Ads
As I search online I can't believe how many ads I come across. Whether it's a pop up ad for Chicago personal injury lawyers or information on diet pills and rehab treatment programs. I don't mind some of the ads, but when it's the same thing over and over...it gets kind of old. Sometimes I wish I could just get online, do what I need to do and not have to worry about trying to dodge ads everywhere. Oh well, I guess that's the way it is. People need to advertise and make money the same way we all do, right?!

Life Insurance
Now that I have a good job, I have been considering life insurance more and more. I am thinking that it would be a good choice for me to make at some point in the near future. So that I'm sure to get the very best policy, I've been looking through life insurance quotes given to me by an insurance agent. I think I'll be able to find something I'm happy with...it's just a matter of when that's the question.

New Banner For Website
I don't know why, but I'm not feeling the best today. I haven't been getting enough sleep, and I have a headache...so I have a feeling those two things together are making me feel yucky! After work today I was going to go back to see my family...but maybe I should go back to my place...take a nap and get rested up for the weekend. I could always head back this evening still or even tomorrow morning. We'll have to see. I have a feeling staying up until 4 working on the banner for my new website probably wasn't the best idea.....Here's a glimpse at what I've been working on...

Time Flies
Wow, where did the month of June go?! I was just sitting her trying to get some work done on the computer and can't believe that July is already in sight in just a week. That hardly seems possible!! I love my summers and really don't want to see it go by quite so quickly. I guess there's nothing I can do about it though, except just sit back and enjoy it as much as possible. Unfortunately where I live we only get a few months out of the year that are nice enough to really enjoy the outdoors. I wish it were longer, but we have to enjoy what we're given. Hopefully July and August won't go by quite as quickly as June has.

Speaking of time flying...I really need to get back to the work I have on the computer. I tend to get sidetracked when I am procrastinating on finishing work that I'm not at all interested in doing!

Wedding Planning
I remember a few years ago, my sister was planning her wedding. She was living at home at the time so I remember seeing all that went into planning this big day. It seemed to be quite stressful and overwhelming for her. When I get married I want to make sure to take advantage of something like WeddingChannel.com. They help brides and grooms with Wedding Planning by giving them things like interactive planning tools, photos, local vendor guides and more. I think it's a great way to take some of the stress out of planning and make it more fun. Check them out if you'd like to learn more.

 

Busy Baby
My little niece is so cute. My sister is really good to send us video of the things she is doing...and she recently sent a video of her laughing really hard. It was adorable. She's going to be 8 months old and is doing so much! She's already pulling herself up onto things and even has started to take a couple steps while holding on to something. I think it's great...but I know she keeps her parents very busy! Oh well...they love it! I just had to share...as my new little niece (and nephew) are a very important part of my life now!!

 

Regency Beauty Schools
Whenever a school has been around for a long time, you know that there's something to be said for the quality. I think of quality when I think of Regency hair schools! They were founded more than 50 years and are still the fastest growing beauty school in the country. Regency went from having only two schools, to having almost 30 campuses across the states. That's pretty impressive. Now more people can enjoy and take advantage of all they have to offer students interested in cosmetology education. They offer a really unique educational experience, while having the benefits of hands on learning and terrific placement opportunities in salons, runways and more! Head over to their site if this is something you might be interested in.

Vacation
My sister and her husband were telling me recently that they really are wanting to get away for a few days this summer. They're seriously discussing the option of going to a zoo of some sort. There is one near where they live that would be free...however, they're also considering one that is a little further away and a bit nicer. They were asking me my opinion as I've been to both...and knowing how much I'm online they asked if I'd look into both and see what I can find. From what I can tell, the closer free one would be perfect!! I know my niece would really love all the animals no matter where they go. How do I know?! Well, when I was visiting my brother and his family in Texas...my nephew absolutely loved the zoo and all the animals...

I can't wait!
I love it that my sister keeps me updated on how my little niece is doing. My brother does the same with his little guy. It's nice to see what they're doing and actually get to watch them on video sometimes too. That way it makes me feel like I'm right there not missing a beat. It's hard not living closer to them...so the updates are sure nice. Soon I will actually get to see both little ones in person together..the first time since Christmas!! I can't wait.

