Long Hours
The Author of this post is Solomon Dejesus
The industry that I work in is very high stress. I frequently work long hours, and combined with the fact that my commute is twenty five miles each way, I am away from home for very long periods of time. If I have plans with friends after work, I’m barely home before I have to turn around and start the next day. It’s not an ideal way to live, but I’ve decided I can live with it for now. It’s good experience to have and it can be lucrative, so I keep plugging away. Plus, let’s be honest, I like nice handbags. My hands are kind of tied, is the point. The worst part about the long hours is leaving my house unattended for so many hours each day. While I live in a nice neighborhood is a very safe city, no one is safe from all crime. Additionally, there is always the chance that there could be a fire. Luckily, I have adt Hollywood and don’t have to give the well-being of my house a second thought. If something does happen, my alarm monitoring company calls to alert me right away. Knowing that my house is being monitored allows me to keep sane while I’m working in my crazy high stress job
repair my credit now

I have been trying to get a credit card for the last couple of months. I keep getting denied so I have been looking into using a credit repair service. The one that I have decided to go with is pr.com they have the best reviews online. All the information I have been able to find says they not only fix your credit but it does not take that long for them to do it.
They started the company in 1997 the way they work is to help you pay off your bad debt and then they work on clearing up inaccuracies in your credit reports. They work to verify that all of the information is 100% accurate and if it’s not they delete the bad information.
They will help you with bankruptcies, tax liens, judgments, slow payments, charge-offs, foreclosures as well as accounts that have gone to collections. So if you have had any issues like these I would suggest checking out there site at pr.com and start working on fixing your credit score so you can get back up into the 700s since that is an amazing credit score.
Moving here was really tough for me and it’s taken a long time to get used to the place. I love Texas from afar but living here is a totally different story! It took me forever to understand what people were talking about until I realized it was because I couldn’t understand their accents! I also had a hard time getting the food stuff down because I’m a vegetarian and it’s hard for me to go into a restaurant that only serves giant slabs of beer. I went to www.TexasElectricityProviders.com when I first got here to get my electricity set up and then I had to figure out all the new tax stuff since they don’t have income tax here. There are a lot of changes that come with being here but I consider myself pretty adaptable so I think at the end of the day I’m going to be fine. Life here is good and it’s nice having such a good job so I’m going to keep on keeping on here in Texas!

I was looking online for some kind of gift to get for a lady and I got to this page: http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Women/Original-Scrubs/ I know you are thinking from the link that this is for the kind of scrubs you would clean your skin but these are the medical kind. I was thinking some of these look really nice. It would be a nice gift for a lady. If nothing else they would be nice to wear around the house or something like that. The site even does custom made scrubs that way you can get your lady something that is unique to her alone.

My Griddle Broke

My Classic Griddle Broke, it was my grandparents it was really nice. It was 24 inches long by 12 inches wide and about an inch thick. It would cook anything. I know have to replace it. I'm looking at ordering this griddle Bayou Classic 7428 28" Cast Iron Reversible Griddle (See all Griddles) Its 28" inches by 16" so it should work really well, I don’t know if I would use the grill side since we don’t cook a bunch of meat but you never know what might happen. I used my grandparents mostly for fajitas and other grilled vegetables as well as pancakes eggs and hash browns.
River Marked (Mercy Thompson, Book 6)

I saw Patricia Briggs about a year ago at a Powells Book signing event. I ended up reading Silver Borne in one night. I'm so excited I'm thinking I need to call into work so I can read this as soon as its in my grubby little hands. As you can see below she is coming back on March 8th. Unfortountily I dont have anyone up here this year to hold a set for me like I did last year. I would not only have to call in Sick but I would also have to leave work early so I can get a good site. Its about an hour out to Cedar Hills from my work and then an hour back.
Patricia Briggs
In River Marked (Ace), the sixth book in Patricia Briggs's bestselling fantasy series, car mechanic and shapeshifter Mercy Thompson senses that an evil is stirring in the depths of the Columbia River — one that her father's people may know something about. And to have any hope of surviving, Mercy and her mate, the Alpha werewolf Adam, will need their help.
I never realized how hard it is to review a book. I have been trying to do this, since I have been reading more over the last couple of month. I have an account on Goodreads.com and when I go to write something about a book I finished I find it is hard to remember the exact details of what I liked about the book except that it was good had some adventure or romance or something in it that really made me smile or cringe when something important happened. I was thinking I could write notes well I’m reading but that I think would detract from the experience. I do have a Kindle and it has a notes feature on it but I have never used it before. I’m going to have to give this some thought on how to take notes. I was thinking when I'm done reading for the night I should write a couple of paragraphs of what really struck me as important. I don't want to be one of those people that writes a review that is full of spoilers.

