Namecheap makes registering domains easy and affordable. You can choose among top-level domains like.com,.org and.net, or secondary and country domains.
Siteground is my recommendation for shared hosting. They actually give you several features of managed WordPress hosting, but for shared hosting prices.
For complete managed WordPress hosting, I recommend WP Engine. In addition to excellent hosting, they now also give you free access to WordPress themes from StudioPress, one of my two go-to theme designers.
This site is built on a StudioPress theme. So is my WordPress Building Blocks site.
Elegant Themes is my other go-to WordPress theme designer. I’ve used plenty of their themes in the past, but these days I mostly recommend Divi. They offer more than 80 themes, but some of them are not up to date. However, Divi is perfect if you want tight control and lots of flexibility, but without needing to know code.
Like StudioPress, their themes are very secure, but they work on a different sales model. Instead of purchasing an individual theme, you buy an annual (or a lifetime) subscription. This lets you use all of their themes and get updates for a year. After that, you have to renew.
Here’s an article comparing StudioPress and Elegant Themes.

Kindle E-Reader I’d be lost without it. When we moved to Panama, we sold almost everything we owned. I sold or gave away several thousand books, keeping only a few (well, maybe 100 or so) that I loved and that were not available digitally. If you’re a reader and you’re going to travel or move abroad, you need one of these!
Dashlane for Online Security I use a password manager to securely store my passwords, and as someone who runs two online businesses, I have lots of passwords! The app I use is Dashlane. It stores my passwords, makes it easy for me to log into password-protected sites, and warns me if I need to change any passwords (like when there’s a big security breach somewhere I have a login). There’s a basic, free version, and a pro upgrade (I use the pro version).
It’s platform agnostic – use it on your computer, tablet, phone, etc., and easy to use.I love SI1's......more accurately, I love certain SI's, including this SI1. In this case, the grade is due to a whole mess of ridiculously teeny feathers. I'm speaking close to microscopic.
They are extremely hard to see with a 10x loupe. If you have this stone appraised and don't give the appraiser the GIA, they'l likely call it Fancy Light Yellow VS2.
That's the other thing- it's a very strong W-X light yellow. Sweet color.
Then there's the cut, again, a big plus here.
The stone has great size for a 2.02ct. I love the model- the overall shape.
The make is also very nice. The cutter used this piece of rough artistically- the facets on the bottom giving us a light show of sparkle and glitter.
We've got some awesome options specifically tailored to stones like this.
Oh, before I forget, the greatest thing about this SI1 business is that you save about a grand over a VS2.NOW Networking has connected me with so many amazing and inspirational women! Our meetings are uplifting and inspiring. When I started this group in January of 2016 I had no idea it would blossom into something this amazing. Our success is attributed to all the women in our group who consistently bring their business expertise to our meetings and heart for healing communities in our scholarship efforts.
My favorite part of working with NOW Networking is the women. The fact that we are in support of one another In our personal lives and that we focus very strongly on giving back to others who become members. Especially that we are giving support to the young women who are the recipients of our scholarship program.
I love NOW group because it is women business owners supporting and helping each other to succeed. Its very empowering to be involved with such a strong group of women. The favorite part of what I do for NOW is writing those scholarship checks to the schools for our recipients, its so very rewarding being able to take all those donations we have collected from our fabulous donors and write out those checks to help these young women.
I love being a part of NOW Networking. My favorite part is being a mentor to the students in our programs and working with these young women.I was in Toronto this weekend (from NYC) and was surprised at how low key it was - I didn't even realize it was the Grey Cup until I saw advertisements on Union Station for it. Definitely saw some people dressed up and stuff on gameday, but the "Times Square" (Dundas Square) of Toronto didn't have anything going on game-related or anything. 

From what I understand, Toronto isn't about it as much as other Provinces, though, so it's not a huge surprise. Ended up watching most of it from a sports bar where some people were, but nothing like you'd expect from a city hosting a Super Bowl (
