Property Investment

With the loonie soaring everyday against the US$, this is the best time for the Canadians to invest in American property. For many years, I’ve seen the Americans taking the boat across from Maine and staying in their summer houses here in Nova Scotia because of their high currency. About time, we Canadians go over and invest some of our good/real money over the American soil.

Long Island NY real estate, has a complete listing for Nassau County and the Long Island area as well as the Suffolk and Queens County. With a team of professionals to help you select the best properties and work with you from the viewing to the closing, i’m sure you will find them most efficient and totally reliable. So if you are thinking of investing, like we are and taking advantage of the exchange rate, now is the time.

Blog Hosting

Many of my friends have asked for advice with regards blog hosting and its advantages. And of course everyone wants to know .. what kind of money we are talking about hosting your own blog. As you all know, I’m not very technically inclined nor I am very internet savvy but one thing I know .. and that is very important to me is .. if i have my blog hosted by a reliable web hosting company, I will not fear of losing all my years of writing.. and patiently documenting my daughter’s growth and achievement. Losing all my entry was the greatest fear I had working with a free provider.

For a very small price, you can afford a hosting and design service. Starting at $9.99, for a Movable Type Hosting, which includes, free installation and initial configuration of Movable Type (very, very helpful to woman like me, who knows absolutely nothing about installation and configuration). A step-by-step video tuturial, free upgrades when new versions of MT is released. Helping you to transfer your account from an cPanel host, free account setup and of course they don’t force you to have long-term contracts thus making it so much less stressful for you. They are so efficient that you new blog can be up and running on your own domain name within hours.

So start blogging with a quality host, that is affordable, efficient, flexible and most importantly, willing to help you set up. WordPress hosting starts as cheap as $6.99/month with disk space of 1GB.

Try It Before You Buy It

I know that buying from a jewelry store online can be stressful if you’re not really sure what to expect. With that in mind, I always recommend Adolf Jewelers, the Virginia jeweler with the selection you’d expect from an online store, but with the service you can really only get by going into an actual store. Their selection of designer jewelry and diamond engagement rings is second to none, and the staff there is great at making sure you find the perfect piece for whomever you’re shopping for. Check them out today and I’m sure you’ll be shopping with them for a long time. Relax, they’ll make you happy!

HouseWarming

Our good customer/friend, Miguel just moved into his new home, a much smaller one with his lovely daughter.. and wife. And because the house is alot smaller than the one they used to have, they had to sell away their huge 52″ tv and bought a new plasma tv instead. PB and I thought it was nice to be able to just go out and buy a plasma without even giving any thoughts to the money involved but we know Miguel is RICH.. muahahahha!!

So for their housewarming, we will be getting him a plasma stand, something we know he will use for a long time and will remember us everyday, for who doesn’t watch the tv everyday right. We only want to get gifts that constantly reminds our friends that we are the best. Muahahhaha!!

My Mature Skin

When one is younger, you don’t need to worry too much about anything, especially your skin. But as one becomes older like yours truly, you not only become aware, you can sometimes get paranoid too. Why..?? because you start noticing things on your face and your body that you’ve never noticed before and you know you cannot ignore it, when your your neighbour’s 2 year old ask his mother what are those lines around your eyes.

Yes.. we do all age.. but for me, I want to age gracefully and beautifully. And one shouldn’t be ashamed or afraid.. to let others know that they are using Anti Wrinkle & Anti Aging Skin Care Treatment, afterall, a woman has got to do what they’ve got to do right..? But what I’m seriously more interested in, is the Rejuvawand. It is a light based alternative to botox injections, microdermabrasion, IPL photo rejuvenation and other skin care and anti-wrinkle treatments. I’ve seen my esthetician use this on my face many years ago before coming to Canada.

Mint Credit Card

Mint Credit Cards are so popular in UK that everyone who is a resident of UK and 18 above, will surely benefit from it. Offering you numerous options for your credit card needs, you do not need to look for different cards elsewhere.

But of course credit cards are meant for those using them responsibly and not those who do not want to pay their bills. So if you are looking for a no interest on balance transfer for 13 months, they are definitely where you should go. And the 0% on all purchases till May 2008 that they are offering is too good to refuse especially with Christmas just round the corner. With a credit card that offers so much, I know that I can not only have a good Christmas but also plan to pay everything before May 2008 in order not to be charged with interest like some of the other credit card companies would do. Credit cards are great to have but once again, use them wisely and responsibly and never get into debt for it.

Mexico Vacation Villas

I don’t know if you are aware of how close Mexico is to Canada. Every winter, Canadians goes in drove for their winter vacation around January to Mexico. And the main reason why they keep going back is because they love the people there. Mexico’s Mayan Riviera is an all time favorite vacation spot for both the young and old. And what makes Mayan Riviera unique is everything you need to do is within a short distance.

Vacationing in Mexico, is truly the most memorable because you can choose to do anything you want or just bum around and enjoy the sea and the sun. Get totally relaxed or get totally adventurous, it is entirely up to the individual. And to be really honest with you, it is a perfect vacation destination for the whole family. Even the “out-laws” (parent-in-laws) would appreciate it and you. So if you are vacationing with the whole family, Mexico Vacation Villas, would be something to seriously consider, because all villas are only 15 – 20 mins away from the airport and centrally located for your convenience for any activities that you so wish to do. Not only are these villas huge enough to house the whole family, you get the kind of privacy you can never get in a resort. With private pool and beach front views and all the amenities that beats even the best resort around… like broadband and Tommy Bahama linens.

Staying in a rented villa does not mean that you still have to cook for the whole family and wash up after them during vacation and be left out of all the fun because super-delicious Chef Miguel is here to help..! Try regional Mayan dishes or fresh fish and seafood caught daily and prepared to perfection. From breakfast to dinner, they cater to your needs and shop fresh if possible for you and your family. Whether you want fajitas or pancakes, they will do their best to keep you tummy happy. For a truly enticing, remarkable and memorable vacation, check out Caribbean’s Hotspot, the Mayan Riviera.
