Old cars have no value now unless they are those antic cars. Some of my rich church members always donate car to the pastor or other church members that are without a car.

If you are living in US and have old junk to dispose and do not know who to give them too, please call Car Angel (www.carangel.com). It is a non-profit company that uses car and other donations to make videos for kids and teens.

The only time we are pampered with wines without needing to visit any pubs is during our confinement period. Unfortunately, I did not take the advantage fearing that wine will be too heaty for me. I did not even take a gulp of DOM. The only wine that I took is in my food.

This morning I left a message in MSN to one of the prettiest blogger that I have yet to meet. You know who you are. Instead of saying “Hi Miche! Thank You for saying such nice thing about me.” She asked, “I have wanted to ask you this; you can really make a lot writing opps?”

So I told her how much I get paid to blog. Yup, I can afford to buy the Audemars Piguet watch, if I want too. She is indeed tempted but she does not want to contaminate her blog with paid post. So I told her to start another blog then.

Hey look at bright side. Even though my PR dropped I still receive offer from ReviewMe and other direct offer from advertisers, it seems that PR is not the sole criteria for advertiser to pick your blog to advertise for their product. If you have a high PR but writes in bad English, Advertiser will have to think twice before giving the offer to you or they will have a hard time reviewing your post after that.

After this blog’s PR dropped to PR3 beginning of month, I signed up for SiteMeter to monitor the traffic to this blog. I noticed that I have more website traffic than before. I still cannot comprehend why Google want to punish me. I only sell one miserable link on my sidebar. Hey, anyone of you got remove my links from your sidebar ah which caused this blog to have less backlinks. Hehe.

Anyway what is done is done. I can only pray for miracle now but I will not sit back and shake my leg. If I really to resign and go full time with child minding and also blogging, I need to find ways to get more website traffic. Maybe I will hire ThinkBIGsites.com to help me in this area.

Today is a day of another mix feeling for me. After coming back from sending my son for his monthly check up in the government clinic, as usual I will check my email. I was so happy that I received an email from ReviewMe, I got an offer from an Advertiser. I know most of you got some from them before but this is my FIRST TIME! So, I am so excited about it.

Then I received a ping on my MSN from Jess, she asked me to check my PR. Told me that Google is penalizing bloggers again. So I quick when to check mine. OH NO!!! Reduced to PR2. I don’t know what to feel now. From PR 4 to PR3 and now to PR2. I felt so numb. My plan to resign to spend more time with my children and earn my paycheck from blogging went down the drain.

The only thing that came to my mind at that time was website optimization firm. Yes, only they can help my blog now. But then I must be willing to spend some money to hire the experts from the website optimization firm to help increase my PR. If they can promise result, I wouldn’t mind.

I found this great offer from Real-a-Save, a Denver Colorado real estate company in Denver of course. Normally when we buy a home through a real estate agent, we have to pay them certain percentage of the sales amount as their commission. That’s where they get their income. However, with Real-a-Save, they will return you 75% of their commission. Sounds good to be true ya? From the testimonial that I read from their website, a buyer bought a washer, dryer, fridge and a living room set with the saving. That is a lot of saving.

If you want to sell a house then, Real-a-Save offers outstanding service for the incredibly low price of $2,500. Any home, one price. The normal rate is around 3.2%. Even if you sell a house that cost $500,000, you still pay the real estate agent $2,500 only. On top of that, you will also receive complete MLS exposure, online marketing, yard sign, lock box, full-color brochures, and more. Get the detail information from their website.

I can still remember the pain that I went thru when I got breast abscess one month after I gave birth to my boy. It is over a year already but the memory haunts me till now. The pain during the dressing session was excruciating. I should have swallowed pain killer before going to the clinic. Why I never thought of it? Oh, now I remember, you can’t take pain killer if you are breastfeeding or pregnant.

Ibuprofen targets the site of pain locally, and also reduces inflammation and fever. The codeine works centrally to reduce the brain’s perception of pain.

“I want to stay at Nicole’s house.”

The above, when we were still in Penang.

“Mommy, my stomach pain-pain, my leg pain-pain, my eyes cannot open. I cannot go to school.”
“Why must go to school? Why cannot go to Penang again?”

Recently I found out that Maybank has a Gold Savings account. Our savings will be based on the gold value and our account book will show figures in grams instead of in ringgit. For instance, today you save $85.00 that is equivalent to 1g. In your account it will show the 1g instead of $85.00. This is one way to invest in gold. Don’t go buy gold jewelry and keep, you will loose on the cost of workmanship.

Another way to invest in gold is by buying gold bullion. You can get your gold bullion from Monex and also monitor the latest price of gold from their website. You can put your trust in Monex coz for over 30 years, the Monex companies have been America’s gold and precious metals investment leader. With client transactions now totaling over $25 billion, Monex Deposit Company is America’s premier precious metal dealer because of their dedication to customer service and satisfaction.

Recently I purchased a Canon Powershot A550 Digital Camera after reading some reviews about it online. It was quite time consuming searching for the best digital camera that suits my need. I have to Google search one brand after another. I wish TestFreaks was here earlier. It will save so much of my time. It gathers reviews from all over the world about the hottest gadgets and consumer electronics and places them in their specific categories.

Lets say I want to look for digital camera reviews, I just click the link and I got a whole list on the A to Z brand of digital camera with its reviews. Let’s say, you are not so sure about which brand of lcd tv that you want, they have the lcd tv reviews for us too. We can also join the forum there to discuss with other users and exchange information about the products that we are interested in or the products that we are already using.

However, they are still in their beta stage and will be up and running in Spring 2007. Then we will be able to find reviews from professional sources as well as fellow consumers and bloggers. Meantime, go and take a peep at their website and bookmark them

My brother-in-law is a real estate agent. And when he comes back for the weekends, I will sometimes hear him talks about the sales that he made or even the various properties that are available. There are times when there is a very good property that is up for sale and which he thinks will give a good return, he will email most of his brothers and asked whether they are interested to buy or not. He is like the real property news updater.

Well, not everybody will have a real estate agent in their family. But everybody can read the latest updates and news about real estate from RISMedia. There you can be updated with the relevant news and information you need to know about real estate.

My ears are out of proportion. The left side is slightly bigger than the right side. The right side, the smaller ones is slightly lower than the left side. I am wearing glasses and I always have problem when changing to a new one. I have to inform the optometrist my problem and get him/her to bend my frame slightly so than my glasses won’t slant to one side. Problem solved.

But I know some people have protruding ears that really affect their appearance. This is can be solved by going for ear surgery, Otoplasty. Dr Cleven is one of Orlando cosmetic surgeon that performs Otoplasty for the set back and repositioning of prominent ears. In some patients, this may be performed as young as 6 or 7 years of age. However, older ones also can.

The company that I am currently working at is very calculative and always try to find ways to reduce cost. One of the ways is by limiting our phone access. We can’t dial out to personal numbers. All our phones are with code to customers and suppliers numbers only. If they have branches, I am sure they will use the VoIP Small Business Phone Systems. With VoIP Small Business Phone Systems, small businesses with office branches scattered across the country can share the same phone system on the same private list of extensions across all branch offices equally. With Xpander Communications, costs are drastically reduced due to unlimited free service & support as well as improved long distance and international calling plans. I am sure soon this company is going to use VoIP phone systems.
