Getting Some Stability

Guest post written by Derick Burks

I have moved so many times in the last few years that I can’t even remember all of the cities I have lived in. I work for a restaurant chain that sends me to cities to open new locations. I stay in the new cities from the point where we lease the commercial space, to the point where the staff is hired, the restaurant is open, and everything is going smoothly. In the more problematic locations I could be there for nine months to a year. At a location where the restaurant opens without a hitch, it usually takes four to six months. I am glad that my employeris finally giving me the chance to stay in Nashville for a few years. They want me to manage one of our busier locations that has had some problems lately, and it is a more permanent position. I am excited, and have already found a house. Now I have to get things ready so I can move in. I have already looked into tennesse home security and have an idea of what I need. Now I just need to connect my cable, internet, and phone and I should be good to go.

Bajulimports Pandora Jewelry

I had to admit my curiousity when I ran across “bajulimports pandora jewelry“. So I took the time to go take a peek. I was pleasently suprised. Now I will tell you that when I was “window shopping” on their website, I did not pay a bit of attention to prices, so I can’t tell you if they are really expensive or not. But I can tell you that I liked their stuff.

San Francisco Drug Alcohol Rehab Treatment Center

There are many things that irritate me, one of which would be things like “san francisco drug alcohol rehab treatment center“. Does anyone else see a problem with that title? NO CAPITALS!!!!!! At the very least San Francisco should be capitalized because it’s a proper noun. Has no-one bothered to teach people nowadays that proper nouns are capitalized??

Well, that’s my beef for the day. What’s yours??

Microphone

A couple of years ago I bought one of those kareoke microphones that plug into the t.v. I suppose I should have known that it wouldn’t be anything special, but I must admit that I was rather disappointed in the quality. I was looking for something that would aid the girls in their singing interest, and that just didn’t help at all, because the sound quality was very poor.

Snowboard Jackets

Living here in Kansas, I’ve often thought of buying the family some of those snowboard jackets, or ski jackets in hopes that they would keep us warm. I’ve had difficulty in buying coats that don’t fall apart five minutes after you buy them, or that actually keep you warm. I suppose it’s the wind in Kansas that has a lot to do with whether the coat doesn’t it’s job or not.

Rocky Patel

Growing up with a name like “Rocky Patel” wasn’t easy, especially if you were a girl! But then, life had never been easy for Rocky, so the name didn’t make much difference one way or the other. In fact, Rocky figured if you didn’t like her name, then you didn’t have much business hanging out with her, because being “Rocky” was who she was.

Gold Chains

I’ve had trouble for years finding decent gold chains that don’t break if I look at them. Suprisingly enough the one chain I have that seems unbreakable was not at all expensive. It holds the keys to my heart. *LOL* Seriously the chain has two little keys on it, and the keys have the birthstones of my two girls on it.

GOOD HELP IS HARD TO FIND

Thanks for the post, Vernon Lowe

After our wonderful housekeeper, Tilly, who worked in our home for fifteen years retired last May, I had a horrible time trying to find a new one. I checked with every cleaning service in town. Not one of the cleaning services offered the type of cleaning and tidying that I needed done in the house everyday. They would offer weekly cleanings and charged a ton of money. One service I contacted said that cleaning for two hours a day would be two hundred and fifty dollars… who can afford that?! I went through referrals from friends and family. It made me nervous having people in my home and knowing my alarm code. I got in touch with our company maryland home security. They told me about a feature of my home security system that I did not know about. The keypad for the system can hold several different alarm codes. My family and I use the master code. When I have a housekeeper in my home, I have them use a temporary code. The temporary codes can be cancelled at anytime and also changed at anytime. It makes me feel like our home is safer.

Military Challenge Coin

I hadn’t heard of anything like the military challenge coin until I went and looked at a certain website. I have to say that the website was pretty awesome, as was the idea of having special coins made for just about any occasion. Businesses can have some made with their emblems to use as coupons or some such thing. It’s a nifty idea if I do say so myself.

Welding Equipment

I remember when my Dad used to do some welding. He never had much if any of the welding equipment but used some at a college or school or something. I remember that he took a welding class or two, and I remember that he welded together a stock rack for the pickup we had back then.

And that is the extent of my welding knowledge. *LOL*
