement. They informed me that I would have to call in for one and send in the broken phone as well.

I had insurance on the phone, but it still cost me $50 dollars to replace it. I sent it in and I must say that I was happy to receive my new phone in a couple of days. I went back to the store and had them move all my settings from my old phone to the new. I was glad they were able to and now I am back where I started except for the fact that I am out fifty bucks!

Serious Business

Our company is really great about helping out any employee in need. That’s why they supported one of the members of our staff when he encountered some serious problems with addiction. We believe that quality care can help people overcome any problems they may have and that it is the best solution in the long run. That’s why we supported Mike in his time of need.

Mike is a really great guy who recently went through a tough divorce. The problems he had at home affected him in a dramatic way. There came a time when he could no longer hide the problems he had developed. Our company fully supported him when he found that he needed alcohol rehab. We gave him the time necessary to heal the wounds he had inflicted upon himself.

Mike also needed to learn about the latest in drug rehab info. We were glad to find that he was taking his problem seriously and taking the steps necessary to regain control over his life. Now that Mike is back, we are all a lot more aware of potential problems in this area. I would ask that anyone who knows someone with even the potential of having a problem to investigate and find the best addiction resource information. I believe that everyone involved will be a lot better off!
