Nothing is as spine-chilling as finding wasps in your backyard as you cut the sod.

• Well, this past summer time I tightly escaped getting stung several times by wasps.

I left my house during early Springtime to go and visit my mom, as we’d not seen each other in a long time and so I took time off work to spend two months with her. Mom is the best person in the world and I had missed her so much. My job can be demanding, but I have an accommodating boss. My pal and I agreed I’d work from home, and if there were jobs to do I’d be there to handle them. Mom thought I was coming one afternoon but I arrived an afternoon earlier to surprise her. She cursed at me when she opened the front door and there I was with my luggage in hand. Anyway, we had the best time and I got back home at the start of summer. By this time, my sod was overgrown and so I got busy cutting it. I normally wear earphones while cutting the sod, but I had misplaced them and that’s when I heard the wasps. They were hidden in a bushy section and came at me with full force as I was mowing near the nest. I dropped the mower, and ran into my house to get in touch with a wasp exterminator. They specialize in wasp removal and had done a terrific job at a neighbor’s house the previous summer. I was safely in my house watching as the wasp exterminator was busy at work to ensure all of them were gone.

My sibling wanted to be a homeowner for the longest time.

However, it was never quite the right time financially.

After she met her ex, they moved in together and soon after had twin babies. They were both working, but it never seemed enough. So, they had little savings to put a downpayment on a house. After I graduated school, I started a job as a contractor with a friend, and it took off. Within a year, we were thriving and in three years we sold it for a lot of money. It all seemed like a dream, but it was real. I didn’t need to spend all the money we had made, so I opted to surprise my sibling with a home. She was raising two youngsters on her own after separating from her ex, and I knew the house was the perfect gift. In the afternoon she was moving in, I was away on business and my sibling called saying there were bees on a tree in the backyard. The youngsters had gone to explore the backyard and came across the beehive hidden on the tree trunk. My sibling was panicking, but I managed to calm her down and explain she had to contact a bee removal business. They’d send a pro to the house to remove the bees and take them to a honey farm, or release them far away from her home. After we hung up the phone, my sibling hurriedly contacted a bee removal contractor she’d found online. They did excellent residential bee removal and my sibling was glad to let the youngsters outside once more to play.

My dad was a roofer, and it’s no surprise that I am also working for a roofing company.

When I was young, my dad did roofing repairs for folks in our area.

Back then, he didn’t need certificates or licenses to do his job. He’d learned the skill from a friend of my grandpa and dad went on to start his own roofing company. It wasn’t a big venture, but he was never out of work. Dad was quite skillful when it comes to all matters roofing service. This made folks in our small town opt to hire him for jobs rather than big companies from the city. When I was old enough, I started to go with my dad to work and help him with roof repair. There was even a time we did several small roof replacements, just the two of us. These weren’t big houses, and the owners were willing to wait up to a week for the work to be completed. By the time I was finishing high school, I knew I wanted to continue with roofing, but perhaps work for a major roofing company. Dad only did residential roofing repairs, but I also wanted to venture into commercial roofing. I found a school in the next state where I completed my studies. Then, I got hired by a roofing company and the rest is history. I find so much of what my dad taught me in those early days to be useful. I work on both residential and commercial roofing jobs in my new city. We start the week with roof installation for a huge home that’s almost complete. Then, we move on to a roofing repair gig.

My partner and I were sure we wanted to buy a second house. This would be a sound investment, and we’d have somewhere to go for holidays. Second homes seem like a luxurious purchase to many. But, we are fortunate to have a thriving business that’s given us more money to spend. However, we didn’t want to just waste money on clothes and such purchases. We wanted investments that would secure our future. So, we thought about getting a second home that we could buy cheap, and upgrade to increase its equity. This was advice we got from our financial advisor and it made sense. We traveled to different areas and came across a lovely lake community with a lake house for sale. The previous owner hadn’t taken care of the place, so we got it for a good price. After that, we started searching for a ‘roofing company near me’ so we could get urgent roofing service. The roof on the lake house was leaking, and there was no saving it. So, our goal for contacting the roofing company was to get roof replacement. We weren’t sure we wanted to go with the same type of roof, so we sought advice from a roofing contractor. The lady arrived at the agreed time and began doing roof inspection. Then, we sat down and she gave us sound roofing service advice. The best decision was a roof replacement, and we opted to go with shingles to give the lake house a better aesthetic. We also got more advice from the roofing contractor about future roofing service to ensure the roof lasted longer.

I am only thirty years old, but I own an HVAC company.

When I first opened the company, my mother asked me how old I was? I looked at her and told her I was her first-born son, so she knew the answer. She wanted to know why I was trying to do business like an eighty year old. I thought she was losing it, but I asked her what she was talking about, and not so nicely. She told me that no one put ads in the newspaper unless you were having a yard sale, trying to sell junk, or letting people know you were dead. I chuckled, but I still disagreed with her. She couldn’t believe I was so old-fashioned. I told her I was doing my best to get my HVAC company recognized. She folded her arms and asked if I wasn’t sure I was doing my best to get the HVAC company bankrupt. She was being unfair, but I knew she was right. When she told me to go on the computer and look for an online marketing company, I shuddered. She told me I was one of those people who grew up with computers and I should learn how to use it. If I wanted my HVAC company to flourish, I would need to go online and utilize social media for more than reading jokes or new recipes. I knew she was right, so I kissed her cheek and told her I would get my wife online when I got home, and have her do some research on marketing companies with HVAC experts.

