We’re now fully relocated to California … still fixing up, setting up and such, so I thought I’d just share with you a bit of what I’ve been doing on the outside to fix up the remodeled home that we bought.

After we made the move, I shopped heavily at mailboxandbeyond.com. They offer a whole world of address plaques / plates, pretty mailboxes, garden hose holders, bird baths, bird feeders, sun dials, door knockers, door bells, outdoor decorative laterns, and just about any other external house beautification fixtures that you can imagine.

For our address plaque, I got a large estate-size one for our driveway, and another standard one that I placed on the wall at the side of the house. mailboxandbeyond.com is highly recommended in my book, so if you’ve got outdoor beautification needs, from address signs to personalized doormats, be sure to check ‘em out.

Also, browse their site fully before you purchase … just so you don’t miss something really cool that you might want/need; and also check out their discount coupons page. Enjoy!

Another reason you haven’t heard much from me lately, is because I was moving … all the way across the country to California. It wasn’t the smoothest of moves; quite a few moves, but I decided to do a post about the one aspect of the move that went very well. I’m a television junkie, I’ve got to have my hundreds of channels to flip through continuously, and Direct TV is my preferred provider.

As we were about to move, I was very worried that I’d have significant downtime at my new house, as we figured out where/who to get DIRECTTV service from. Thankfully, I searched the web and came across a website that cuts to the chase, and helps you to find The Best in High-Definition TV, Sports Channels and Packages, Digital Video Recorder Service options, Premium Movie Channel options, international channel options and more – and most importantly, you can do this for any state. The website is DirectSatTV.com.

My focus was on California, but wherever you need Direct TV Satellite, there are some good options for you, and DirectSatTV.com will help you to find them. So if you’re a television junkie like me and planning to move to another state, fear not about Direct Tv downtime … what’s your take though on television service providers in your area? Please feel free to post your feedback below.

I know you haven’t heard from me in awhile, but its been a bit hectic, and I was also just taking a hard life easy, as I was traumatized by a home invasion that happened to a close friend recently. With that said, I’d strongly advise all and sundry to secure your home and family by getting an ADT Security System.

ADT has been around since the 1800s, and is a top-rated supplier electronic security systems. For just around $1 per day, you can have an ADT-monitored home security system that will help to keep you safe from break-ins, home invasions and other similar breaches. A home alarm is a worthwhile investment because it is a very effective deterrent against your home being broken into.

That aside, you need to be aware at all times, and be wary too. Don’t leave keys in doors or lying carelessly around. Don’t leave certain windows or doors unlocked. Try not to let too many persons be aware of your movements (for e.g. if you plan to be out of town). Report suspicious looking persons or activity in your neighbor. Stay in close contact with your neighbors …. form an alliance of sorts. These are among the important steps that you can take to stay safe and secure your home.

Most importantly, consider getting ADT security. They are worth the financial outlay due to their effectiveness in preventing crime.

Okay, so I’m still busy obsessing about redecorating the house, getting new furniture, and just about anything and everything to get more of the cool jazzy feeling that I’ve gotten from previous purchases and changes around the house. As you prob know if you’ve been keeping up with me, I’ve tried a few online furniture stores with good results, but now I know that the best modern furniture option yet is eroomservice.com. They offer EVERYTHING that’s hip and cool – from modern bedroom furniture (including an awesome platform bed), to amazing living room sets, kids room stuff and tons more!

Naturally, being a little self-obsessed, I checked out their extensive offering of mirrors – they’ve got really nice floor mirrors, cool fly mirrors, freestanding mirrors by Doimo and some nice ones for your dresser as well. If you’re looking to have a cool new look for the summer in a particular room or all over the house, be sure to check out eroomservice.com. Have a great 4th of July!

I’ve been focusing on the kids’ room … moving stuff around, hanging a few things, and since they’re all into outdoor sports, I considered getting them some cool looking lockers for their bathroom. I thought finding lockers for sale would be tough, but I found the perfect solution – modular lockers. Check out the pic of what I am getting below. It’s a silver-colored modular locker with a window

I’m getting through morelockers.com. They offer a world of locker solutions – from standard lockers to stadium lockers to locker benches. Their prices are low (I searched and compared at a few places) and their selection of locker options seems unparalleled, carrying all the top manufacturers of lockers, as well as the latest styles and colors. Be sure to check ‘em out if you’re trying to be creative (as I was) or if somehow you’re in the need for lockers for your business.
