In January of 2010, I took this photo of New Orleans from the Hurricane Hunters flight that I was on.
Thanks for the post from Sylvester Campbell
The Weather Channel on DIRECTV led me to believe this day would be ruled by rain and fog. They were right. This day begged for lit candles, hot baths, and PJ’s all day. Norah Jones in the background plays low and soft and the house takes on a feeling of warmth and comfort. Hot Soup was quickly becoming a necessity. The thought of it filtered its way through my frontal lobe and refused to leave. I could no longer listen to the explosion of ideas detailing the many ways I could create a hot bubbly elixir to comfort us from the inside out. I made my way to the kitchen and began. Spicy Vegetable Soup was born. I poured the kaleidoscope of vegetables into large mugs. The spoon rested on the saucer and even it yearned to taste. The smell alone left me drunk with pleasure. I lifted the mug and watched the steam dance before my eyes. The taste was pure satisfaction and I knew even if I didn’t accomplish another thing today, this day was spent very well.
Saving Money
Post contributed by Leonard Phelps
There are so many ways to save money nowadays, I don’t have any idea why more people don’t take advantage. It’s one thing not to use coupons but it’s totally another thing to just waste money. I’ve been doing some research about Texas electricity providers and that’s helped me put things in perspective in terms of what’s out there for us to take advantage of. I’ve been selling some of our old clothes on Ebay and I’ve even started buying in bulk to knock a few dollars off our monthly grocery bills. My husband is happy our money is stretching farther and I’m excited to have stashed away enough money already to get us started on a vacation fund. It’s funny how much money there is hidden everywhere in your life if only you stop to take a look at where you can get it from. I just don’t know why more people don’t try to slash their bills in every way possible. There’s something to be said for being vigilant about your money!
The Real Estate Game
Thanks for the article from Glenda Hanson
Buying and selling real estate is just what I do and I’ve loved every minute
of it. The last couple of years have been really hard, obviously, but I’m
getting through it and actually making a lot of progress when it comes to having
my cards in order. I had gotten into investment properties and those were doing
well as flip houses but now it turns out they make me more money when I rent
them out. I deck them out with CABLE
TELEVISION and granite countertops and people go crazy over them – it’s a
win win! I like being so good at what I do and I’m really proud of myself for
weathering this economic storm so well…it’s been a tough road but I’m making it
through. My wife wants to become a part of the business, too, and I’m all for it
although I think she’ll make a better realtor than a house flipper! I guess she
can just stick to teaching until she figures
out exactly how she’s going to fit into the puzzle.

There was one thing that I promised my kids a while back, that as soon as
they were old enough that I would take them to Disney World. I’ve always thought
that it’s silly when people take very small children there because if a kid is 1
or 2 they probably won’t remember all of that great stuff. Better to save a trip
to Disney for when the child is old enough to remember loving it, or at least
that’s my way of thinking.
Our kids are finally that age, so I’m planning a trip for us to go on to
Disney while they’re on fall break this year. While I was looking up some
information for the trip before I booked it, I ran across the website www.getCLEARwirelessinternet.com.
I read through and decided right then to sign up for one of the internet
packages that I saw on there.
I know that Walt Disney World is going to be so magical for them! I know that it was for me
when my parents finally took me to it at the age of 10 years old
