ATV Safety

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on October 4, 2011 ]

A friend of mine recently had an accident on an ATV (all terrain vehicle).  He suffered a couple of broken bones and several bad bruises and it will be 6 weeks or so before he is fully recovered.  It could have been much worse. I have never been a fan of ATVs and never let Read the full post…

A Little Inspiration

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on September 16, 2011 ]

Yesterday I was thinking about how hard it is sometimes to go exercise.  Believe it or not, I really am lazy at heart.  I long to lay in bed till at least 7 (seems pitiful that 7 would be a luxury doesn’t it?), eat a big breakfast of pancakes and read the newspaper.  But that Read the full post…

Join The Coupon Craze

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on September 13, 2011 ]

If you haven’t joined the coupon craze, you’re missing out on an opportunity to save money.  Now I’m not talking about extreme couponing like on the TV show but just making some effort to cut your grocery bill, putting that money to use elsewhere.  I’ve clipped coupons for years but often I’d forget to use Read the full post…
