Learn From Your Mistakes

Blog Prompt: Has anyone ever made a mistake that you promised yourself to never make? Did you keep your promise to yourself?

Oh, I have made many mistakes in my life and learned from them.

Like, never plug something into the wall and your hand is wet.  Read a recipe correctly and not use sweetened condensed milk instead of  evaporated milk to use in tuna casserole and there are many more.  

But, I have to agree with my blog friend Pat, that my biggest promise was not to let myself go, keep exercising and watch what I eat.  I have too many things I want to do in this world and being physically fit and able to get around is one of them.  Also, not having good genes with heat attacks and strokes will keep your mind in the right place for sure.  Menopause has really taken a tole on my body and there are some pounds that I need to get rid of for sure.

One other thing I promised myself was that if hair color comes in a box, it would be on my hair.  I just can’t let myself go gray yet.  Maybe in my 60’s, but not now.  That makes me feel older than anything else.

Learn from your mistakes so you don’t repeat them in the new year.

Owner Financed Homes

The economy is making a slow come back and right now is the perfect time to buy cheap real estate.  But, you ask yourself. What is a good way to acquire a home at a great price? Have you ever thought about  Owner Financed Homes?  Owner financing is when a landlord agrees to lease a home to a tenant and the tenant has an option to buy the home for a pre-negotiated price before the end of the lease.  We have done this with a couple of our rental properties and then the tenant eventually purchased the home. Works out great, especially if you don’t have the down payment at that time.

OwnerFinancingListings.com is the perfect website to find Owner Financing property in your area.  One of the best listing sites I’ve seen in a long time.  All you do is put the name of the city and state, how much you want to spend and bedrooms.  So easy and very user friendly!!  All the years my husband and I were flipping homes, we would look in the local paper and talk to our real estate agent.  This website would’ve helped tremendously in our search all those years ago.

I tried this in my area and I had no idea of all the homes in a price I would want to spend.  Ton’s of information and pictures of each property to help you find that perfect property.  This is the best website to find your next home at a great price.

Our Babysitter

Blog Prompt: When your parents would go out what would you do?

My brother and I only had babysitters a few times, because we had grandmas that lived close. And I don’t recall doing anything way out there and we were always good with our babysitter or grandmas. If not, we knew the consequences when my parents came home.

I do remember our babysitter while we lived in Hawaii that was really fun and she played games with us and was always nice. I would dress up and we would play house or dolls. I wish I could remember her name. But, that was back in the 60’s and my mind can’t recall that for some reason.

Antivirus Software for Your Business

I have a small online business, which is growing and I am receiving many more emails now or have to search the internet for supplies and other items.   My computer is becoming a very big part of my business.  If it wasn’t for great Security software, my computer would be down a lot.  And if my computer is down, my business is down.

I have used anti-virus software for many years now, but I’m considering changing to new software because my old software is really slowing down my computer.   Malware protection is very important to me and if its caught and deleted, it will keep my computer running smoothly.  Other considerations when searching for a good anti-virus software is data protection and encryption software.  I have friends who haven’t had a good anti-virus software and have seen them pay hundreds of dollars to have their computers either replaced or worked on by techs.  I don’t have time for that and would rather pay a fraction of that for really good protection from the beginning for my small business.

All of this can be found with Sophos software and  is rated among some of the best security software out there and is perfect for your small business or enterprise.  Product demos, free trials, free tools and web seminars are what Sophos offers its customers to make sure the have the best possible customer service.

And their blog is the best for finding out some great information.  I just read their article about email Christmas card scams.  Interesting read and something I didn’t know was going around.  Many great articles to read.

Let Sophos help your business stay secure and online with worries of malware and other security problems.