Winter Trip to Seaside
Written by Administrator
Monday, 14 February 2011 00:24
On February 4th we drove out to the coast to speed the weekend and try out some restaurants that we had heard about. The original plan was to go out to Nancy & Jamilla's for lunch they are about eleven miles north of long beach. That did not work out they way we had planned we thought they closed at 3pm but they really close at 2:30 so we missed lunch. We did end up buying some cheese and crackers to have in our hotel room that night.
So after missing lunch we drove towards Seaside where we would end up spending the weekend in one of there king rooms with a Jacuzzi. I have to say the first night that we used it was really nice. The room was a little older but for the amount of business they get in the summer months I can forgive the run down feel of the room. Everything was really nice and the sound of the ocean at night made up for anything that most people would have complained about.
On Saturday morning we ended up walking around Seaside and ended up have lunch at Norma’s its been there forever but we had never stopped in because it looks like a place that only retired people would eat at. The color scheme of the building never made us think to eat there before. As you can see from the Crab Cocktail picture this place should be one of your top two places to stop when you are in seaside.We ended up having the Crab Cocktail and some Claim Chowder the chowder was amazing it was almost all claims and very little filler like potatoes also it was not so much cream that you felt like you where stuffed full of fat. Later on we ended up going to a wine ba called Yummy they had the best Tuna Tartar that we have had in ages. It was like a mix of mexican and asian flavors. As you can see I was so excited that I did not even think to take a picture until after we had started to try it. The house wine was a really nice complement to the dish.
That night (Saturday) we drove all the way back up to Ocean Park to have dinner at Nancy & Jamilla's. I have to tell you that if you want to eat anywhere on the coast this is the place to do it. Its AMAZING we had the pan fried Halibut and the seafood pasta. Both of the dishes were out of this world, the ambiance of the restaurant is like a country store that serves food, it was amazing how busy they were for dinner in the winter. There was not an empty table in the house the whole time we where there. Once a table was cleared off a new group was seated. The service is pretty fast so you are not waiting long for your food.
We had to check out of the hotel on Sunday so we decided to go down to Canyon Beach and walk along the ocean for awhile. This was a good plan we just did not expect the rain to be so bad. After walking for about 45 minutes we walked into town and went to Bills Tavern to have a beer and get warm by their fireplace. It was a good thing we did since we where dripping wet from the rain. The beer was amazing!!
In conclusion you really should explore the Washington & Oregon coast in the winter months you have almost the whole place to yourself and if you are interested in trying new things you have the opportunity without having to wait for reservations.

Carolyn MacCullough - Always a Witch
Written by Administrator
Thursday, 10 February 2011 16:50
I just finished reading Carolyn MacCullough “Always a Witch” I have to say that I really enjoyed this book as well as the whole series. For a YA series it really catches you and holds on. Tamsin the main character in the series is a believable if a little neurotic in some ways makes you root for her. You want to see her succeeded in her exploits even if at times you groan because you know what she is about to do is only going to make things worse in the long run. But the story really pulls you in and does not let go. The world is very vivid, I really like that when reading a book since it makes it easier to see what is happening in your mind’s eye. This series of books really nails all the intrigue of a teenager’s life. By this I mean the interactions with friends and family members and how sometimes they play off of how they think people will react to their actions.
I have recommended this series to friends and family as well as strangers at work that I have seen reading other paranormal / sci-fi series. Overall I would give this series 4 stars!

We are going to be going to sea side for our birthdays. Since we are only five days apart we figure its the best thing to do. We are thinking to go to Seaside and then down to Cannon Beach. It shoudl be a great weekend away. If we can we would like to get a room over looking the beach since its winter and there should be some good wave action. Plus its nice to listen to the ocean at night.
So after missing lunch we drove towards Seaside where we would end up spending the weekend in one of there king rooms with a Jacuzzi. I have to say the first night that we used it was really nice. The room was a little older but for the amount of business they get in the summer months I can forgive the run down feel of the room.
