I recently discovered a free anti virus download is available from the cyberdefender.com website.  They have a lot of very good software programs designed to protect computers from hackers and viruses. They also have software for identity protection, register cleaners; I’m impressed that they have received good reviews from USA Today and ComputerWorld for their products.

When solar panels first hit the market, they were hailed as a great way to reduce the energy costs for heating and cooling a building, and for generating electricity as well. I’ve always been very interested in learning more about ways that I can make a difference in conservation projects, environmentally friendly projects, and lowering expenses.

So I was very excited about how solar energy was going to actually be a reality in my lifetime, and not just some fantastic imagineering project from the imagineers at the DisneyWorld complex! And I’ve been glad to hear that tax credits have been made available to help the homeowners recover some of the expenses of installing solar powered devices and equipment. However I have been discouraged over the harsh financial reality that in this economy, retrofitting existing buildings with solar panels is probably not going to be high on the priority list of most households. I’d like to see the economy improve as more and more people and companies get behind solar energy.

I’ve been told that in the next few years I am going to need to replace my roof. I’m wondering if that would be a good time to look into installing some type of solar energy system. What do you think?

It seems that stainless steel tile is becoming a very popular way to tile in numerous ways and rooms in homes these days. My sister and her hubby are seriously looking into having some pretty nice looking decorative metal tiles from MetalStainlessSteelTiles.com  to be installed in their recent kitchen make over, that I really am starting to appreciate the look of. I have to say that at first the thought of stainless steel tiles just didn’t set right with my taste, but after looking at the big picture I do believe that it will look pretty darned good.

They have been working on this kitchen make over since the end of the year and they really want to wrap it up and move on to other outside projects that they could be getting into while we are having perfect weather for outdoor projects. I’ve been getting a lot done outside, you have to take this perfect 70 degree weather, with no humidity, while you can. I’m ready to drag out the tiller and get started on tilling our small vegetable and herb garden this weekend.

I have never been more excited in my life than I was the day I quit my job in “Corporate America” to start my own business. I’d had a dream of opening a boutique for years, and I finally just decided one day to go for it. I had enough money saved up to get things off the ground, and I was definitely not scared of working hard. With the excitement also came sheer terror, unfortunately. I had a great idea and good style, so I knew I’d be successful once I got things rolling. The problem was figuring out my first few steps. I am not so great with logistical details, so I recruited a good friend to help me out with the detail work. She was awesome. She helped me secure my storefront, and she quickly got me set up with the essentials like phone and internet. She actually just did a little research on Brooklyn T1 and got a great provider for me. They handle my phone and internet, so it’s one less thing for me to worry about. Now that we have all the little things out of the way, I can’t wait to start running my successful boutique!

This weekend we are expected, once again, to have a great weather weekend, so I’ll be spending time out in the yard as much as possible getting things done that normally wouldn’t even been thought about for another month or so. It has been in the eighties all week long, crazy weather for the middle of March.

I have ordered some irrigation supplies that I need to get the yard ready for. I have wanted to get lawn sprinklers installed for some time now and when I got my tax refund check deposited into my checking account I went online and found just what I wanted and needed and put the order in in just a matter of minutes.

Working out in the yard is something that we take seriously around here. We like having a nice backyard that we can spend good quality time in all year round, which we have basically been able to do with this extreme warm winter weather that we have been blessed with this year. But during the summer we entertain a good bit and it always helps when people can relax and enjoy being out in the yard, front, side and/or back.
