There is some serious tangling going on in the office these days. We added in a bunch of computers and printers and we are getting everything in a tangle. There is Cat 5 everywhere and there looks to be no end in sight for the huge mess that one of us is going to have to go in and redo. With all these additions we are going to be able to do a lot more internet work and we can even get our roommate involved if we ever get one. Then we can get very serious on the money making front with some internet advertising done right. We have made it easy to manage all the accounts with these computer. I had Ern set up each computer with one separate account on each one so they will be easy to manage. There is also a neat little program I had him write so that we can manage the dailies.
I like the new system but the mess has got to go.

If you are looking into a real estate franchise there are so many options that are available to you. We have been looking into some franchising in the area of the country that we want to move to so that we can have our own business to run when we get there. I have been in real estate for a few years now and I love it. I find that working with people is a ton of fun and helping them find what they are looking for in a large purchase like that is really rewarding. I want to get to know the other side of the page though and move into being a real estate agent. That way I will be able to understand the business from both ends. Right now I am the coordinator for putting people into properties. That is great but I want to see how the other side of this whole thing works.

I got a welder a few Christmases ago and this year I am looking forward to getting a plasma cutting tool to compliment my welder. I have always wanted a plasma cutter and this is the year that we are going to treat ourselves to one. We both decided that this year we could only get one high dollar gift for each other and we had to tell the other one what that was ahead of time. Thats safety. So mine is the plasma cutter and his is to buy me the iPhone. I can’t wait to see the look on everyones faces when they see the things we are buying. It’s insane how every year just when you think your bills are going to go down for a few months .. BAM along comes Christmas and all your money is gone in an instant.

We have decided that we need to put our home search on hold until we decide where we are going to live. We were looking on the east side of the country and found some really nice homes in West Virginia and Wilmington NC real estate was pretty good in fitting our needs as well. I want to be closer to the ocean and I really want to be closer to the Atlantic coast. I don’t know if moving that far away from the family is a good idea for us though. We just had the baby so everyone wants us to stay close and come over every weekend. It would be a huge change for everyone if we move that far away. So for now we are putting moving on hold.

In the hunt for the perfect nights sleep we have looked at so many different mattresses and beds. We even thought about one of those fancy adjustable beds for the perfect nights sleep. I think I have narrowed it down to three styles of mattresses and possibly an adjustable bed frame. I would like to get one nights sleep that is uninterrupted and leaves me feeling refreshed in the morning instead of more tired. If only we were millionaires we could try one of those really expensive mattresses that are supposed to leave you feeling so great in the morning. For now we will continue the search and try and figure out how we can save a little each week until we can afford the one that we want.
