Edge Hardwood Flooring, One of the Best Flooring Contractor

Now that summer is hitting across the country, it is seriously getting hotter as well! We actually thought of changing our think carpets to hardwood flooring to be able to get a cooler feeling inside the house. What a very good timing to have found Scottsdale Flooring which specializes in the following:
  • Installation of Stairs
  • Installation of Custom and Non Custom Hardwood, as well as Laminate Flooring
  • Demolition of any type of existing Flooring
  • Concrete Grinding, Floating and Prep
  • Repairs
To find the best contractor in Scottsdale, collect all the bids from different companies and get the best from there. So why going anywhere else other than Scottsdale Flooring.

What I like or Dislike About Customer Satisfaction Surveys

In any business, customer satisfaction reviews play an important role in the strategic development of the company, allowing the company to grow and adopt in line with the demands of its consumer base.

Generational Equity apparently, builds up a good reputation of small business customer surveys. PitchEngine specialists provide insight and strategies on such matters.

At Last Our New Sofa Has Arrived!

It is really worth the wait, it feels very cosy with recliners on each sides! Imagine we ordered it around last week April and only arrived yesterday! It's just a very good timing now that I am on my last trimester of pregnancy, that I could lay my back comfortably without having pains, unlike our old one.

Luckily, it was a good bargain by the time we bought it (10 weeks ago) a total of 60% deducted from its original price! yepppeeyyyyy, I actually decided to look at their website again (Harveys Furniture), geezzzz it is now back to its original which is almost a thousand pounds, while we only paid less than £400! Lucky huh?....

Fantastic Deals For Your Dream Vacation

Malaysia is always one of our dream countries my husband and I have always talked about visiting. One of the attractions for us to go there is that it combines beautiful tropical scenery, unspoilt (golden sandy) beaches, lush tropical rain forest filled with a variety of plant and animal life, diverse culture, clear blue waters teeming with prolific marine life, all this combined with fantastic Malaysian mouth-watering cuisine and excellent shopping. I was told that shopping in Malaysia is tremendously enjoyable be it in air-conditioned malls or the glittering-with-lights night markets, it is like a home away from home.

A tranquil island with white sandy beaches and charming fishing villages which enchant us. It is a land with a multiracial populace living in harmony and peaceful co-existence. All these attractions made me even more excited! It's just a very good timing that Accor Hotels City Super Sale gives us a chance to enjoy while taking the advantage of savings of up to 60% when to book online between 23 - 29 June, for stays between July 10 and September 30, 2009.

Everyone Deserves A Fantastic Holiday Break

Indeed, everyone deserves a holiday to break free from their daily work routine, whilst summer break will soon be upon us and many parents will be considering any activities to allow their children to be a part of. Also, living in the same location for months and carrying out the routine daily activities gets too wearying over a period of time and it is then when we need a change in our lifestyle in order to restore ourselves for few days and get back to our usual routine with a fresh feeling. Therefore, spending a vacation with your family and friends is something to treasure and look forward to.

Whether going for a beach or camping summer holidays, surely the whole family would enjoy and love it and without having to worry about anything at the last moment, make all the preparation beforehand. Need not to forget of course any beachwear and sun protections too, couple of tents and camping equipment and camping gears. Camping out in the middle of nature is truly one of those memories that can last a lifetime.

Therefore, the right camping equipment can make a good trip great, and nothing bonds people together like having just the bare essentials and each other. Also, would always be nice to relax while listening to music so why not bringing your ipod or netbooks too, thus downloading photographs can be made easy and sending them to your friends anytime.

Flicking through the memories of an incredible holiday pays off the money you've spent and the refreshed feelings of coming back home makes it a lot, isn't it? Why not start planning for a weekend or two this coming summer holiday season with the whole family.
There is always a great holiday place offered everywhere which is varied, affordable and comfortable, from where to explore, and enjoy, the pleasures of the nature.

I Will Be Alone Soon!!!

Hubby has been busy now of completing all his papers for his working permit of going back to Angola to work again! His presence and expertise is apparently been extremely needed at the moment... Imagine a mining company without a Geologist, it is like a "life without any direction at all".

I just hope I can cope to stay on my own until he comes back again in time for me to give birth. We both really are so lucky to have been given a chance to stay at home for almost 5 months now (mind you that's with pay)...

How To Deal With Conflicts?

"You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you." Brian Tracy

Because we are individuals, our life experience is unique. There will be disagreement or conflict. At some point in time, someone is not going to agree with your opinion or do things your way. Conflict. It will eventually happen. None of us has the ability to control others or our environment no matter how hard we try or want to. In the long run, trying to control others is tiring and usually backfires.


Conflict is an internal experience related to an external source. You feel threatened in some way. I know "threatened" is a strong word to use, but that is what your subconscious is perceiving. When a threat is perceived your body releases adrenaline and cortisol. As a result of that, your body goes into survival mode typically known as a fight, flight or freeze response.

Your response to someone not agreeing with your point of view is a learned behavior. Your family taught you how to handle conflict by example. Many families, however, do not deal with conflict in a positive way. They might not have been the best examples of effective communication.

Set up while tapping on the Karate Chop point on the side of the hand
"Even though I have these conflicts and I don't feel safe, I deeply love and accept all parts of myself.
"Even though I avoid conflict at all costs, I accept my feelings and who I am."
"Even though I don't stand up for myself when I have conflict, I choose to appreciate who I am and how I feel."