 

Radiator.com
I am a huge car nut, so I always enjoy learning about new sites dealing with anything to do with cars. Recently I came across Radiator.com. This is the best place to go for all of your radiator needs. They have radiators for all makes and models...including ford radiators. The Ford Motor Company is known for their great vehicles and all of them use a specialized ford radiator to help the needs of the engine. When you are looking to replace your Taurus Radiator, radiator.com is the place for you! They have thousands in stock!! The quality and guarantee make them different than any other company that I've come across. If you'd like to learn more about them like I did...check out their site today.

 

Glasses VS Contacts
I hate getting headaches. Sometimes I wonder if it's from sitting all day, and then other times i wonder if it's my eyes. I seem to feel better when I remember to wear my glasses at work. I sit in front of a computer a lot during the day...so glasses really help. I suppose it would be a good idea to head over to the eye doctors sometime soon...that way I can figure out if maybe it is my eyes causing these problems. My best bet would probably be to get some contacts.

 

Irritating Spam E-mail
I am really getting tired of all the junk mail I get in my inbox!! It never fails...if I go a day without checking my mail for one reason or another...I find hundreds of spam e-mails! So much so, that I actually find myself switching e-mail addresses a lot. I don't like doing this, as it is quite a pain to let everyone know my new e-mail address....but what can you do. The spam filters don't seem to do anything...as there are THOUSANDS of people sending spam mail each day!

 

Blue Lotus
Do you know that some modern-day spiritual explorers use the word entheogen because it means to become divine within?! It's a word related to ethnobotanical, which is a broader term used for the plants that supposedly have healing properties in them. Some of which are Kanna, Amanita muscaria, and Ayahuasca. Others are Hawaiian baby woodrose, morning glory, and blue lotus. If you'd like to learn more about these plants and the properties they have that help to heal...you can check out their site today! They don't offer legal highs though, which is an important thing to note!
On their site you won't only find products, but also article with very interesting information that you'll be happy you took a look at.

 

Where did June go?
Wow, where did the month of June go?! I can't believe that July is already in sight. That hardly seems possible!! I love my summers and really don't want to see it go by quite so quickly. I guess there's nothing I can do about it though, except just sit back and enjoy it as much as possible. Unfortunately where I live we only get a few months out of the year that are nice enough to really enjoy the outdoors. I wish it were longer, but we have to enjoy what we're given. Hopefully July and August won't go by quite as quickly as June has.

 

So Tired
I have been incredibly tired lately! Even though I'm on vacation, I still am not used to being so busy and going non-stop. This morning I woke up early as I always do...but decided that it would be nice to lay down for a little nap. I laid down and had to pull myself out of bed an hour later. I think I probably could have laid there much longer had I wanted to. Seeing how this is our last day in Texas though, I wanted to get up and spend as much time as I could with the fam. I can always nap on the plane and once I get home.

 

New Shoes
I get to dress up for work which is great! I never thought I'd like that part of my job, but turns out it's actually a lot of fun. There's something about dressing nicely that makes a person feel more confident and better about themselves. It's a great start to the day each morning. Since I have to dress up every day, I often find myself looking for deals on nice clothing. One item I still don't have enough of is shoes. Many of the people I work with wear the Ecco shoes most often. I am looking around to see if I can find a pair that I like and can afford. They're a very nice looking shoe.

 

Symark Software
Have you ever heard of Symark Software before? I try and stay up to date on things like this...so when I heard that they recently announced that their power broker and PowerPassword-User Management Edition access control solutions will fully support the new HP Integrity servers...I thought I had better pass it along, as I knew there were people would like to know the news just as much as I did!What's great is that this leading provider of UNIX and Linux security administration solutions helps to keep keep information safe for organizations and industries while still complying with federal and industrial regulations. It was fun to read and learn more about them. If you'd like to as well...just head over to their site where you'll find a lot more information.

 

Social Networking
At first I was dead set against getting a social networking account with any of the popular sites. I didn't see the point. I thought it would just be a waste of time, and something that people were just liking for a phase. After years of being prodded by my girlfriend and my sister about setting up an account, I finally did with Facebook. To my surprise I really like it! It's a great way to keep in touch with friends, as well as let people know what I'm up to these days. I'm glad they talked me into it...I really like it.

