Motorcycle Site

Although I am not one who rides motorcycles....my dad is. He's big into the motorcycle thing and asked me recently to find a helpful site online which would help him look for motorcycle parts. It didn't take me long and I came across Cruisercustomizing.com. They offer a really user friendly site that offers motorcycle yamaha parts and accessories. Check it out if you're into motorcycles, you won't be sorry you did.

Short Week

It's only Tuesday! This week so far has not started out very quickly. That's why I'm glad that it's a short week and I will have the holiday to relax and enjoy time with family. I am still debating whether or not to work on Friday. I would really like to take the day off and not go into work, but not sure I want to use a day of vacation to do that. We'll have to see.

Holsted Jewelers

I have a wife who loves jewelery. I've been looking around for a gift for her for Christmas and think I've decided to go with Holsted Jewelers. I came across their site and am very impressed with the fashionable jewelery, gifts and accessories they offer at prices that are outstanding! They have a great selection of merchandise that caters to the likings of many people. I'm always the type that likes to go with a company who is well known and trusted...that's what I like about Holsted. They have been in business since 1971 and currently serve millions of customers!! If you're looking for Designer Jewelry this holiday season, this may be the place you want to start.

Backache

I was lifting something at work yesterday and seemed to of hurt my back. My wife offered to rub it for me...but it's not a muscle ache, it's more like a pinched nerve or something that is out of alignment. I think I may have to go see a chiropractor if it doesn't get to feeling better soon... as it is really bothering me much of the day and night. Last night I did not sleep well at all and I think it was do to my aching back!

Bath Night

Tonight is Kaelyn's bath night. We give her a bath every other night when we can, and she absolutely loves it!! Now that she can sit and stand easily she has such a blast playing with her toys in the tub!! It's so fun to see her enjoying it so much. We have a few bath toys for her...but want to find more for her in the coming months. she enjoys it so much that it would be fun to make it even more fun for her.

Karisma Hotels

Awww....a nice warm place to vacation is sounded really good about now. I look out the window and all I see is snow....that is probably the biggest thing that's pushing me to plan a vacation with my wife. As look online for a mexico vacation...the Karisma Hotels stand out to me the most. I don't know if it's because of their beautiful secluded location on the beaches of the Mexican Riviera Maya, or if it's their Gourmet-Inclusive concept for people who love food?!? I actually think it may be due to the fact that they are know for their extremeely relaxing vacations and oustanding accomodations like bar swings, beach beds, beach butlers and more! The best part is it is quite affordable and doesn't make you feel like your spending gold to stay there.

Blogging

I just love blogging for money. One of my favorite companies to blog for is Blogitive. I like them because they give many opportunities during the week for people to make money. They put them out there and give everyone a chance to grab them. They only pay 5 dollars a piece, but for as many as they put out there that's fine with me! I think I probably make the most money with this company over any of the others. I especially like how they give you two days to do the posts. I really appreciate that being a working person.

My Wife

My wife is the best. She not only takes care of our daughter every day of the week...but she also takes such good care of our home and does other things as well. Lately she's been trying to get done some Christmas cards that we're sending out to family and friends. I just admire her for how much she does. I appreciate her so much and all that she does! Thanks honey!

Denver Magazine

I have always thought it would be fun to go on a vacation to Colorado. From what I hear it's a great place to visit. I was interested in learning more about all they have to offer, so I began searching and found their monthly feature, the Denver Restaurants. There is great information in there regarding local businesses, political and cultural information...even restaurants and entertainment. Basically everything someone would need to know like me who is looking to visit there at some point in the near future. If you'd like to check it out, take a look at their site and see what you think.

Yeah!

I'm SO glad it's Friday! It's been a very long week and I look forward to having the weekend off. We have things to do this weekend...but it's good to know that I'll still be home with the family and not working. Weekends are the best time of the week. I'm sure most people feel that way too...however after you've worked so much like I have over the past week...you appreciate your time at home even more!

So tired!

