There’s nothing like a deep breath of fresh air. Those of us who are in the business of renovating houses, know how important this is. With all the chemicals and dust, this is often complicated to achieve. That is why my crew and I always bring a Predator 1200 to every site. Abatement Technologies always makes quality products using impressive technology for the safety of their customers. Compact and easily movable, the four filter stages remove odors, air particles, and toxins.
So, breathe…and get to work!

During an exceptionally cold day last winter, I was heading out of my apartment to scrape the ice off my car so I could drive to work. I have to go down 3 flights of stairs outside when I leave my apartment. Since we had had freezing rain the night before, I knew I needed to be careful going down the steps. I took a few extremely cautious steps down the stairs, gripping the railing for dear life. I was ok. Sigh of relief. Took another step. Feet gone. BAM! Slammed down three steps to land in a heap at the bottom of the stairs.
My neck, back, and hips were messed up for weeks. It was several days before I could even turn my neck. And my butt was literally black.
GET THESE SHOES!

Ah, the red toolbox. A staple in American society. Every little boy dreams of growing up, owning a home with a garage, and having his own red toolbox to do his honey-do list on weekends with. And, as is always the way with men, the bigger, the better! The more tools to fix with.

Every year the Saturday after Thanksgiving, my family and I decorate our house with Christmas lights. Last year, I was walking across what my family and I refer to as, “The Hill” and my foot caught.
There’s that moment when you trip, the slow motion moment, where you know what is happening. You are about to fall. Your brain is not going fast enough to know what to do and your body tenses trying to brace itself for what is coming, possible pain. Possible break. Definite humiliation.
My hands were caught in my jacket pockets. My knee hit first, then my shoulder followed by a whip of my head to the ground.
But the fall wasn’t the end. I couldn’t tell what was happening. I just felt this pain. All over. It kept moving. Then I knew. I was rolling. Rolling down the hill. When I stopped my husband and kids came running over, laughing…
As it turns out my husband had left an extension cord lying in the grass where no one could see it. That night I went online to First Place Supply and ordered an EZ-Coil® Power Cord Reel. Not ever bruising the entire side of my body, scraping my face rolling down a hill, and experiencing the humiliation of my family laughing at me was worth the $456.
