The Great Blog Hiatus of 2010

Hi All,


Life has proven to be too busy to keep up with a blog over the past few weeks and instead of feeling guilty about it, I'm just going to officially announce that this blog will be on hiatus until further notice...

Here are some tips/ideas to keep you going until I can return:

* Eat the Ahi Tuna appetizer at Outback, it's delicious

* If you can't afford a gift for someone, make them a dish or cookies - make them a card, but don't go without, people understand that money is tight, but you should still show that you cared enough to do SOMETHING

* Don't know if you live by a Christmas Tree Shoppe, but if you do, you should shop there

* Always search online for coupons before you go shopping... just enter the store name and add "coupon" - then click and see what comes up (example: Old Navy Coupon)

* Unplug your electronics when you're not using them, it saves $$ - I promise it does

* Learn how to make pizza dough from scratch, it's delicious and a cheap way to eat/feed guests

* If you can't afford to travel and visit friends, set aside time to have a REAL phone conversation with them, skip the text and DIAL THEM UP - reconnect

* Drink lots of water, during winter months people tend to forget that their bodies need water more than ever... heating systems tend to make you dehydrated, this can lead to headaches, dry skin and more.... drink your water.... and I strongly suggest adding a packet of Emergen-C to it every once in a while... I recommend the Tangerine flavor... yum

* Think about booking your next vacation, work and life can seem so much easier if you know when you're getting your next big break/time-out....

* I highly suggest trying the new cheddar cheese bagel twists at Dunkin' Donuts

* Buy wrapping paper and gift wrap items whenever you see them on-sale for deeply discounted costs, I can't tell you how thankful I am that I bought a few rolls of neutral colored paper after the holidays.... takes a lot of stress away when there's something you need to wrap and you have no time to shop...


I will blog again soon - but for now - enjoy the rest of Winter 2010!

Welcome 2010!

Ha Ha - another day, another month and I'm still a crappy blogger!

Where oh where to begin - the holidays were a mad dash to the end of 2009, then I went on a week long vacation, and now I'm back to work with a nasty cold!

Want to hear more??? I didn't think so...

Life Tip For January - Don't go anywhere without your wisps. You'll thank me.

Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.....

Cheers,
JJ
