Thanks for the guest post by Jonathan Curtis

We ended up getting good clear internet deals and they are going to be installing it into our new vacation home next week. We have always wanted a beach house and have just gotten to the point where we are going to be able to afford one. My husband and I both love the beach. I wish that we had been able to afford one sooner, but now is a great time because our kids are becoming teenagers and already don’t want to spend their extra time with Mom and Dad. Anything that we can do to get them to “hang” with us is worth it. We have already gotten them to agree to spend the summer at the condo. I am going to stay for the majority of the summer and my husband is going to come every weekend. The kids are going to be allowed to invite a friend or two. The good thing is that it is only about two hours from our house, so it is a very quick and easy drive there. I just can’t wait!

Some Kind of Cupcake for Everyone

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner I’ve been looking for a unique gift to give to my mother on that day since I know my Dad will give her the same old box of chocolates that he gets from Walmart each year. I found a great site that has some pretty interesting varieties of cupcakes, they have something for everyone and I think I will send off for their cupcake sampler since variety is the spice of life and trying a variety is always a fun way to find your favorite(s).

I always buy my mother something on Valentine’s Day, it’s always best to keep on her good side.

Ampeg Portaflex Review

Free Shipping is a big deal when ordering products from catalogues off and online. This can add up to some real savings and who isn’t trying to save a buck here and there these days. After reading the ampeg portaflex review that I found online and doing a bit of research I’ve decided to go ahead and order it for my brother who really wanted a new bass amp head for Christmas but due to be laying off last year he didn’t get it.

His birthday is in February and I only have a short amount of time to come up with something and this sounds like a good deal to me. He is a good guy and if he didn’t have his music I don’t know what he would do at this point.

Important Backup

Online Backup is one of the leading online backup and storage for consumers and their small businesses, for Windows and Mac both. And I have used them in the past and I’m glad to know that they are still around and still improving on their enhancements for backup on the good old Macintosh’s that are still out there running strong.

My first computer was a Mac and I always will have place in my heart for those brilliant machines that I was forced into leaving their use, quite a while back, due to the fact that everywhere that I worked and did any kind of business always used the IBM PC, so in order to keep in business I was forced into the PC world and have gotten used to it of course, but I still miss my Mac, she is tucked away in the basement, poor thing was banished from my home office and sent into the bowels of the household, doomed to a lonely existence along with all of the other outdated and un usefull items that have been discarded.

Whether you have a Mac or a PC, you should check out and see it my going to the website of ibackup.com, you could learn a thing or two and they possibly can help with all of your back up needs of today.

Dress Up Games

My 9 year old niece that I have spoken about in the past, has sent me a reply to my last email to her, and she is full of news about all of the things that she is doing and planning on doing this summer while school is out. She is scheduled to attend a cheer leading camp, in the middle of July and then to go to a sleep away camp in the first week of August.

She has a few friends that she has been going to the local pool with and her folks are planning a beach get-a-way long weekend this up and coming 4th of July holiday. So she seems to be keeping busy, it is a drag for some kids that have nothing to do all summer, that is when trouble can start brewing. Busy hands are happy hands, as my mother always says, and there is a lot of truth to that.

One thing that my niece is very good at is the computer, her folks had her up and running on her own PC at the age of two years old and she knows what she is doing when it comes to email, the Internet, several different programs, and she has tons of software full of games and educational ones also that she enjoys.

In her email she was telling me of one of her favorite web-sites that she and her girlfriends just discovered a few weeks ago which is all about GirlSense Fashion Dress Up Games at a site called GirlSense.com. She tells me that it allows her and her friends to go into different boutiques and purchase virtual fashion items of fashion designers and celebrities like MTV’s The Hills, Savy and Mandy, Mudd and numerous others, that I have to tell you I have no idea who most of these are, but she seems thrilled with them.

I have to say that web-sites like these are really a good thing for these girls, it teaches them so many things that will help them later on in life. And I like that there is more and more things coming out for little girls, most video games really are not geared towards them and there has been a push for more girl oriented games to be available to them and it looks like it is working to some degree.
