People who are dealing with a certain type of addiction are sometimes at a lost. To open is difficult; sometimes people are in denial of their addiction. But, with InTheRooms , a global recovery community, everybody is welcome to reach out to people worldwide 24/7, to share their problems, thoughts, experiences, feelings, hopes and willingness to recover. The option is all yours; your privacy is one of their main concerns. You can pick where you think you need to join, either as someone who is seeking help, or one who is in recovery or you are a friend or family member of someone seeking recovery. InTheRooms will do their best to Help, Inform, Touch, Connect and Heal (HITCH) those who are experiencing any type of addiction.
There is a new feature that has been added to InTheRooms recently. If you have Facebook, you can now add the InTheRooms Facebook App in your Facebook profile and start inviting your friends in recovery to the community. You can also add a box in your profile that will show how much time you have in recovery. If you want to protect your anonymity, you have the option of not publicly displaying a box on your Facebook profile.
Joining InTheRooms is free. You can easily sign-up anytime at intherooms.com. Join and get healed.
Yes, you read it right. Pet Airways is the first commercial airline for pets only. The owners are husband and wife Alysa Binder and Dan Wiesel who had a stressful experience when they flew in a cargo hold their Jack Russel terrier named Zoe. That experience convinced them to have an airline so that pet owners will have an option when they transport their pets from one city to another. So yesterday was the first flight for Pet Airways that took off from Republic Airport in Farmingdale, NY. Initially, Pet Airways will be flying between five major cities – New York, Washington, Chicago, Denver and Los Angeles. They are already booked for the next two months. One-way fare starts from $149, not too far what passenger airlines charge which is from $100 to $275 depending on the carrier. When flying with Pet Airways, your pets won’t be at the cargo section but in the main cabin of a Suburban Air freight plane, which was retooled and lined with carriers in place of seats. There will be about 50 pets in each flight and they will be escorted to the plane by attendants that will check them every 15 minutes during the flight. Your pets are also given pre-boarding walks and bathroom breaks. And, on every airport they are flying, pet airways created a “pet lounge” for future fliers to wait and sniff before flights. Pet Airways will be adding more flights and cities very soon.
I am one very curious mom about this new pet airline. Something new and unique. credit: news.yahoo.com
Our next door neighbor is going on a vacation this coming week. We are going to babysit and walk their dog everyday while they are away. They have been our neighbors for seven years and the first one to welcome us on the first day we moved into this area. They love our daughter and sometimes Isabella would spend an afternoon with them at their backyard playing with Smooth, the dog. You know why she is called Smooth? It is because of her hair, so smooth and shiny. Our neighbor told us that Smooth used to smell so stinky, scratching and shedding her air like crazy. They have brought her to the vet but still she cannot stop scratching. Then, a fellow dog owner who goes to the same vet suggested to them to try using dogosuds from Dinovite. Actually, this person gave them a sample of the lavender dogosuds dog shampoo to try. My neighbor said that dogosuds lathers beautifully but rinses easily leaving the dog smelling so good. After using it, Smooth’s stinky smell was gone and the smell lasted for a long time. Her hair got shiny, making them change her name to Smooth.
Is your dog itching, scratching and stinking beyond belief? Dogosuds is a dog shampoo that you can buy from dinovite.com. It cleans and leaves a wonderful smell on your dog and it is also a natural flea deterrent. It contains no chemicals or perfumes that can irritate your dog’s skin. They are available in four blends: essential oil blend, lavender, peppermint/tea tree and the unscented one. So if you have problems with your dog smell, try using dogosuds shampoo on her to give your pet that new dog smell.
Other than furniture and household items, we go to Ikea to eat. Their Swedish meatballs paired with mashed potatoes with gravy and lingon berries on the side. Besides meatballs, Ikea serves, breakfast, ribs, chicken and fries, wraps, desserts, soft ice cream, hotdogs and drinks. Don’t forget, there is more at the Swedish market shop. The prices are very reasonable, one meal will only coat you around $5 to $6. So next time when you go to Ikea, do not worry if you have not eaten yet, you will not get hungry at Ikea. I love IKEA, one of our favorite stores.
Now that school is over, my daughter stays with her step sister at home. I know she misses me a lot and I feel bad that I have to leave her for work. Probably tomorrow I will bring her with me since I will not be staying the whole day at the office. There is one extra computer at my job so she can watch her favorite kids show such as Barney, Dora the explorer, blue’s clues, Disney channel, nick jr at Spreety TV Online. We can bring our kids as long as they do not interrupt your work but I was always hesitant because my daughter gets bored easily. My friend recommended to try Spreety TV Online : Watch TV Shows Online Free, where you can watch your favorite TV shows online legally. This is indeed a savior plus mommy can now watch her favorite reality TV shows during lunch break at work too.
We went to the Apple Store again last July 4th to check the availability of the iphone 3Gs at the store. Still, the 16GB is out of stock but they have the 32GB available. To buy the 32GB instead would seem to be expensive for $299. That is already a price for two iphones: one 16GB 3Gs and one 3G. Apple rep just gave us a business card instructing us to give them a call to check availability. Hubby can wait. He still has his two year old Iphone (first generation). In the meantime, hubby checked their display while my daughter enjoyed playing games.
I was cleaning my computer table over the weekend and I found phone cards, some are even unused but pass the expiration date. I already forget that I have bought those phone cards since I have not been using them anymore. This is the effect of embracing digital technology into our lives. I used to call my family back in the Philippines by using a phone card but this stopped when we subscribed to Charter Communications. Charter Communications is one of the leading providers of high speed internet, digital cable and phone services.
Since we have Charter, I keep in touch with my family using the internet. Almost every day we exchange video and instant messaging using Charter’s high speed internet service. Another worth noticing too is that we have not been to a movie theater for how many months now. Our movie nights are brought to life with Charter movies on demand. It is more fun and relaxing to watch your favorite movies at home with your family and kids without having to fight for parking.
As a way of thanking its valuable and loyal customers, Charter is once again sponsoring a contest by simply submitting your story on how you bring your home to life.
