That is a thing of the past - as busy and hectic as our lives are now, we need to start taking every chance to get away and enjoy life!

The best way to accomplish this is a dream vacation…  and a great website to help you accomplish this is dreamvacations.com.

One of the nice features is that you can easily book discount airfare through them, which is especially helpful when your also booking one of their vacation packages.  Sometimes it is possible to bundle these two things together and really save more than if you tried to get them separately.

From time to time they will spotlight certain areas of interest, this is a great area to visit and can really help to pick a destination.  Currently the highlighted area is Brazil which I have never visited, but would love to.  Right now it is December and anywhere warm is starting to be more appealing than ever!

With the right discount airfare and affordable vacation package - it is easier than ever to make your dream vacation happen now vs. later!  Treat yourself and your family to a great time now…  I’m sure you all deserve it.

For starters the police were helpful to a point but they are not able to just go out and arrest someone, they have to get enough “dirt” on them so whatever charges actually stick.  It took awhile to amass enough information about the culprit and eventually he was put away - behind bars…

Since then they have put some precautions in place to ensure that this does not happen again the future.  Trust me, experiencing credit fraud is something you only want to do once, if ever!

They now use services that help protect their credit and also provide some protection for any damages if their credit or identity does get stolen again!  This has given them much peace of mind…

Since they are getting closer to retirement they really don’t have the desire to mess with calling banks and credit card companies constantly to take care of all the fraudulent activity caused by credit fraud - it really took a toll on them.

Hopefully now they can just live their lives and not have to worry about some scoundrel trying to swindle them out of their money and life savings!  One resource they have used extensively are sites like identitytheft.com and wikipedia.com.  Both sites have provided really good information on identity theft.

There is so much to do that just staying for a few days isn’t the best option.  If at all possible an extended stay where you visit several places is the best way to go.  So many adventures await you in the Caribbean - it is truly one of the most magical places on Earth!

So when you are thinking of holidays in Caribbean locations such as Cancun where there are beaches and beaches, water activities, cenotes (under river caverns)as well as world class scuba diving and Mayan ruins to explore.  You can get lost in this place, happily lost!

I fell in love with Honduras, especially Roatan - what a great place!  While there I went on a zip line tour, which is when you slide down cables suspended from tree-tops.  It was a blast!  It ended up on a beach, full off food, drinks, and live music.  Without a doubt, this was the best day I have had in the Caribbean.

Belize is also a favorite of mine.  The people and government are very aware of their environment, and make sure that they take good care of it.  Eco tourism is alive and well in Belize, the last time I was there I floated down a river in the middle of the rain forest, both through caves and above ground - it was absolutely amazing!  While in the caves, there were actually bats in there sleeping in the ceiling.  I had never seen anything like this before.

There are so many things to do in the Caribbean, I have only talked about a few of the places I went on my last trip, there are many more…  That is one of the cool things about Central America, South America and the Caribbean Islands - there are SO MANY places to go.  The next few holidays you take to the Caribbean will be lots of fun.  Each one of these unique places had their own wonderful things to do!

I just bought a new car, well it isn’t new but it was new to me!  The only problem was it wasn’t in the same city as me, in fact it wasn’t even in the same state as me.

With the advent of the Internet, you can now shop for a vehicle(s) across the US.  There isn’t any limitation on whether or not it is close to you or 1000 miles away.

So now I had a conundrum, I had a vehicle several states away (yes I got a carfax report LOL) and now I needed to get it home.  Thankfully in my research I found a good solution.  There is a growing market for car carriers, companies that will put your car on an 18 wheeler, drive it across the US and deliver it to your city.

I found one car carrier in particular that was very friendly to deal with and very helpful in setting up my vehicle delivery.  I’m a total newbie to this, their website - www.hatcreekcarriers.com had answers to my questions as well as explained the process and time frames for my car delivery.

Hat Creek Carriers is located in Abilene Texas and have built their company on good values and excellent customer service.  This was definitely in line with my experience with them!

Not only can they use their own carriers, but they can also contract out to independent carriers which greatly expands the availability of someone being able to deliver your car in a timely manner.

This whole experience has been wonderful, and if the next vehicle I purchase is out of state, I will definitely use them again!

