Property Surveillance

My husband is very interested in surveillance cameras. He plans on installing a set as soon as our budget will allow. His reasons include keep an eye on the kids, keep an eye on our property, and make sure the obnoxious neighbors don't trespass. This type of surveillance is important to me because we moved our bedroom to a different floor and the baby monitor seems to be working, I'm a little nervous for what the future holds (teenagers)! This could possible earn us an insurance discount and increase our peace of mind.

The 4 camera home surveillance system seems to be perfect. This is supposedly the hottest selling system they supply, I can see why. The price seems decent enough, $279 for 4 indoor/ outdoor cameras, DVR PCI card, 4 cables, 4 power adapters and an installation CD (who needs that?!). You can even review the feed remotely, nanny cam anyone! This system has the ability to view 1 real time feed or 2 to 4 non real time feeds. I'd just have to find an open PC slot, hmm, interesting!

There are a variety of 4 camera security systems available. From professional, business, bullet or dome cameras, 30 FPS to 120 FPS. The systems can be expanded to meet your needs. Sun Security located in Florida, offers a 100% one year warranty against defective materials and workmanship. Or a full refund within 30 days if you aren't satisfied with their system.

Anniversary Invitations

I just celebrated my 12th wedding anniversary in November, so I have a ways to go before that coveted Silver Anniversary. My parents are approaching their 50th, in 8 years. So I am not planning any anniversary parties anytime soon. However, I will be sharing 50th Wedding invitations with friends who are looking to buy invitations.

I am in love with their "Our Past, Our Present" Wedding Anniversary Invitations line. It is just striking with the black & white photos. Granted it has been a while since I have purchased formal invitations, however these seem to be fairly priced. Especially for the styles they have available.

I can say that I will keep this site in mind for any golden wedding anniversary invitations I might need or any baby showers I might have to host in the future...

Bathroom Remodel

Just popping in here to dream about the new bathroom I might get, someday!!! Well at least the first floor bathroom, eventually we won't need to rent the front apartment out & then we'll have a grown up bathroom!!! I have a new mildew free ceiling. I still need to paint it with the mildew proof paint, but I have way too much to do upstairs in the apartment before we can finish up down stairs.

Our plans start here with a Tankless Water Heater. We have one in our concession trailer & we just love it! The way my hubby showers we need a boost.

I want a new tub except we aren't sure what we want. I'd like a slipper tub, but not on feet, the ones on a base. We would also like a shower. My ultimate goal would be floor to ceiling tile with a large drain in the middle of the room (those with kids can understand that, right?).

We are looking at the new stone looking laminate flooring & adding a new vanity with more counter space & a towel closet... To do this we will need to combine 2 rooms, for some reason the bath is a tiny 6x8 foot room with a 7x8 foot dressing room attached...It is just awkward & needs improvement!

I'd really love to upgrade my hardware. This Double Towel Bar looks like a perfect fit. My hope is to go with the "style" of the house but not really... if that makes sense! I am not a doily kind of girl, but I love some of the ornamentation of the Victorian Era. My tastes loom more towards French Prov, but that is today...Got Toile???

We have already added a newExhaust Fan with a Light ours has a heat lamp in it. The existing one when we moved in was just G-R-O-S-S! I think it was one of our first projects here!

I can't wait to show you after pics of all the work we are doing upstairs! I have some nasty before pics too...

Guaranteedblinds.com

I was asked to write an entry about Guaranteedblinds.com so I visited their website.

I was disappointed to learn that they do not have a professional installer serving my area. You can find this information by typing your zip code in at Guaranteedblinds.com, however I was liking their selection. They have wood, vinyl, & aluminum blinds; cellular, roman & roller shades; horizontal & vertical options.

I haven't yet begun shopping around for new blinds, so I can't tell you if Guaranteedblinds.com's prices are in line with everyone else. I did browse through their selection of roller shades. My house is full of roller shades, ugly roller shades to boot! So I am in the market to replace them, someday.

Not only does Guaranteedblinds.com have a ton of colors & textures to choose from, I didn't think the pricing was that high or out of whack. The 6 tier pricing was dependant on size and color choice.
