Protecting Your Investment—Caring for Your Smartphone

With all the features and functions available on a smartphone nowadays, you're making a real investment when you purchase one. That's why it's important to care for your phone like you would any other delicate and expensive piece of equipment. Here are a few ideas to help you out:

Keep your smartphone in a safe location such as your purse or pocket. Don't toss it into the bottom of your bag, or throw it on the dashboard of your car where it can get scratched, scuffed or even cracked from abuse. If you don't like a hard case, then at least be sure you have a separate pocket free of keys and other objects that might harm the phone. This will also make it easier to find when you want to use it.

Some phones, like the HTC Android camera phones, offer such high quality photo-taking options that your phone becomes much more than a communication device. In that case, you may want to keep an extra memory card handy so you can remove photos periodically. That way you will save your pics in the event your phone is lost, damaged or stolen.
And don't think people don't steal smartphones. They do! Be sure you keep an eye on your phone whether you're in a store, restaurant or anywhere else. Keep it in your purse or pocket, or hold it if necessary to discourage theft. There's no telling what aspects of your identity a criminal can capture from mining your smartphone.

Also be sure to record your personal information and keep a record of all your telephone numbers, addresses and other data you normally store in your phone. You'll be glad you did if you ever leave it at home one day and need to make an important call or email.

Smartphones aren't cheap, but they offer so many functions that make life easier. If you can afford one, they're certainly worth the investment. Just be sure that you care for your phone and keep it safe to protect that investment. Then the only thing you have to worry about is upgrading when the next great smartphone comes along.

Online Dating and the Single Mum

Dating online and single mothers. These are not two concepts you would traditionally see in the same sentence. But in my eyes, there could not be a more perfect fit. Having a child on your own is a very challenging experience and can be utterly disillusioning. However hard it may be, it’s very important to find some time to be yourself as a single mother – the person you used to be, removed from motherhood. And eventually, it’s important that you reawaken your love life. Online dating provides the perfect avenue for this re-introduction into the dating world. Here are a few reasons why:

It’s popular and widely successful…

There used to be a definite stigma attached to online dating, everyone considering its users to be either desperate or weird. But as more and more of our interaction moves online, dating websites are becoming the norm. There are now a huge number of them, and each has many success stories. Dating giant eHarmony are believed to be responsible for 5% of marriages in the US, and UK dating with eHarmony has also been immensely successful. Single mother or not, this is the new and ever-growing dating trend.

It’s speedy…

Time is not an easy thing to come by as a single parent. It’s a full-time job: you’re either working or babysitting. And the only activity that seems possible during your free moments is sleep. This is where online dating is handy – it takes no time at all to sign up and start browsing matches. Also, you’re usually updated via email, so you can check the site and any developments whilst on the move.

It’s convenient…

Online dating is also incredibly convenient. With this you never have to hire a babysitter, go to a bar and stare around hopefully for a suitor. You can browse matches from the privacy and comfort of your own home. You can even initiate the first stages of the relationship online, not having to leave the house until three or four weeks down the line.

It finds the perfect matches…

Dating websites also save you another load of time by tracking down the right people for you. They have compatibility matchers which ask you lots of questions – such as the personality quiz with eHarmony – and then your matches are based on the answers. For single parents this is very useful as you can find compatible people, maybe single parents themselves, more easily.

It gives you control…

When dating online, everything is easier to control. You don’t give out personal contact details until you’re ready. You don’t meet someone in person until you’re ready. This means you can take things as slowly as you want – a big advantage if you haven’t dated for a while.

Easy, fast, fun and effective, online dating has a benefit for everyone, but especially for single mothers cautiously re-entering the world of dating.

Webhosting

Webhosting companies are truly widely available nowadays. I come across links to different webhosting companies every once in awhile.There are so many out there that we wouldn't know how to choose the right one  eh? I admit that I have that problem myself too :p But fret not! It's so much easier now with this website, all the major, trusted webhosting companies are in there for you to choose. 

Best of all, they have coupons for you to save more money! I am so gonna check out this webhosting company soon!!! Hopefully they are able to suit my budget and need. I need to blog more in the future as I am certainly in need of some extra moolah! ;) 

Charm Bracelets.

When I was a teen, I used to love charm bracelets so much that I have a huge bunch of 'em. But now that I am a mom, I no longer have the chance to put on anything but ring slings, diaper bags and milk bottles :p I can't even remember the last time I dressed decently. But then, if the girl will love charm bracelets as much as I used to, I will be more than happy to get some for her. They are so irresistably cute. I am sure she would love the silver and gold bespoke charm bracelets. As for me, I prefer platinum ones hehe. And now, they can even customise your very own charm bracelet according to your liking. How cool is that?! Maybe I should get one for my mom's birthday this coming October. She's the biggest jewellery fan! I am sure she would be thrilled to receive that as a birthday pressie! 157

I think I've read somewhere that charm bracelets are supposed to be very lucky. They are worn to keep nasties away. I wonder how true this is but I wouldn't mind getting more if it's true. A little something to remind us that everything will be alright, who wouldn't want that eh? Oh gosh, I really can't wait to order some now! They are so pretty!! While I am at it, maybe I should get once charm bracelet for each cousin sister? :p Ain't it cool when everyone wears the charm bracelets on our next family gathering? I would definitely take out my camera and get a shot of that!!

Postcards

I remember when I was a kid, I used to love collecting postcards whenever I get them from friends and classmates who went for vacations. I think the stack of postcards has been given away few years back after some spring-cleaning session. LOL! In fact it's much easier now to start collecting postcards again as I can have them printed however and whenever I want them :p You know, the thing about postcards are they are always so colourful and pretty, it makes you imagine you are at that certain place there and then. I used to be fascinated over pretty postcards with amazing, breathtaking views of places abroad.

But then, the passion to collect postcards was then put aside as I got lesser and lesser postcards over the years. People have now gone more digital when it comes to things like this and some prefer buying souvenirs (which is fine with me BTW :p) Even I myself would prefer buying souvenirs whenever I travel. And those pretty sceneries  I used to drool over can now be put into photographs instead. Maybe I should take some awesome shots and have them printed as postcards to be given to my friends and family the next round I travel. That would be a great idea huh? Personally shot by myself and have it printed as a postcard! I should go check out postcard printing. Talk about personal touch! Hehe!! Next trip's souvenir - CHECKED!
