Winter Get-Away

This is a sponsored post written by me

It has really been a mild winter here in the US. Good news right but you may be like me and tired of having to stay in the house. I am ready to get out and go somewhere interesting. Trying to think of somewhere nice to visit, Hawaii came to mind. Hawaii is always beautiful anytime of the year. Closing my eyes I could see its clear blue water, warm sandy beaches and celebration everywhere.

I was looking online for places to go in Hawaii and Kauai popped up. Kauai is extremely charming with More >

Traveling to St. Louis

One place I have not visited in a long time is St. Louis. It has been many years since I have been there and I was just thinking the other day about places I may want to visit in the upcoming months. St. Louis came to mind and I was thinking about all the things there are to do there. St. Louis has a host of things sights and experiences to be had. There is a chance to do some great sightseeing in St. Louis. The best place to get a bird’s eye view of the city is by taking More >

Time is really hard for people since the economy has taken a nosedive into the sewer. With high unemployment as well as escalating food and gas costs it really makes it hard on people. Not only are these costs on the rise but so are the costs of medications. It makes it extremely hard on people which have to take medications and do not have insurance. It is extremely hard to afford insurance if you do not work for a company which has More >

Have You Visited London

Have you ever considered visiting London? Americans just go bonkers over all of the pomp and stance of the English culture. With Kings, Queens, princes and princesses it all intrigues Americans and others around the world. If you find the English culture interesting then why not go there and see what is really like. If you have visited grand old England have you visited London yet? If you have not been to London then it may be a great time to consider going since the 2012 Olympics will be held there.

By carefully crafting a business trip to London you may More >

Are You Thinking of Moving

If you feel as if you are living in a depressed area of America and are considering moving then one place you may want to consider is Canada. Canada is a beautiful land with much to offer. Canada has approximately 1/10 the population of the US. This ultimately creates a situation of less competition for the jobs which are becoming available. Canada created approximately 10,000 more new jobs than were created in America last year. Canada’s economic recovery seems to be outpacing the US’s and there were as much as five times the jobs created as economists had predicted. There More >

Can You Really Afford A Vacation

The economy is tough today. With rising unemployment, a down turned economy worldwide and the lack of job creation most people feel as if it is a depressing situation. You may think it is hard enough to pay the bills and eat so you really cannot afford to take a vacation this year. Even though it has been a tough couple of years everyone needs a break once in a while. Sitting around looking at four walls and being depressed will not help your situation. Not only is this unfair to you but your family as well.

Get Away and Ski

Well, winter is here and it might be a great time to get away for a long weekend. With Valentine’s Day coming up soon it might be a fabulous time to take your honey on a weekend ski trip. One of the most breathtaking and exhilarating ski resorts is Whistler. Whistler, an Olympic standard ski resort, is situated in the Vancouver Canada area. Many are familiar with the Whistler ski resort from the televised Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic & Paralympic Games. It is located on 8,000+ acres of ski and snowboard landscape which includes 12 alpine bowls, 3 glaciers, 200 More >

Have You Been to England?

There are many places to visit which are strung with intriguing views, nightspots and cuisine but one you may have not considered, which has a host of these, is England. Grand old England with its history, sights, sounds and delicacies is a great spot to visit for a while. There is so much to do and see that spending a day or two may not be enough, as you will be hooked. With the events of the Royals recently happening Americans as well as others are following the English with vigor. If you plan to experience some of the pomp More >

Where Do I Get My Prescriptions Filled Now?

If you have Express Scripts medical insurance then you may be asking yourself that very question. Express Scripts has decided to no longer pay for prescriptions filled at any Walgreens or New York City area Duane Reade pharmacies. If this is the pharmacy you have used in the past then you will no longer be able to do so. Walgreens and Express Scripts had a contract up until December 31, 2011 at which time it expired. Walgreens pharmacies tired to negotiate with Express Scripts More >

Winter Has Finally Set In

It has been unusually warm in the southern US this year with 60 and 70 degree days and around 50 degrees at night. This has helped tremendously on the heating bills but it has also made us Southerners somewhat oblivious to winter time. Well, this week has totally been different with cold nights in the teens and highs during the day in the 40’s. There was also snow flurries today which means we may not escape snowstorms this year. With the cold weather imminent it would be a great time to take a midwinter vacation to some warm exotic land.
