Moving is a hassle
Published January 6, 2012 | Contributed by Maria Ruiz
Moving has been the biggest hassle in the world but I’m really happy we’re here and able to make this place a home at long last. I can’t wait until I get to unpack everything completely and paint the walls and really make the house look something like a home but for now I’m just glad we’ve got the http://www.direc4u.com/tx/a/abilene/ channels hooked up and locks on all the doors and things like that. I can’t imagine why people move all the time and HOW they do it…moving’s far more expensive than I remembered it being and that’s no joke! I can’t believe how much it cost between the movers and the truck and the paint and the boxes and all that and I had to get childcare for the kids for the whole weekend just so we could get some stuff done around the house. I just don’t know how military families and others like that are able to get it done quickly and so often, it just blows my mind.
Parking in Miami
Published November 22, 2011 | Flying in and out of Chicago can be very expensive. I’ve flown from coast to coast and all up and down the Eastern Seaboard. One thing’s for certain: no matter where I go, I always keep coming back to The Windy City. Having been on many airlines, I’ve flown in every seating arrangement imaginable. You name it: Coach, Business Class and First Class – I’ve flown them all. But no matter which class I fly, one thing remains constant – the cost for parking. This is a cost that most people forget to factor into their travel expenses. This prompted me to do some research and low and behold, cheap airport parking is available. For example, if you have a need for Miami airport parking, you’ll find that it’s available at a discount. The beauty of saving money on parking is that it doesn’t affect your comfort level. Think about it: you can either get packed into the worst seats in Coach, or you can save money by planning your parking effectively. Which would you choose? I know my choice, and it doesn’t involve lowering my comfort level on a long flight. So, do your research and check out some of these services. Perhaps you’ll do this on your next vacation in Chicago! I think you’ll find a good solution to your parking woes, with just a little bit of digging.
Taking advantage of free manis at Fashion’s Night Out
Published November 3, 2011 | Guest post written by Melanie Graft
I’m really into fashion, but not nearly as much as I am with beauty. So as soon as I saw that the event schedule for this year’s Fashion’s Night Out was posted online, I knew that I wanted to take advantage of it and squeeze as many things into it as possible. I thought I was going to die when I saw that Chanel in Soho was doing free manicures with their new fall colors that they released speciicially for FNO.
It ends up that there were so many great beauty events going on around the city that I had to make sure that I looked online and came up with a reasonable schedule for it. While I was doing that, I saw some info on tv internet bundles, showed it to my roommates and we decided to switch over our service to one of them.
I did go and get a manicure at Chanel done! I even broke down and bought one of their nail polish colors that were made special, even though I can normally only afford shades sold in drug stores. I guess you have to make exceptions for special events like that.

Planning a Vacation? Consider Chicago!
Published September 30, 2011 | If you want to plan a vacation this fall, without spending an arm and a leg, consider Chicago as your destination. Chicago has a rich history, great shopping, ample tourism, and popular sporting events no matter what professional sport you favor.
Chicago has several awesome tourist areas. Navy Pier (depending on the weather) is great for wearing out the kids. The roller coasters, games and giant Ferris wheel can occupy even the busiest child, but it is fun for adults and teenagers too. Another great family destination, the Shedd Aquarium and Field Museum are just a short walk away from the pier and offer reasonably-priced entry.
For the dare-devil in your life, taking a trip to the top of the Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower) provides breathtaking views of the Lake Michigan and the surrounding city. If you’re afraid of heights, the shopping on the ground, especially near the Miracle Mile, is sure to delight. A visit to the bean would satisfy the photographer in your life, and it’s worth a visit even if you’re just using a Polaroid. Chicago offers entertainment to keep you busy day and night, no matter your age.
Chicago is a great tourist destination because are activities suitable for the entire family. If you are struggling to plan a vacation around your family, I recommend visiting blogs and websites that provide more information about the area. For example, if you were planning a San Francisco get-away, visiting this San Francisco blog would provide you with unique information. Happy vacationing!
The Olympics Are In London
Published September 28, 2011 | Folks, I think it’s time to face the facts…the 2012 Olympics are not going to be held in Chicago. But as sad as I am that our beautiful city isn’t going to host the games, as a diehard Olympics fan you know that I am still going to be travelling to London to see the games in person. But because I believe in being prepared anytime I live in Chicago, I decided to do some research about London first, through the site HomeAway. Now, if anyone wants to head to London to see the Olympics life, they will know exactly what they are getting into.
To begin with, it turns out you can find a nice place to stay at without destroying your bank account. There are plenty of London holiday apartments, and they have the benefit of being comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, and they’re affordable. Considering how much merchandise I plan to buy, finding affordable London Olympics accommodation was definitely relieving. I also found out that there would be plenty to do when I’m not watching the games.
Between visiting sites like the London Bridge, all the shops around London, and the crazy nightlife I doubt I am going to get any sleep. There are really too many places to list, so I really suggest that you check out the shopping and nightlife on your own.
But the real reason I’m going is to watch the Olympics. As a martial arts fan I’ll certainly be watching the Taekwondo, Judo, Boxing and Wrestling events. But my girlfriend has been a lifelong swimmer, so I guess I’ll be spending a lot of time watching Diving, Swimming, and Water Polo also. So to recap, at London I’ll find a nice place to stay, indescribable nightlife and shopping, and the games themselves. Are the London Olympics here yet!

Being a great example for my kindergarteners
Published August 20, 2011 | Guest post written by Kandis Brewer
One of the things that I really love about being a kindergarten teacher is me remembering just how much I was influenced by others when it came to being a young student. When you’re that young and your friend says to do something, a lot of the time you do it because you trust people so much even if they don’t deserve it. Well, I decided pretty early on that I wanted to make sure that I would be someone that students and parents could trust and feel comfortable talking to me if they had any problems.
I like to make that visible to parents when they meet me, but it never hurts to come up with new ways to remind them on this. I went online a few weeks ago to come up with some new ways to encourage parent input and interaction in my classroom. While I was looking that up, I ran across the website GETCLEARWIRELESSINTERNET.COM. After I read through it a little bit, I decided to change over my home internet service to one of the packages that I saw on there. I found all kinds of advice on just really encouraging it. Then an anonymous tip box, which I’m going to try out too.
