My New French Door

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Just thought I would let you take a peek at my new french door. .that was put up a few days ago. It really does make a difference.. and i donch have to feel guilty at all turning up the heat.. when i wanna watch my chinese shows.. after the brat sleeps.. and i eat my supper and enjoy it without having to shiver.. because without the french door.. we try not to hit up the room.. because it takes 3 heater to heat up the tv room.. the kitchen and the dining room. The open concept . .only works in the summer. Putting the door has it cons.. it makes the tv room look alot smaller.. but if it saves us money in the long run.. why not.

Organizing Your Movie Collection

Many people collect movies.. and where would our business be, if they don’t. We own a video store in town, if you must know. However, having said that, I never watch a movie more than once, but the spouse, loves to watch them over and over again. And his logic was .. he might have missed something when he first watched it.. so he was watching again. So you can see why we do have a collection at home. All his movies.. and never mine. But I also know of some customers.. who have huge collection of movies.. and sometimes, they forget what they bought and what they haven’t.

For folks like them and the ardent movie fan, a Personal Video Database is the best softare that was ever invented. A program that is easy to use, and helps you keep track of your movie collection, plus helps your family pick out movies that you want to watch that evening.

Importing your movies from a spreadsheet is easy as this program does support it and absolutely no stress whatsoever. Editing the details of many movies at one go using their mass plugin is a very using editing tool.

Relaxing Chloe

This trip up to the city, we stayed in a hotel ..and truth be told.. we were quite amused that the brat loved the hotel so much.. she wanted to stay some more. She had so much fun.. in the hotel.. she slept good.. the 2 nites we were there. This is a suite room.. and there is another room.. connected to this room… almost the same size .. with a queen bed too. Chloe slept on her pooh couch.. and i slept in this room.. and PB slept in the next room. The reason why we took this suite was because we were afraid.. that Chloe wouldn’t sleep.. and since PB is the one who is driving long hours.. he needs to get a good rest. So being in the other room.. with a closed door .. would have worked good.. if the brat fussed up. But what do you know.. she didn’t fuss at all.. muahahahhaha!!