Well...I'm officially exhausted! I'm not trying to complain at all...as I love my job...but boy is it keeping me busy lately. My old job was SO much worse....as this time of year I was hardly home and I hardly slept. This job I at least get home at a descent time and do get plenty of time with family and for sleep...but the past few days have just been long and draining. I am looking forward to this busy season to be over with so I can catch up on some much needed rest. Sometimes just working so much can really wear a person out. That's where I'm at right now....

Weekend Plans

We always enjoy getting out some on the weekends. Jen and kaelyn especially...as they are kind of coupled up in the house most of the week with this cold weather now. This weekend I think we're going to do some things around the house today, but then will go and visit her family tomorrow afternoon. We haven't been there in a while and thought it would be fun. Hopefully the weather holds out so we are able to go.

Loving it!

I am sure enjoying my new job! I've been there for almost a two months now and so far it's exactly what I had hope it would be and more! They make it easy for me to spend time with my family and do a job that I love. Sales is definitely my thing. I know with the economy the way it is some were worried that I may make a wrong decision by quitting my previous job....but I knew God would work it out if it was meant to be...and He did!! I'm so thankful!

Regency

More than 50 years ago a beauty school called Regency was founded and started up. Over the years they have continued to grow into what is called the fastest growing beauty school in the country. They went from only having two schools in Minnesota, to almost 30 campuses in 2002 across the country. They are planning to continue their growth over the next year which is very exciting for many interested in beauty schools in michigan.

The unique approach that they bring to this field of education is amazing from what I've read. The hands on experience their students receive not only benefits them and their future success, but also the salons and the community. I was impressed with the information I read about this school and wanted to pass it along for others that might be interested in it.

Getting the House Ready

Jen and I have seriously been discussing the option of moving this Spring. To do that though, we obviously have to sell our house. Before we put it on the market at the end of winter....we really want to get some things done first. One of those things is to paint the ceiling in our family room. It's definitely seen better days, and it's an inexpensive way to really liven up that room a bit. I'm going to tackle that job today I think. It will be time consuming, but will look so nice once it's done. I am also planning to reseal the bathtub upstairs. Other than that we just have things here and there that we'll do before me move. All and all though...it will be ready to sell which is great. Now we just need to start looking for a different house....

Winter Weather

We woke up this morning to find the snow falling. I was really hopeful that the snow would be gone by this weekend...but unfortunately it continues to fall. Maybe this is a sign that winter will be here early and then be gone earlier?! No, probably not. I have a feeling it means we're in for a long winter. We'll just have to see I guess. I sure wish it wasn't so cold and snowy already though...I haven't even had the chance to rake up all the leaves yet. Bummer....

Capella University

Have you ever wanted to go back to school but didn't know how you would do it and keep your job at the same time?

Relaxing Weekend

I love Saturdays, especially when I don't have to work!! It seems like there's always things to do...but I love being able to relax some with the family as well. I mean, I don't mind the weekdays...I like my job a lot! But I also really enjoy having a couple of days off...who doesn't, right?!? Some saturdays I have to work, but now with the weather getting colder it will become less and less.

Cape Verde Islands

Someday I think it would be a lot of fun to invest in properties around the world! It's always something that I have wanted to do, and hope to one day get the chance! I was recently reading about this, and came across a new property hotspot for investors on the cape verde islands. In looking at Homes Abroad Cape Verde which is a part of the Homes Abroad Group...I was very impressed and know this is something I'd be interested in. How about you? They are an established real estate agent who has successfully sold property in countries like Spain, Turkey, Cyprus and others! Check out their site for more information if you're interested in learning more about how you could invest in Cape Verde Property !

Birthday Girl!

Well....the day is finally here! Our little girl is one year old! Tomorrow is the day of her actual party...but we're excited to have the opportunity to spend the day with her today, just relaxing and opening gifts. I had to work this morning, but am happy to be home and see the Birthday Girl! Jen and I were looking through some pictures recently of Kaelyn when she was just born and it's so weird to see how much a baby changes in the first year! She's such a joy.
