That Forgetful Wife of Mine

Friday, August 14th, 2015

Last week, my wife Wooju and I took a trip to Aspen for our anniversary. We went skiing in the mountains. We crashed a couple of times, but it was so much fun. We had a romantic time in our warm cabin. We returned home with an awful surprise. The entire lower level of our house was flooded. Luckily, our cat was not home at the time. It was dangerous. Some electrical appliances were submerged in the water. I called a plumber in Essex County NJ to solve the problem. Wooju had an embarrassing look upon her face. She knew something that I did not know.

During the week of our departure to Aspen, our city was cold. The temperature outside was below freezing. I was already in Aspen and my wife planned to meet me there. I called my wife to tell her to leave the sinks dripping. This would have prevented the pipes from gaining too much pressure and rupturing. As usual, Wooju was running late. She must have overslept. After taking her shower, she quickly packed her bags and left for the airport. She forgot to leave the faucets dripping like I told her. (more…)

Small States Must Diversify Their Energy Infrastructure

Friday, August 14th, 2015

It’s still strange to think that I’m able to freely call a competing energy company (www.choosetexaspower.org) and have my service switched over should my current provider raise the prices. This is an option that I’ve never actually had before – it’s almost enough of a novelty that I simply want to switch services on principle. In Indiana I was never given a choice. I had the one company and I better be darn sure that I was happy with them because otherwise I wasn’t going to have any energy service to my home if I decided to cancel. Options are good for the market and good for the consumer soul.

In a very odd way it gives me a feeling that I would liken to safety. (more…)

Free Download for Audacity Program

Friday, August 14th, 2015

I am going to try to make some beats and re-mix some beats that my friend made on his computer. But in order to be able to do that, I am going to need to have a program to do that with. I do not have any software on my computer right nwo that is capable of mixing the beats that I want to look into finding an audacity free download for my computer.

I have heard good things about that software. I am not going to be able to download it right now, because I am riding in a car across the state, in order to get back to my apartment. I was out visiting my family for the holidays and now my brother is driving me back. (more…)

Working Around the Yard This Week

Friday, August 14th, 2015

I finally have the money to fix up the yard the way that Anna always wanted for it to be. We have just over an acre of land and there are a lot of trees in the back of the yard. They are not that bad looking by any measure, but we are going to get a tree service in westchester ny to clear out enough of them so that we can bring in some sun for a really nice little vegetable garden back in there. It will be pretty expensive, but of course you can not just go cutting down big trees without any skill or any foresight. It takes a bit of skill for you to do a safe job of it and obviously the objective is to get the tree down on the ground without any of the people involved getting killed or maimed. That always ruins the party from what I have learned.

The purpose is to have a nice place where we can grow a few flowers and a lot of vegetables. In the process I am willing to take down the trees which I can take down, but I figure it will be better if the really troublesome ones are removed first. I can do a very simple and straightforward job of cutting down a tree. It just has to be something that is going to go exactly where it is supposed to go with no other option either. I can not drop a tree that needs to be topped for example, I can climb a tree if you give me all of that gear and such. I can not climb a tree and then start playing around with a chainsaw. My saw is too heavy for that sort of playing around at any rate.

They Trimmed All of Our Trees

Friday, August 14th, 2015

When I bought a house in Brooklyn, I knew that all of my dreams had finally been answered. Not only did I marry a great guy and have three wonderful children with him, but we also found the perfect home in a school district that I was happy with. The only problem with the house were some of the trees were extremely large. I knew that I was going to contact a tree service in brooklyn ny to see about either pruning them or cutting them down before we even moved in. The trees are actually one of the things that appealed to me most, but that was only until my husband pointed out that their height was not healthy for the trees or for us. (more…)

Mom Looks Forward to Their Help

Friday, August 14th, 2015

When my mother fell a few months ago, my brother and I started talking to see which of our homes she would move into. We knew she would not be able to stay at home while she recuperated from her hip surgery as a result of her injuries. Both of us are single and work full time, but he travels more for work than I do. Because of that, it was decided she would move in with me. I take care of her when I am home, and I contacted a company that provides senior home care in long island to take care of her when I am at work. They handle all of her hygiene needs since I don’t have time to help her with a shower in the mornings. They also help her with her therapy exercises. They are very basic but she still needs help in getting them done. (more…)

