I would love to go to florida

Have you ever been to Orlando, Florida? I have not but it is something that I am sure I would love. For me it's universal studies that I would like to see, not particularly the Disney stuff.

Looking at orlando vacations though it's clear that there is much more than just theme parks. They have fantastic hotels, great weather and beaches to boot.

If you have been there please drop a comment and let me know what you did and what you thought.

Do you need a walk in tub?

The great thing about walk in tubs is that they allow those with problems getting into a regular tub the ability to have long soothing, relaxing baths.

Often the people who have trouble getting into a regular tbu are the ones who get the most benefit from having baths over showers. Joints and aches respond well to warm relaxaton.

W walk in tub works in an odd way obviously due to the fact that it needs to fill with water. First you have to open the door and get in, then you have to run the taps. Then you have to wait for the water to full drain before opening the door to get out. So make sure you have everything you need when you get it!

A Rain Barrel Is An Excellent Idea

If you are looking to be more environmentally friendly and possibly lower you water bill then you should consider getting a couple of rain barrels to put outside. Harvesting the rain saves you having to turn on the taps to provide water for your plants and garden. You could even use it to wipe over your car or anything else you can think of that uses water.

This also saves water from going through treatment and all in all reduces large footprints.

Do you have a rainbarrel and have you had success with it?
If you don't have one, are you considering one?

Would you use diet pills?

I don't think I would ever use diet pills. I don't feel overweight by much and also feel that any pounds that I have hanging around are my own doing and can be pretty easily reversed.

However there are a lot of people who do feel they have tried everything and as long as a doctor says it's safe I guess I can't see a problem with giving some kind of appetite suppressant a try. A lot of obesity is caused literally by an addiction to food so you may also need to get some mental health help too.

That's what i think anyway. What do you think?

How do buildings go up so fast....

One thing that seems to have changed a lot since I was a child is the speed that new building can be erected. These days its seems like a new retail park or set of office buildings can literally just spring up from a pile of wasteland!

Of course it still takes a lot of work but building contractors make use of awesome new technology and pre fabricated parts such as steel buildings to build sturdy, strong and affordable structures that can be used for almost any application.

This buildings used to look awful but they have also been given great new design touches now and some look really really nice.

Thinking of getting a degree online

My partner Lara is studying her masters and almost everyone I know has some university qualifications, except me. So I am seriously considering getting an online degree. I have been looking at the this because it would still allow me to travel like I currently do and work at my own pace.

I could also get a degree from the USA or UK which is where I would like to study if I was going to uni. This is one of the main advantages of online universities.

One of the places that I could look at getting an online degree from is Western Governors Online University. They have a very nice looking website and offer course in many areas from Teacher training to business training at bachelor's and master's degree levels.

The idea of being a teacher is interesting to me and WGO are fully accredited getting teaching qualifications from them is just as valid as getting the qualifications from any other university.

They also take experience into consideration when giving you credits and are non-profit which means that you should find lower tuition fees.

I can only see benefits with getting an online education. The only small negative I can find is the lack of class mates face to face interaction but that could be good too as it keeps you away from the student bars!

Have you checked your furnace filter?

If you have not checked your furnace filters for a month or so, or worse since last winter then it's about time that you do so. Any filters that are dirty should be cleaned well (I use soapy water) and any that are past their usage should be replaced immediately.

These filters help control the quality of the warm air entering out homes and protect you from dust related ailments. Also by allowing the furnace to operate at it's best you will find your bills will actually start to drop too!
