Rambling On

Busy time of year

So you’re all probably wondering where I’ve been the past few days. Well… I’ve been around just not online. My husband purchased some maxim lights so we’ve been busy doing a little renovating. And we’ve been spending a lot of time with the children this holiday season. We were both able to get a few days off from our regular jobs so I decided to take some time off from my online jobs as well. But the holiday season is almost over so I guess it’s back to work for both of us. So if you’ve missed me this past few days, have no fear, I’m back!

Merry Christmas to all!

Searching for a new insurance company

So once again my insurance policy is almost ready to be renewed. Every year at this time I have to renew all my policies so I usually spend a few days researching different companies to see if I can get a better rate. So I’ve decided once again to spend the time doing this. If I can save a few extra dollars by switching over to Blue Advantage insurance then why not. So I’m going to start checking out some different sites here on the Internet and maybe I can find something that will suit my needs at a much more affordable rate.

One week to go

There’s only one week left until Christmas. How close are you all to being ready for the big day? I’m almost done everything and am extremely pleased with myself. I’m normally the person who is running around at the last minute trying to get things all tidied up. But not this year. By the end of the weekend I will be done every thing that needs to be done and will be able to relax next week with the family.

New computer

So as I stated in a previous post, my husband’s computer died. Well for once in his life he actually listened to me. The day after his computer died he came home with a new one with some really neat portable speakers. I think he’s actually glad his old one died because the one he ended up purchasing is a lot nicer than his old one. And because of the time of year it is he got it for a really nice price. So I am extremely happy to report that I don’t have to share my computer!

Stuck inside today

It’s turning out to be one miserable day. First my husband got called into work on his weekend off and man is he ripping. And now as I sit here on my computer and look out my kitchen window all I see is a massive amount of snow falling. So… I guess I’m stuck in the house all day today. I had plans to go out and get a few things done today and that doesn’t look like it’s going to happen. So I guess I’ll just stay home, sit on my computer and check out some term life insurance quotes. Nothing better to do today.

Santa’s workshop

My son does something pretty neat for the kids at Christmas time. They hold a Santa’s workshop for the children. This gives the kids the opportunity to shop for their relatives and purchase them small gifts. Well my son had a blast at Santa’s workshop. He bought a present for me, his sister and his father. He looked for something for his grandfather and his wife but said all he could see were ties and figured his grandfather’s wife wouldn’t get much use out of those. So… he had fun, bought his gifts and is extremely happy with his purchases.

Cooked computer

My husband is not a happy camper these days. Last night he came home from work and turned on his computer and… it broke. Mind you the computer is four years old and he has gotten his money’s worth out of it. But the timing right now is just bad. I tried to talk him into buying a new computer but I don’t know if he is going to. If not I guess for a little while I’ll have to share mine. Oh man, I hope he buys a new one.

You get what you pay for

Well I guess the old saying really is true. You do indeed get what you pay for. About six months ago I spent $14 on a pair of sneakers for work and thought I got a really good deal. Well…. apparently I didn’t. After six months they sprung a leak and I’m not able to wear them any longer. I guess I should have invested in some koolaburra boots instead. So… on top of everything else I have to purchase this time of year, I now need to go find myself a new pair of sneakers for work.

Trying to increase page rank

About three years ago I lost all page rank on this blog and still to this date can’t manage to get any page rank back. I have tried all sorts of things like utilizing directory submission websites but nothing seems to help. I really don’t know what more I can do to try to increase my page rank.

So I guess my question to you all is how do you manage to increase your page rank and keep it? Do you have any secrets you’d like to share with me? I’d be extremely pleased if you could share any of your methods.
