Found a new home & printer

Pure Essence was sponsored before and the sponsor died so I moved it to hostquack.com. So far I’m very happy with the support and server speed. I can tell a huge difference between the new server and my old. I hope the new home will be a lot better. Pure Essence had suffered a lot of down time due to running out of bandwidth and server down time in the past months. I hope it will be up 99.9% of the time as hostquack.com guarantees

On the other hand, we bought a printer!! Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction Center with Wireless and Ethernet Network Interfaces is our new and FIRST printer. We bought it from Bestbuy for only $200. We never owned a printer before. It obviously is inconvenient from time to time. Now we’ve got a laser network printer that may act as a copy machine & fax machine. It almost feels like being spoiled. Hahaha!

After we purchased the printer, I did a little more research on it. I was surprised to find that we got an awesome deal (even without Andy’s employee discount since it was on sale) and the reviews for this printer are very positive. Hurray!

Credit Card Lost

i have to say yesterday morning something unbelievably happened. when i walked out the house, i saw a letter from my credit card company informing me there are unusual activities on my account that i will need to call them to confirm the charges. i felt suspicious. when i opened my wallet and looked for my credit card.. i jumped off my feet.. it was NOT THERE! right a way i called the company.. from what i heard from them, i believed i lost the card at international club last time when andy and i were at chicago. i couldn’t believe i didn’t even know that i lost it. numerous charges were added to the account afterwards. the reason they thought it’s unusual was probably because most of them are from chicago area and i live iowa. i couldn’t believe:

(1) i lost my credit card
(2) i didn’t even know about it
(3) my credit card company didn’t hold me accounted for those charges but instead informed me about the misuse

i thought that was pretty crazy but it turned out nice on my side so i’m happy i had to tell my hosting company to wait for my new credit card tho =P hopefully it will arrive soon.