Eyebrow: "I obviously have conflicts."
Side of Eye: "These conflicts feel unsafe."
Under Eye: "I feel conflict when I feel threatened by other people?"
Nose: "I don't feel like myself when I'm being put on the spot?"
Chin: "I'm willing to resolve the conflict but I don't know how."
Collarbone: "I won't feel safe if I state how I feel."
Under Arm: "I'm afraid to deal with conflict so I avoid it at all cost."
Head: "I don't feel safe when I picture myself standing up for myself with certain people."

Eyebrow: "I want to focus and resolve these feelings about conflict."
Side of Eye: "I can feel safe even when I stand up for myself and am honest about my needs."
Under Eye: "I choose to resolve these fears about conflict and using my voice."
Nose: "I can release my fear of being threatened and that my needs don't count."
Chin: "I choose to feel safe even if I'm speaking up for myself."
Collarbone: "If they don't agree with my needs, that is okay."
Under Arm: "I love feeling this positive energy around finding my voice."
Head: "I appreciate feeling so hopeful about speaking my truth."

Instead of focusing on the problem and trying to get away from where you don't want to be, focus on the solution and where you want to go. Consider the fact that the Law of Attraction is always at work. You will attract to yourself what you are focused upon. If you are focusing on the threat you feel when someone does not agree with you, then you will respond from a place of fear and avoidance. Focus on the direction that you would like to move toward because you know you deserve to do that.

A Car Without Air-Conditioning Ruins Your Summer Ride

It's always been a pleasure to enjoy the fall of cool air on our bodies, especially during hot summers. In fact, my husband and I had a horrible ride experience when we went out one day, one of the hottest days here in the UK. I tell you what, it was awful being stuck in traffic without fresh air coming through the windows and with no air conditioning, only a fan. We are using one of my in-law's cars, that's why when we are ready to buy our own, it should be the one with air conditioning unit.

We have to make ourselves aware of how to keep its air conditioning unit in good condition by taking care of it. Most of us tend not to worry too much about the air conditioning in our cars and is often easily overlooked until a problem arises, and and when it does, it is often too late for simple troubleshooting procedures. Unlike our household unit, your auto air conditioning unit is more complex.

Apparently, 1 Air Conditioning specializes in throubleshooting all our auto air conditioning problems. Whether you are looking for Air conditioning Compressors, Air conditioning Condensers, Air conditioning Evaporators, Driers or Expansion Devices, 1 Air Conditioning has a great selection of new and remanufactured products available and ready to ship.

So, check the website now before its too late, to have a wonderful summer ride.

Alfie's 2nd Birthday Celebration - Part II

Tuesday the 9th his actual birthday, they went to my parent-in-laws' house to celebrate his birthday again! Mind you he was fast asleep when we got there. However, we thought he was gonna cry as soon as he moved (which he normally does), especially during his first few minutes of waking up, but apparently he did not. Instead, he was looking for more presents LOL... The moment he saw me and his unopened presents from us, he turned his head looking for Stuart (my hubby), and said "Stuit more presents".. It was rather hilarious, and here he is opening his presents..
We bought him a little piano and a set of water pistols, which he then played with his uncle Stuart. He enjoyed it, well anything with water in it as he loves playing with water....He was funny because after he got tired of playing, he was then asking for more presents and more cards! LOl, I'd wonder if he asked his mum the following day!

Take A Budget Family Camping In France This Summer

Have you ever thought of going camping somewhere but still isn't sure of which direction you're going? Camping is a great outdoor program for the whole family this coming summer, going out to spend at least a week in a country side and enjoy the fresh air coming from the woodlands, free from the busy life and leaving all the worries behind while camping with family or friends. It certainly is the activity full of fun and adventure. It really lets you enjoy local cuisine, architecture, dialects, customs, and festivals. So, where do you think is the best camping escapade?

Did you know that France is renounced for good food, good wine, beautiful country side, there are loads of outdoor activities for kids, depending on where you're going or whatever your interests are you can find it somewhere! Here comes summer and apparently,
camping in France is one of the most popular holiday options for families in the UK. Thousands of families flock across the channel each year, taking advantage of the sunny weather, taking their own car, van or rather why not hiring a car throughcar hire France

Camping out with family or friends in the middle of nature is one of those memories that can last a lifetime. The right camping equipment can make a good trip great, and nothing bonds people together like having just the bare essentials and each other. Moreover, the campsite will become less inconvenient, making family camping more comfortable and to be able to see the beauty of your camping outdoor only when after putting up tents.

Thus, you can now well understand the reason for the growing popularity of budget family camping, France for the modern camper who wants great views, local sight-seeing opportunities, wants to stay within a holiday budget.

Our Garden, Still Waiting for all the Flowers to Come Out!

It was already a while ago when I last blogged about our "Unfinished Garden" and when "We Finally Had Our Shed In Place"! Also, we've been so busy plating summer plants (bedding flowers and shrubs), after our fence panels have been put up (this was between our garden and our neighbors)... Looking really good after weeks and weeks of hard work, I should say... We just have wait until all the flower buds would finally come out in due time. There are loads to be seen in few weeks time!Some of the flowers we now glimpse in our beautiful garden....Enjoy viewing....
