One Fish, Two Fish

My grandfather has a beeeautiful backyard with a huge koi fish pond. I wonder where he gets his pond supplies? I would love to have a fish pond but they require tons of maintenance, and with a little one I would be scared that it could be a hazard when she starts walking.

My grandfather has even bred some of his koi fish and given them to friends and neighbors to put in their pond. He’s hardcore like that!

Maybe you should move?

Have you ever experienced cross country moving? What an adventure! An old friend of mine moved from California all the way to Tennessee and it was tons of fun! We took turns driving and made many random stops in cities and states I had never been to before!

It didn’t quite work out and they ended up moving back, but I have to say the excitement of the unknown and the process of the actual move was so much fun!

Getaway.

We are in desperate need of a vacation, so much so that I’ve been looking into myrtle beach vacation rentals. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to go to the beach for a week or even a weekend. I haven’t taken a proper vacation since I was in my teens, many moons ago. I visited North Carolina a few years ago with an ex but it was so full of stress that I can’t imagine considering it a vacation.

I want to go out of town with Shawn and my baby and have a truly good time, with no stress. Isn’t that what a vacation is all about? Having fun and not worrying about anything else?

I sure think so!

DenTek Custom Comfort

It seems as though most people who grind their teeth in their sleep aren’t aware of it. There are many nights when I wake Shawn up because he is clenching his teeth so hard they squeak, and that is a sound I cannot stand. When I received the DenTek Custom Comfort Nightguard, I was extremely excited to have him try it out.

The process of fitting the dental mouth guard to your teeth is quick and easy as demonstrated in the video above. Both Shawn and myself felt that the guard was very comfortable, however it may be a bit too bulky to sleep in. If grinding your teeth in your sleep is a HUGE problem, though, I can see that being easy to overlook!

Overall, I think the DenTek Custom Comfort Nightguard is a great product!

Cutting-edge Virus Protection

At this day and age, antivirus software is a MUST. Just today I realized that my credit card had been used not once, but twice to pay someone’s (large) web hosting bills.

I’ve never been one to use anti viral software because they are usually bulky, annoying memory hogs. However, I learned that this is not always a must when it comes to programs that help protect your computer. Sunbelt Software has released VIPRE, an antivirus application that is unlike others–it doesn’t slow down your pc! Download.com rated the software with 5 stars for it’s cutting edge protection. It is designed to handle and protect you against many types of viruses and malicious software as well as email-borne threats that are becoming more and more popular.

But that’s not all! VIPRE is great for netbooks, works on many new versions of Windows and DOES NOT automatically charge your credit card!

Life Decisions

When I was in high school, I had no idea that I wanted to do with my life. College was not something I saw myself doing so I never took my SAT, PSAT, or worried about LSAT prep.

It’s funny how things change! Not long after graduating, I realized that I couldn’t stand to work crummy jobs for the rest of my life. I ended up deciding to pursue my dream of being a graphic designer. I couldn’t be happier with this decision! Why not turn your hobby into your career?

Upgrades? Downgrades?

Have you ever used one of those netbooks? I think they are a really brilliant idea, but I wonder is it hard to adjust to the tiny screen and keyboard? I’m not sure if I would ever get used to it!

My laptop is currently in rough condition. The hard drive is practically full of photos, music, and photoshop files. I’m not sure what I was thinking when I replaced my fried one with one that has such a small capacity. I’d really love to get my own external harddrive rather than replacing it with a larger one. It also needs more ram, PRONTO! I love my little macbook but it sure is struggling these days!
