Company Fun with Funny Shirts

Posted by DJ on April 28th, 2010

When I was in the corporate world, I was part of the organizing committee for company outings.  As with most company outings, employees were assigned shirts to wear on the day itself.  Looking back, it would have been more interesting if the employees were in funny t shirts instead of the usual, boring ones with the company’s logo. 

This is something I suggested to my husband who still remains in the same business establishment.  He discussed this with his colleagues at the office when they met to plan for the company outing.  My husband referred them to me.  I helped them search for great shirts on the internet from this exciting online store.  I was constantly in touch with their point person who assisted me with their required sizes and styles. 

There are times when companies invite the employees’ families to their outings.  It will be more stirring to assign funny shirts to families or family groups.  Instead of just assigning colors, designs can be assigned - that was my idea.  Not only will it be easier for them to be identified, the employees will enjoy looking at and reading their co-workers’ shirts.  The shirts can be one great tool for the employees and their families to interact with one another - which is really the point of the outing. Shirts are all ready and have been sent to respective families while my husband gained a lot of compliments about the tees. He told them, “Oh, my wife is the culprit here!”.

Choosing Our Own Galena Lodging

Posted by DJ on April 28th, 2010

Our travel agent told us that if we wanted her to choose one of the Galena inns for us, that she would be happy to. I cannot imagine letting someone else choose what kind of Galena lodging we will be having. I know for a fact, of a really nice little bed and breakfast that I would love to stay at.

I sent our travel agent an email letting her know that I already knew which of the Galena inns I would like to stay at and I gave her the name and number for them also. She let me know that she did not even have them on her list of available Galena lodging but she would add them and also take care of our reservations at the same time.

Reading Up On Local SEO Services

Posted by DJ on April 26th, 2010

I have been reading up on what SEO services, all of the local companies offer and it seems to pretty much be all the same. I know that there is a really big company that has different divisions and each division handles their own part of the SEO services.

I have a friend who used to work for that particular company and she worked in the link building department. She really liked it, but then her husband was transferred and they moved out of the area. She has been trying to find a job where she is now, working for a link building company, but she is not having any luck. I hope that she finds a job very soon that pays just as well as her old one did.

I Was Looking For Storm Doors

Posted by DJ on April 22nd, 2010

I had been looking for just an average set of storm doors and found some wrought iron doors that I just had to have. I was afraid to look at the price, since they looked very expensive. I had my husband look at the price and then when he did not flinch, I knew that I could afford them.

I paid for the wrought iron doors and picked a day during the following week to have them installed, for free no less, and they look fantastic. I am so glad that we decided to go in that store first, before visiting the big home improvement store that would have probably only had normal aluminum storm doors. This has to be one of the best buys that we have ever made for our house and I absolutely love them.

Looking To Sell Structured Settlement Payments Now

Posted by DJ on April 14th, 2010

If I am truly going to sell structured settlement payments to this new company, I am going to have to get my lawyer to look at them and see if he thinks that they know what they are doing. I found them online, but am still not sure how to go about everything. They had me fill out some information, nothing that is too private and I am waiting to hear back from them.

I have two more years, till I will see any money from the structured settlement that I was awarded for an accident. I was so happy with the judge’s decision to award me so much money, that I did not even hear him when he said that it would be in the form of a structured settlement. I left the courtroom so happy and then my lawyer told me that I would not see any of the money for at least three years, but then it would come to me every year after that.

I wanted to go back into the courtroom and redo everything. I cannot understand how a judge awards someone money that is deserving of it and then tells them that they have to wait years to get it. This is why when I found the company that you can sell structured settlement payments to, I was thinking that I really needed to do that.

Loving The Ceramic Floors In The Raleigh NC House

Posted by DJ on April 7th, 2010

I was so excited to find out that the house we were thinking of buying had ceramic floors in all of the bathrooms, the foyer and the kitchen. I had always wanted ceramic floors but had never been able to afford to have them installed. Vinyl stick tiles are currently in my bathrooms, the foyer and my kitchen. They do not clean up as easily as the ceramic does and with four kids and two dogs, you need something that will clean up very well.

The tour through the new house was really exciting. I could see some things that I would like to change and I asked the real estate agent if it would be possible to have a home remodeling Raleigh NC company come through and give my husband and I an estimate of what it would cost to make some changes and then see if the sellers would be willing to pay for it or at least pay for half of the bill.

Our real estate agent told me that she would talk with the sellers and see if they had a particular home remodeling Raleigh NC company that they would rather use since we were going to ask them to pay for the work. I heard back about two days later and the sellers would not agree to pay for any kind of changes, so we have to buy it as is.