 

Weird Weather
It's weird because I was talking to my sister who lives in Minnesota and she was telling me that the temps are nearing the 80's there!! Here I am in Texas visiting my brother where it's barely 70 and raining a lot!! It's odd that the weather seems to have reversed itself when I came down. It was rainy and cold when I left Iowa...and now it's like that here. Now, when I go back north, the cold and rain will probably follow me again.

Having Fun!

While down in Texas we've been able to do a lot of fun things. I'm really just enjoying having a week off from work and being able to relax with the family! I've spent quite a bit of time with my niece up north, but hadn't gotten a lot of time to spend with my nephew here in Texas. So...this has been a sincere pleasure of mine to come visit for a whole week. Here's a pic of Renee, Emry and I at the game. Isn't he cute?! :)

 

Trip to Texas
We are having SUCH a blast down in Texas! We've been able to hang out by the pool....enjoy some sporting events and even check out a really cool zoo! Best of all we've been able to hang out with my brother, his wife, and my cute little nephew all week too!! Emry has gotten so big since the last time I saw him and he's such a sweetie. It's going to be sad to leave them on Saturday....but they'll be back in a couple weeks so I hope to see them then too. Here's a little clip of what we've been doing...

 

New Watch
For my job I've been looking around for a great watch. I have to dress up now, so something of good quality would be great! In looking around, I came across vialuxe.com. This is reallyone of the most user friendly sites I've ever come across when it comes to jewelry. It makes it easy and fun to find the pieces that I'm looking for. For instance, I knew that I wanted to find a Hublot watch, so I just went under brands...found Hublot and that was it! SO EASY! They also have a section for news, blogs, and even a dealer locater option. It's all very informative, making your shopping experience even better. Vialuxe is known for their service...you can even call or chat with someone about the questions you may have. I'm very happy I found this site and thought others may like to check it out too. If you've never visited Vialuxe.com and the great site and products they have to offer...check it out today! You'll be sure to find everything that you're looking for...quality, service, etc. See what you think and find all the information you need right in one place. You won't be sorry you did!! I know I'm not.

 

Fun in Texas!
I am so glad that Renee was able to come down to Texas with me this summer! Other times she has not been able to, so it was nice that it worked out for both of us. She had never been here, so she's really enjoying it. We're both having fun with my brother, his wife...and of course my little nephew!! He's the best. He's always smiling and really in a good mood most of the time. He's a sweet little guy. I'm looking forward to him and my niece meeting again...they did when they were just newborns...but now it would be a lot of fun to see since they're getting older and more alert.

 

Great News!
Sounds like the water is starting to recede back home. We're in Texas so I wasn't sure how all the flooding was doing...but in talking to some family and friends, it sounds like it's doing much better!! My poor town was one that was hit the hardest. Thankfully I am on a better part of town and in a top apartment. I don't know what I would have done if I had lost all of my things like some people I know! The flooding was just horrible! I'm glad it sounds like it's getting better...that's GREAT news!

 

Monex Deposit Company
Monex Deposit Company is a great place for people to purchase silver, gold and other precious metals! They make it easy by allowing for personal delivery, or delivery to a bank or other safe storage place of your choice. It's not only what they offer, but their customer service as well. They are known for outstanding service and that is why they have been in business for over 30 years!! Monex Companies are America's leader when it comes to the investment of precious metals like gold and silver. I know this is the company I want to do business with, how about you? If so, check out their site for further information and see if this is what you've been looking for as well! You'll find it's easy to buy gold coin and silver coin.

 

Fun Vacation
The weather is sure hot here! Wow!! Back home it's been in the 60's and 70's, but here in Texas it's very warm. I knew it would be hotter than home, but didn't plan clothing for temps quite this hot. Oh well...it's better than being cold I guess. My sister was telling me that it was quite chilly there this morning at home. I told her I was sweating already at 8 in the morning!! She was jealous...and wants to come down to visit sometime too. Hopefully she will be able to...she'd have a good time!

 

So Much Fun!
We are having such a nice time in Texas. So far we've done some pretty fun things...and it sounds like we'll be able to do a lot more as the week goes on. Last night we went to a shooting range which I had never done before! That was a lot of fun. Now tonight we're going to a Rangers game, tomorrow six flags, the next day an aquarium and so much more! I can't wait. This vacation is so much fun...I know I'm not gonna want to leave when the weekend comes!

