I Love Wii!

I went to visit my sister and her husband over New Year's, and I asked specifically if I could play their wii. I had never played wii before, and I was dying to do it. They said sure, and we did one night. I am in love with the tennis game! I made my avatar and everything. It looks like I did in 9th grade, but that is the closest I could come. We also played bowling, but that was not as fun. I would love to get my own wii and some wii accessories. It is now on the list.

Safeguarding My Important Computer Data

Now that I am a lawyer, I really need to safeguard my online data. I have had computer crashes before and have lost all my information. That was bad enough when it happened in school, but now that could be disastrous. You have to safeguard your clients' data--to lose it would be unthinkable. I am thinking about looking into online backup--I hear that is the easiest and is also affordable.

Need Filtered Water

I am tired of buying bottled water, and also there is the problem of the plastic bottle waste. I know you cn recycle, but why buy them to begin with? I alternate between bottled water and drinking out of the tap. I hear our tap water is fine to drink, but who really knows? I would rathe try to find to filter some water 4396710. If I bought some kind of contraption to filter the water, it would save money on buying bottled water and buying it in plastic.

Employment Wake-Up Call

Even though I have a very good job now, I have been looking to the future and what do I want to do with my law degree. Now that I am starting to look around out there, I see how very dismal it is. Of course, I have known that for some time. The stories of people getting laid off and no jobs to be found. The few companies that are hiring don't have many jobs and none for new attorneys. At least I have a job until I want to find another one. Chin up--it is a waiting game.

Our Company Needs Spruced Up!

I think a nice looking office can help employee motivation and production. Our office is so dated--it needs a major overhaul. In this economy though, I doubt the boss will spring for new office furniture and appointments. He didn't even do that when business and the economy was booming! But it does need a facelift--kind of depressing actually.

Updating Insurance

I was looking at some ads for life insurance today and saw that there are some companies that offer life insurance no medical exam options. That is a good deal. Then you don't have to worry about getting denied. I guess some people might even have medical problems that they don't know about until that medical exam. So, that is the way to go, I think.

Playing In The Basement

I have only had one basement in my life, and that was at my Meme's and Pepe's house. I lived with them the first eight years of my life, and I loved it there. I loved the basement--it was finished out and contained my Pepe's office, the laundry room, an empty room where the water heater was, and the great room, where all of my toys were. I would ride my bike throughout the basement. So much fun! I remember they would run a basement dehumidifier down there. I miss that house, and Iwould love so much to buy it back.