SEM

I spent three weeks on the computer trying to figure out how to do HVAC marketing for my company.

I wanted to put good ads on Facebook, and create a presence on Linked-in and other websites.

I could create accounts on the social media sites, and on LInked-in and other websites, but that didn’t mean I would get any business from them. I never saw any sign where someone had visited my HVAC website. I talked to a friend and asked what he thought about my website and ads. I saw his forehead wrinkle before he said he didn’t know I was doing any HVAC marketing. He asked for my website address, and I gave it to him. He found the website, and looked up and just stared at me. He asked if I saw it? Of course I saw the HVAC website. I had created it. He shook his head and reminded me I was an HVAC technician and an HVAC company owner. I was not an HVAC marketing company. He asked if I wanted a roofer to install my furnace or air conditioning. He wouldn’t want a plumber to do his electrical work. He told me that everyone had a specialty. The HVAC company owner was a specialist in HVAC. The marketing company was a specialist in marketing and creating working websites. I needed to run the HVAC company and let my business and website be advertised by the HVAC marketing expert. I thanked him for nothing and threw my mouse at him. He chuckled and said he knew how I felt. He tried to do his own marketing and website when he first opened his tattoo shop.

SEO services

I had never advertised my HVAC company.

I inherited from my father, and I used his customer base.

When I realized my customer database was getting old, I knew I had to figure out how I was going to start rebuilding it. Many of my customers had retired and were no longer living in homes, but in retirement communities. Some of them had passed away, and others had moved out of the area. I got a few customers, but I wasn’t recouping enough to cover what I was losing. I talked to an online marketer and he started talking about PPC advertising. He offered to do social media ads, Google ads, and to add extra pages and SEO to the website. I had no idea what he was talking about. I did searches on the web, but I didn’t know it was SEO that took me from my search to a website. I clicked on ads that noted Google verified, and I clicked on ads that took me to a website I clicked out of without perusal. He told me I was a product of online marketing. He said PPC was where you paid a certain amount if someone clicked on your ad and went to the HVAC website or other website, it was associated with. Using google ads was the same premise, but you paid google to place your ads. He could place my HVAC ads on social media sites, and the people would be directed to my HVAC website. Regardless of what advertising means I used, I still needed SEO, which is jet words and phrases that connect my HVAC website to those ads.

My niece got married a while ago and then she went to a ceremony party.

I let my sister as well as myself invite ourselves to go to the party when there was a function. The two of us help pick out some ceremony dresses as well as going to the site and the only real thing that we noticed was the fact that everyone was going to be getting a special that morning. The people I was with as well as myself we’re going to get some Services because someone else was paying. Of course my sister wanted to chop up a blood vessel because she was annoyed. She brought everyone along so there was extra people to pay for services that everyone had. I wasn’t an advocate for the devil as well as said that there was a credit card I had and all of us could get some stuff done as well as leave before people were finished. My sister has a credit card of her own as well as can help people pay for the same services. My sister smiled as well as wanted to know if that was really something I plan to do as well as I told her that it absolutely was on the top of my mind. The two of us smiled as well as nodded. Less than an hour later, my friend as well as myself had our manicures, facials, as well as pedicures completed. The two of us left shortly after we were done so that we didn’t have to pay for anything that was not our own.

The two of us have laugh lines as well as problems with crow’s feet on our face.

The two of us have more wrinkles than any other person that I know.

The two of us have all of these wrinkles that have come from dealing with our children for year after year. My granddaughter now is hoping to get married as well as I don’t want to look like an old person. It’s important that I still look pretty young and vibrant and that means that I have to go and get botox injections. Botox can absolutely help make your skin look brighter and younger. The two of us have found that there are more things that we need to think about when fussing up to getting these injections completely. My granddaughter was a young woman and easily wanted all of us to look good and thought that I was actually looking quite seasoned lately. I was easily insulted because I was no longer 25 years old. I really didn’t feel very old and I knew that the facial spot was going to be able to give me some injections if I could get some things going with that. My friend as well as myself went to the anesthesiologist and talked about getting some facial construction surgery. One thing that the lady said for sure was that this was not easily necessary in order for all of us to do well. All of us would smile to know that we got these injections and that made us all very happy as well.

Relocating from what city to another can be a huge inconvenience.

Especially if you’re like me who accepted an incredible job but did not come up with a game plan for relocation.

A few years ago, I decided that I needed a change in my life, so I did something drastic. I accepted a job in a city that I had only visited a few times. And to make things worse, after accepting the position, I only had 2 weeks to move to the new city to start my new job. It was so stressful because at the time, I owned my home, and I wasn’t sure about the best way to handle that. Of course, there was no way to sell my house in 2 weeks, so I decided to make my home a fully furnished short term rental. Making my house a furnished short term rental property gave me the flexibility that I needed to move to the new city. I didn’t have to worry about moving any furniture, which means my relocation expense was a lot lower than it could have been. In fact, the only expense I had was gas, hotels, and food because I packed my car up with what I needed to start my new life. When I first moved, I rented a fully furnished apartment because that was the easiest option. I didn’t have to worry about any heavy lifting, everything I needed was already inside the furnished apartment. Having the option of renting my house as a furnished short term rental as well as renting a furnished apartment for myself made it easier to relocate to a new city.