 

Medical Software for PDA
I don't know about you, but one of the most frustrating things about going to the Drs is having them take their time trying to find you a prescription. I mean, don't get me wrong...it's much appreciated...but I just don't like the time it takes to do it. Being the technology nut that I am...I recently heard of some medical software by Epocrates that over 500,000 healthcare professionals are now using. It helps them get drug information like dosing, side effects, and health plan coverage. The software can be used right on their PDA or smartphone for easy accessibility! Isn't that wonderful? I thought this was great...for both drs and patients alike! learn more about free drug reference for iphone on their site today!
This announcement was paid for by Epocrates

 

Business Travel
I found out recently that I will be doing quite a bit of traveling with my new job position. I'm really excited because I get to go to some really great places that I've never been before. I think we even get private jet charter for some of our trips. I just love my job. We're treated so well and get to do some really fun things!! It's definitely my dream job and one I'm so blessed to have. I can't wait to see all that's in store for me here at this company! I'm very fortunate to have a job I love at such a young age.

 

Losing Weight
I have been hearing a lot about this new thing called Phentermine. I don't know if anyone has heard about this or not...but I guess it's something many people are looking into to help them lose weight faster. I have heard many co workers talk about this at work. In looking into it more...I'm not sure what to think about it yet. What I do like though is that there are plenty of reviews done about it...so anyone looking to get some can find out what others think about it first.

 

New Luggage
A couple of years ago my sister and her husband got some luggage for Christmas. I got to thinking about this as I recently packed for a vacation to Texas, and thought this would be something that I should ask for, for Christmas this year. I travel enough with my job and for leisure that it would definitely be worth getting something nice and strong. I need a few different sizes...big, small...and maybe even a carry on size. I think I might start looking now to see what I can find.

 

Finally!
Finally I'm in Texas! It's been a long time coming and I couldn't be happier. We're having the best time already...I'm really excited that we have a whole week to visit with my brother and his family. My little nephew has changed so much! I can't believe how much a baby can change in just a matter of months. Renee is having a great time too. It's so nice that she was able to come as well! It wouldn't be quite the same without her here too.

 

Personal Loans Lender
It's so funny, just the other day my sister was talking about looking into getting a personal loan. She is looking for something that would be perfect for them, and knew that I'm pretty good and finding things like this online. What do you know?! I found exactly what they're looking for. With PersonalLoansLender.com, they can get a personal loan, bad credit personal loan, or even a fast payday loan! I don't think they need all of those things, but it's good to know there's a place to get them if needed! You can use this site to get fast and online application. This is great for people who are needing to get back on their feet quickly and easily!! They're going to be so excited to see what I've found for them.

 

Texas Here I Come!
Ok..so typically I write about how excited I am that it's Friday..just because that means the weekend is upon us. However, today I am not only excited for that...but also because that means that tomorrow Renee and I fly out to Texas!!! YEAH! I get to see my brother and his family in about 24 hours and I couldn't be happier!! How exciting. We're there for a whole week and I can't wait. We're going to have so much fun. And best of all...I get to see my little nephew again.

 

Vacation
It seems like this is the time of year that everyone I work with wants to go on vacation. There are some of us traveling within the US, while others are looking to travel over seas. Either way...it's great that so many of us are going to be able to get away for a little bit and relax. This will help to refresh us once we start back to work. I am going to Texas, but one guy I work with is actually looking into the Caribbean and Caribbean villa rentals! I thought that was pretty neat. I think Texas will be so much fun though, I can't wait!

 

Truly Blessed
When I graduated from college, to be honest...I really had no idea what I was going to do! I didn't know whether I would be working in sales, or doing something with my engineering degree. I had absolutely no idea what kinds of jobs were out there for me...that is, until John Deere came along. Now, I am happy to say that I have the job of my dreams! I couldn't ask for anything better. Before my engineering job came along, I thought I may have to look at Boston jobs or something. Thankfully it worked out so I could stay close to family and Renee! I am truly blessed!!

 

Dressing Up
When I was in college I rarely dressed up. I would wear jeans and a t-shirt every where I went. Then, I graduated and that all changed. I now dress up for work...wearing dress pants and dress shirts. It's quite the change for me, but I really enjoy it!! It's fun dressing nice and going to work feeling good about the way you look. Since I dress up so much now, I've actually been looking at some men's jewelry...mainly watches, but there's also some really nice necklaces out there as well. We'll have to see, but I'm guessing I will get something here in the near future.
