Dollar Billz With Less Effort Please

I have had another exhausting day, and I am ready to curl up, go to bed, and not wake up till the weekend. Only I cant do that because I need to get up tomorrow to work, or cancel the work I have. Slowly breaking down and really wishing I received all my funds through … Continue reading »

Go For It

I just finished reading Paulo Coelho ‘s book  The Zahir, and I loved it.  I have a love hate relationship with his work – as in I adore it or it makes me want to throw it against the wall.  Sometimes I think he is really a little too preachy.  Other times he gives me … Continue reading »

Time For Casinos

My new love is a mere 8000 Euros to buy brand new (if I kept chain school technically I could do it by next Spring, but at the price of my soul I am not so sure the bike is worth that).  I have been checking into second hand, but second hand they are still … Continue reading »

We All Shop Online

So despite today being my birthday I went to work. Most of the world groans and roll their eyes at such comments, but I am a freelancer and I originally asked for the day off along with tomorrow for the trip to Amsterdam. But then the other couple who were coming with us could no … Continue reading »

Cover My Travels

I love the name! As I mentioned before, the only type of insurance I am really comfortable with is medical travel insurance. That is because I travel so much that I know the value of travel insurance. One bladder infection in the U.K later and I thanked the goddess that Travel Cuts refuse to arrange … Continue reading »

Digital Photo Frames

I love the very idea of digital photo frames. I have a ton of photo’s that I now pretty much only show off online. On occasion I print off my favs, but truthfully, since converting over to a digital camera I rarely print off film. I do miss showing off my pictures though. Which is … Continue reading »
