I have to say, I really enjoy using Dermitage.  It’s a little expensive at retail price, but most of us who tried it say it really works.  Unfortunately I don’t have any before or after photos of myself otherwise I’d post them here for everyone to see. All in all, it was a great experience using this product and I think I would continue using it for at least a few more months.

Remember, everyone, I’m open to questions! I just added a link on the right hand side if you want to contact me!

1. The Mega Anti-Wrinkle Cream Test
   Something I coordinated with 5 friends that got a total of 30 people testing over 200 products in the past year.  I’m glad to say that this is finally done and we have determined the top 3 products. One of the women we know who tested it even posted a video review on Youtube. Check out the post here. [Updated 2/20/2009]

2. Different ways to get some free cash
   Collecting unemployment after being laid off is OK, but it’s not going to pay off my house.  I’m getting together with a few co-workers to test one method each.  We’re currently looking at a few selling cash for gold services and various government grant programs.
3. Selling cash for gold – the hands on test
   I have a pair of earrings that have been broken for years.  I found 2 online companies and sent in 1 each, and compared it with what my local jeweler offered.

I was recently laid off after working for a large automaker for the past 9 years (serious evil).  Now that I have tons of time on my hands, I thought I’d start writing a blog to meet some new friends, share my thoughts, and tell people about my interests and research in senseless things =)

Aside from having more time to take care of my family and playing with the dog, I’ve also decided to set some goals for myself now that I’m unemployed.  I made a little list based on what I know and love:

1. I’m 36 years old, and I’m not getting any younger
2. I am not rich
3. I have a lot of experience in marketing (my old job)
4. I have a lot of skin care products
5. I have a lot of clothes
6. I love to cook
7. I love watching House M.D.
8. I love my daughter, my husband, and money (in that order)
9. I like helping people
10. I need to look for a job or find something to make ends meet

Now, these 10 things may seem really boring alone, but together I think I’ve found my inspiration.

I’m going to review a whole bunch of stuff and teach people how to do things!

So that’s it.  That’s what this blog will be for.  Look for some really interesting stuff in the coming days/weeks!
