Internet business

Advent — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 00:23:09 +0000

Matt is looking into using authorize.net for the websites the he builds for businesses. We were using another internet pay system but we think it is time for an upgrade. Having to manage two accounts is getting a little out of control so we are going to consolidate into one and hopefully everything will go smoothly.

Still searching for a cure

Advent — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 23:02:48 +0000

Michaela started a new acne treatment the other day. We are hoping this one will work for her. She does not have it bad but it is enough to aggravate her, you know. With her working now and being looked at by the public on a daily bases she is now more aware of her appearance. She is a beautiful girl, I think she is over critical of herself.

Job hunting

Advent — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 22:59:51 +0000

Now that we have made the decision to move I am looking at all of the job boards and I see there are a lot of San Francisco jobs out there. We are moving to LA but we have a friend in San Francisco and he said a couple of years ago the pickings were very slim. I guess the market is turning, that is good news for me because it should make it easier to land a job once we get out there.

Friend with a travel agency

Advent — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 19:13:32 +0000

I can’t wait until she plans one for Hawaii. I am hoping that we get to go there again this summer. Matt’s company is talking about putting a trip together maybe this time we will take on of those European cruises. We love to travel around to different places and now that we all have passports it would be easier to just pick up and go.

Shoes that help you burn calories

Advent — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 17:31:06 +0000

Have you heard about MBT shoes? They are a new shoe that helps you with your posture and relieves the strain on your back and hips you feel when wearing regular shoes. From what I have read and watched these shoes make you feel like you are walking on a beach in the sand. It frees your foot up to stretch out completely and you have to balance yourself with every step you take. If you are looking for a “new” type of shoe, check these out. They are really interesting.

Matt in Miami

Advent — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 23:03:02 +0000

Matt had to go out to Miami last weekend so when he got back he has surprises for all of us. I was looking at all of the Guess watches while we were in Asia but I could never find one that I really liked. Well, my surprise from Miami was a really cool watch. I was so happy because I though I looked at all the ones Guess made but I evidently not because Matt got me a really nice one. Lani was happy because it looked like Daddy held up the Disney store. LOL She was so excited to see Mickey, Pooh, Tigger and Nemo, she sleeps with all of them at night now.

Vacation for next year

Advent — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 22:58:35 +0000

We are already thinking about vacation for next even after spending 2 weeks in Asia. In fact Matt mentioned it on the plane ride back from Asia. We are kind of looking at Vegas vacations but more than likely we will go back to Hawaii. I am hoping that when we make the move out to LA, Vegas will be something we do. I would love to go out there and go to the strip and see the giant screen you walk under out there. I bet it is so amazing.

Teenage years

Advent — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 17:06:02 +0000

Our middle daughter is still dealing with teenage acne. We are looking into new acne treatments because of the harsh chemicals in the once you buy over the counter. She has sensitive skin so the ones over the counter tend to make her skin very dry and painful and it looks even redder than it did before she put the “treatment” on. She just started 8th grade so now she is more aware of how she looks and the fact that more people are looking at her.

The end of summer and the end of wolf spiders

Advent — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 22:38:08 +0000

I hate summer at my house for some reason we have these wolf spiders, I don’t know if that is the technically term for them but that is what everyone over here calls them because they will charge you if you threaten them. It is really scary and they are huge and they jump. Anyway we though we were going to have to get some spider traps this year because I was tired of it. Oh did I mention they like the ceiling so when you walk in a room you will see those huge things on the ceiling. We don’t have many of them about 4-5 per year but that is 4-5 too many for me. We were going for most of July so we did not have to deal with them and my in-laws did not say anything about them so I guess they did not come out this year. Thank goodness.

Anniversary Gift

Advent — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 18:23:31 +0000

My anniversary is in a couple of weeks and Matt is going to get me a EEE PC. I am so excited. I already have one notebook computer but this one sounds cool too. These little things are so neat, you can just pop them in your bag and with the wireless Internet you can always stay connected. Hopefully it will allow me to make more post for your guys. Sometimes life can get so busy you need all of the tools you can get to help manage it all. If you have a EEE PC please leave us a comment and let us know what you think about it.