There is only one problem, and that is her addiction… She has been struggling with addiction for all of her adult life, it started when she was a teen.

It has been a struggle for her, her family, and for her friends - because we care so much about her. It saddens us all whenever she hurts herself to feed her addiction.

The good news is that she is doing much better now. Her family was able to find a drug treatment center that did things a little differently. They way they implement their drug treatment program was more comprehensive than anything she had been privy to… and it really is working!

By combining detox, individual therapy, group therapy, depression treatment, and alternative medicine into one program their results have been excellent. As far as drug rehabilitation goes they do it the best.

I do not want to put my friends name out on the web - the people that know her reading this will understand… One thing I do want to say is how thankful I am as a close friend that for the first time in her life, she feels like she has a chance.

A chance at a normal life where she is in control of what happens, where she can be productive and live out her dreams, find love and eventually have a family.

So again - Thank You…

Finding something they will all love is quite a task - not one to be taken lightly!  Over and over again though I hear one constant, universally, is that all women love jewelry!

So I went on a quest to find some great gift ideas for the women in my life.  For my Mother I found a beautiful selection of diamond heart necklaces.  I know she will cherish this gift!  For both my sister and her daughter I thought it would be neat to get something that matches.  So I went with gemstone jewelry.  This way I could have both their birth stones involved in the gift.  Not only is it unique to each of them, but also a similar gift that they can enjoy together!

Last but not least I have my new sister in law.  This is her first Christmas with our family and I want it to be a special one.

After looking all over for something she would just adore, I found it!  A blue diamond ring is exactly the right item.  The best thing about it is if she loves it as much as I think she will - then next year I can get her a matching pair of earrings or a necklace - or both!

I’m very excited about Christmas this year…  mainly because I know all the women in my life will be super excited when they open the precious little boxes that say “From Me” on them!

When you are planning a dinner party, you want to impress and save time! Imagine trying to clean a dozen lobsters, just for the tails. Where would you find that many lobsters!

Fresh lobster meat is a delicious treat that many enjoy.  Dripping in butter, it’s tasty plain, or on pasta.  However, it can be such a pain to make!  It sounds simple, but finding a fresh, live lobster is a chore if you don’t live in New England.  And if you do find a healthy lobster, you still have to handle it, boil it, and clean it, just to find the little bit of meat trapped in it’s knuckles, tail and claws.  It is certainly time consuming!

One thing I like to make sure of is that I don’t send the same exact card to everyone on my list, or even to just friends that also know each other.

The reason for this is that I don’t want one of my friends going to visit another friend and then find out that they got the same exact Christmas card from me. How tacky!

So I went on a search, scoring the web to find the best place for me to stock up on cards for this year. They had to be unique, something that none of my friends would also be sending out.

The good news is I found the solution!

Minted.com has some of the coolest ideas in cards that I have seen in a long time. The cool thing is their cards are different from anything that you can find in say a department store. Some of their designs are exclusive only to them, so it is pretty certain your card choice will be unique.

Not only do thy have a good selection of Christmas cards, but they also cover other holidays and have special sections for wedding invitations and even have Hanukkah cards.

This weekend was different though, one of my friends bought a professional poker table.  So now instead of the kitchen table we had a real poker table to play on!

I never would have thought this would make a difference…  It really did though!  The felt surface was very smooth and held the cards in place perfectly, it really made you feel like you were playing in Vegas even though you are at your buddies house.

The table was very well made and had folding legs, so once you were done playing, you could collapse the legs and slide it out of the way.  This was why my friends wife said it was okay!  She didn’t want it in the living room all the time, and she was very pleased with how easy it was to setup and then put away when not using it.

So of course I had to ask twenty questions, including how expensive was this thing, where did he get it etc.

What I found out was it is very affordable, especially for someone who is serious about their card playing!  Not only that but it gets shipped straight to you, so no worrying about how to get it to fit in your car!  I have a sub-compact, so trying to get a large poker table to fit was out of the question.

So, after the experience of using a professional poker table, I have decided I need one at my house as well.  After all, when it is time to host the card games, I want to continue the realistic experience.

The only difference is I want a blue table where my friend got a red one.
