Take a Warm Vacation
Feb 18th
This is a sponsored post
This winter has not been extremely cold in the US, it truly has been a very mild winter. That is good news but if you are like me I am tired of winter time and having to stay in the house. I was trying to think of somewhere to go, to get away from it all, for a while and Hawaii came to mind. Hawaii is beautiful anytime of the year with its clear blue water, warm sandy beaches and festivity everywhere.
I started searching online for places to go in Hawaii and Kauai looked like fun. More >
Raising Organic Foods
Feb 7th
Have you ever considered raising your own organic foods? Are you tired of purchasing foods at the store which are full of pesticides and other toxins? With spring coming in the next few months it might be a great time to consider raising your own food. Organically grown food at home taste better and is better for you. If you have not grown your own foods before you may consider starting off small. Start by planning a small garden space in your backyard. Make sure to use clean organic soil and try to fertilize with natural or organic fertilizers. You More >

Recently my father-in-law had colon cancer surgery. He had not been to a doctor in approximately 30 years. He had always been healthy and did not take any type medication. It was a shock to him and his family when he found out he had colon cancer and would have to have chemotherapy, radiation and then surgery. The chemotherapy and radiation went fine and so did his surgery except for few complications. The real shock to him came when he was prescribed medications More >

Taking the kids to see Billy Elliot on tour
Feb 4th
Guest post written by Carol Brighton
It’s a little funny how when I talk about my kids, I’m referring to my twenty something grown children. But I guess that it’s just a habit to keep on calling them your kids no matter what. When they were younger, it used to be like pulling teeth to get them to go to museums or go and see plays. But now they suggest going and doing that stuff all of the time. p>
My daughter let me know a while back that Billy Elliot was going to be touring near us, so we decided that More >

Walgreens and Express Scripts Call It Quits

I am sure most people have heard of Walgreens pharmacies. Express Scripts, a medical insurance network provider has decided it will no longer pay for prescriptions filled by Walgreens pharmacies nationwide as well as Duane Reade pharmacies in the New York City area. If you have Express Scripts medical insurance then this news could be very inconvenient and troublesome to you. Walgreens and Express Scripts have had a contract up until December 31, 2011. Walgreens tried to negotiate with Express Scripts but failed. As More >
Having a Choice
Jan 2nd
Thanks for the post from Sylvester Campbell
My job transferred me to New York last year, and my family was really bummed that we had to leave our home in Atlanta. I knew we had to go because it was such a great opportunity for me, and I knew the kids would get used to it. When we were choosing a house I looked up New York Electricity Rates so that I could gauge what our expenses would be each month. I found that I could actually shop around for the best rates, which I found really interesting. It’s great how our More >

All I Want For Christmas Is To See
Dec 21st
If you are like most people, as you age your sight seems to diminish more and more. You may be like me and wish your Christmas present would include better vision. Since that is probably not going to happen then the next best thing is to get a nice pair of eyeglasses. The only problem is eyeglasses are expensive and once you purchase them you are stuck. It is not safe or healthy not being able to see well. This is a real problem especially if you are purchasing glasses for someone in your family as a Christmas present. Well, More >
