Specific fears that drivers share are potential breakdowns or involvement in an accident. Some of those feelings have a basis in the notion of abandonment in unfamiliar territory where there may be little traffic to offer help. Paying close attention to maintenance requirements associated with the car, not to mention being safe and conscientious behind the wheel, can help minimize these situations.

All y’all!  I know you are busy, busy doing ALL the homemaking things right now.  Busting out the sewing machine and mixers, making masks and baking bread.  Yep, me too.  And if you have a KitchenAid Stand Mixer like me, you may also be missing your speed control knob because it broke (insert sad face here!).  

Sending invitations with photos is now easier than ever before, even for those anxious to plan a wedding party. Some are set in the customary style of light pink, light blue, or even lavender with a white background. Designs are formalized to represent the classic wedding cake with all of its trimmings, the curves and the flowers that resemble the newlywed’s latest journey into divine matrimony. The website gives new couples the option to design their own invitations in a way that is DIY-friendly.

Internship certainly counts toward professional experience. You’ve spent months in a real-world work environment, learned practical skills, contributed to the delivery of work goals and possibly been paid for it. In fact, over the years, the structure of internships has evolved greatly leading to a blurring of the lines separating an intern from a full-time employee. This has sometimes stirred controversy given that interns are compensated far less (if at all) than full-time employees.

I can’t start my day without a cup of Joe.  Good thing I just read a magazine article the other day that said people who drank three to five cups of coffee per day had a 15% lower chance of death from diabetes and heart disease than those who didn’t sip java.

What I put in my mug matters though.  I’m a straight in my veins kind of girl 😉  Black coffee is my jam, better yet shots of espresso is where it’s really at for me.

Your home’s gutter system is an area that is easy to forget about until problems arise. If damaged or old gutters aren’t repaired or replaced promptly, they can cause even more issues that are expensive to reverse.

Hybrid cars are growing in popularity, and there are many reasons why. For some, this is an opportunity to save on gas without having to rely solely on electric power.

Happy New year, everyone – I hope you all had a great Christmas. I thought it would be fun to do a post about New Year’s Resolutions.