Cheap Prices for Cypress Lake Apartments

Friday, August 14th, 2015

I am moving out of the apartment that I used to share with my girlfriend, and I am glad that things ended when they did, and did not wait until things got more serious. I guess that we were not meant to be together. I need to find a new place to stay, and I have been browsing the site for cypress lake apartments. I have decided that it looks like a pretty nice place to stay, and it meets most of my needs in a new apartment. As such, I am probably going to try to get a room there. I like the fact that the complex has a swimming pool. I know that a lot of apartment complexes have swimming pools, if not all of them. However, I have lived a place before that did not have a swimming pool, and that was not very pleasant. I have bad shoulders, and one of the things that I do as physical therapy, is to swim regularly. (more…)

Local ADT Security System is a Lifesaver

Friday, August 14th, 2015

I contacted my local adt security company to get a monitored alarm system installed at my mother’s house after my father passed away. She has always had him for comfort and safety even as he aged and became more feeble. Initially it was just a peace of mind thing to help her cope with staying in the home alone now. However, it proved to be very helpful in saving her life when the included smoke detector went off at night when she was sleeping. She heard it but was slow in getting out of the house.

The fire department was dispatched as soon as the alarm monitoring agency got the signal that the smoke detector was going off. They called us too because we are on the call list for when an alarm sounds. (more…)

Resources for Picking Electricity Compan

Thursday, August 13th, 2015

I am going to need to pick a new power company in the near future, because I can’t say that I have been very happy with the power company that I have been using for the last five years or so. I do not think they treat me like a valued customer, and so I do not see a good reason to continue to give them my business. I am looking for resources that will help me to pick out a new power company to buy power from and hopefully I will also be able to save some money in the process. That isn’t my main criteria though, because I am getting a fairly good rate.

There are just other issues that have influences that have played a part in my decision to want to change power companies. Some of them have to do with customer service, and some have to do with some other issues that I am not going to discuss at the moment. Mostly, because I feel that I would get too heated if I were to talk about the issues, and I do not want to go off on a huge rant right now. Which is definitely a possibility, so instead, I am going to look around and see what I can find in the way of resources and comparisons between different energy companies that provide service the area nearby to where I live.

My nose is really sore from my allergies. One of the disadvantages of living in this part of the country is that there is a lot of the pollen in the spring. My body does not handle pollen very well and a lot of time, I will get hay fever for about a week or so. It is very unpleasant to have to deal with.

Thursday, August 13th, 2015

Does your apartment have a large inground pool? How about a business work center with computers? Well, it if doesn’t have those, does it at least have a nice gym with new equipment? No?

Best Painters for Cheap in New Jersey

Thursday, August 13th, 2015

I am going to try to get my house painted by a painter in Bergen county NJ as part of my efforts in order to fix up my house, and to generally make it look better than it does right now. It is important to live in a house that looks good, and I must admit that I have been kind of lazy about making my house look good in the past. That is unfortunate, because I really do not know why I let my standards drop so much and it makes me sad in retrospect. But I am going to hire a painter in Bergen county NJ to paint the interior of my house. (more…)

Getting Tons of Great TV Channels

Thursday, August 13th, 2015

At first glance it may seem like buying a fancy package to get tons of channels on television is a waste of money that really does nothing productive. This is not at all true though, as television is about much more than just killing time in front of your big screen LED and fancy stereo system. There are tons of different uses and benefits, ranging from watching lessons on how to cook to learning about history or science to getting together with friends or family to watch something together. The website at http://www.cable-tv.com/dish-network/ shows exactly what customers can get from the Dish Network and why it is such a great deal for so many different people.

For example, if you want to get a case of beer and watch football with friends then there are sports packages that make sure you never miss a game. (more…)

Finding the Courage to Move

Thursday, August 13th, 2015

A friend of mine tossed me www.energyproviderstexas.com through an E-mail the other day in part of his continued effort to convince me to move to Texas which has admittedly been a huge part of the reason as to why I am beginning to think about it more seriously now. My budget has been extremely tight recently due to the lack of working coming my way. As a Freelancer, this is a part of life for me. You’re always going to be stressed; either from too much work or not enough work. Unfortunately I’d rather deal with the stress of having too much work.

Texas, however, is beginning to look more and more promising every day. (more…)
