One of the things about all of the ways to garner inspiration is that real life is almost always a disappointment now. Even though I’m a renter, I still know what kind of home I want to buy. I also know that the mix of styles that I love so much probably doesn’t exist in real life.
This is one reason I love the idea of a custom home. I was browsing around the site for Franky & Associates Architect INC and there were so many beautiful inspirations. I love the look of a wood paneled library and they’ve done it. I also love archways and court yards and they’ve done that too. I could also cross a spiral staircase off my list. This Custom Home Architect has been in business for the past 16 years. A custom home will be the only way to get exactly what I have in mind.

I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t know a lot about solar panels. I was looking through a site today that is called “solar is made easy” and that’s all changed. I just needed someone to break it down for me. The site has a lot of info for UK installations but I still learned a lot that applies to my life here.
You can get quotes from up to five services. You just need to know about the time your house was built and how many rooms your house has. This type of green energy is available at many different price points. The site even goes over the “Green Deal” and talks about how to get grants for this project. It also includes the savings you can expect to get on your current energy bills and what the British will save on both the Export tariff and Generation tariff.
Thanks to this site I learned the difference between solar electricity and solar heating. I was shocked to see the savings per month the site quoted. I love the idea of using it for a pool. The first question I always ask whenever someone has a pool at their home is whether or not it’s heated. I’d never considered how expensive heating this would be. The site definitely got me thinking more about my energy consumption.

We were talking last night about what to do with our tax money when we get it. We are going to get a pretty good check this year since we bought a house and had a baby. Of course my idea was an all inclusive trip to Mexico and relive our honeymoon. While it was tempting, my husband said now that we are parents we need to make more responsible decisions with our money. He thinks we need to get ADT Anderson. I hadn’t even thought about it but once we started talking about it I realized how much we do need that. I mean if our family is the most important thing to us, shouldn’t we be doing everything we can to protect it? So we called about getting information and they were so nice. They gave us all of our options and we are going to think about it and figure out exactly what we want! I guess it is better if we save the vacation for when our kid is a little older and can actually enjoy playing in the sand.

Of all of the traditions that I miss from my youth I definitely have to say that the idea of Easter Baskets tops my list. I miss all of the fun pastel colors and small trinkets. Of course we still tend to get Christmas and birthday presents as we get older; but Easter seems to be a forgotten holiday for adults.
This is why I was so excited to see the selection offered at Gourmet Gift Baskets. There are candy and stuffed animal baskets for kids. However, there’s also a selection for adults as well that has dark chocolate and wine, or even packs of gum. In some cases even the “basket” itself is useful by being a watering can. I’m so glad that someone is bringing back the idea of baskets for everyone.
