I love Florida! Not only because the Flint airport flies direct and saves us a lot of money, but it is warm. Here, it is so freaking cold all of the time. That is Michigan for you though. Last year, instead of some type of orlando vacations, we choose to go on a Jacksonville/Cocoa Beach vacation. Orlando is nice, but the water was just calling my name. I think we will be going back to Orlando, maybe this year or the next year. Great inland vacation spot in Florida!

People are borrowing from their life insurance to pay their bills it seems. The tough economy has made people want to take funds from their life insurance even more than usual. While this might seem strange, it is often where people have the most liquid capital. They can trade the life insurance into the bank and the bank gives them a value, oftentimes somewhat less than what it is worth so that the individual can have the cash.

I was considering going to Australia next year. However, when I found out about all of the craziness, I began to rethink my plans. First off, you need a passport. I have one of those already, went to France in 2007. However, you might be subject to an international background check and you also need a Visa to enter Australia. That just seems like a lot of information needed to visit the country of Australia. Crikey Mate! The U.S. doesn’t even ask for that much info!

The main problem around here is that everything costs money. You have to buy gas to drive anywhere, you need money to go to the movies, and basically pretty much any fun activity is charged for. Luckily, there are ways that you can spend time and money that are not as bad. For one, you can find cheap fitness equipment on Craigslist or even enroll at a local gym. There is always walking, but after a while that gets boring too. Try to find new people to hang out with, they can give you plenty of great stories!

No, this is not the show that was made popular by Bob Vila.  This is my house that is extremely strange.  It was built back in the year of our lord 1969 and has a central vacum in it.  This means that you can turn on the central vacuum motor and hook up the hose to the outlets in each room to vaccum the entire house. While this may of been nice then, it looks ugly as heck now, why did they ever think these things would catch on?

When I was driving through the rich people’s subdivision I could not help but think about all the women in old fashioned times who kept themselves up for men who really did not love them. I thought about how they had to wear those terrible corsets and things like that which would keep them so skinny that it would hurt for them to have to breathe. I am so happy that our society has moved on to something so much less barbaric. We are now allowing the same opportunities for everyone, regardless of gender.

Have you ever had the inkling to drive through the rich people’s subdivision at Christmas time?  That’s exactly what I did with some of my friends this evening.  We saw some of the most spectacular Christmas lights out there.  Some people had everything from the doorbell to their wall sconce decorated. It was purely amazing to see so many Christmas lights with such a bad economy. I was surprised that there were as many as there were!

I was just thinking about what to do with my Christmas bonus.  It is a festive time of year, so I thought I might look into buying something…well festive.  Then I thought, why not buy something that would produce good memories for me all year round.  My dad loves Pomegranate trees and I was able to find an affordable one online. So I think that’s what my Christmas bonus will go towards, a Pomegranate tree.

Winter is fast approaching folks. You know what that means, the dreaded white stuff is going to be falling and a lot of it is going to be falling soon! Well, if you have a car that is worth any good amount and you do not have a garage to put it in, you want to make sure you have a car cover to protect your car from the snow. If you don’t yet have one check out these car covers.
