Weekend Fun

The weekends are great mainly because there is no school NOR is there any work. That in itself is good enough to make for a great weekend! Add a little backyard fun and your house will be everyone's home-away-from-home. Get yourself a slip and slid and turn on those sprinklers; put some weiners and hamburgers on the grill; get the economy sized bubbles and pour them in large shallow pans, bend up wire hangers into a circular shape and have a wonderful time!

Tropical Paradise

Turn your backyard into a tropical paradise. Hang white lights all over the backyard and add other touches that remind you of the islands. Get some passion fruit, cut them into bite-sized pieces and lay them out along with lawn chairs. If you don't have a backyard or if you're worried about the bugs, then you can always do this in an extra room in the house or on a screened porch area.  The whole purpose is to create a light and breezy environment that makes you feel like you are on a tropical island vacation.

Spa Day

Hey, who doesn't enjoy being pampered? If you are like us, we love when we can lay back and be treated like royalty. In some cases, that is not feasible because of lack of funds or there are no spas in the area. Well, you don't have to spend alot of money to enjoy a spa day. Get yourself a few body oils that you enjoy, put on a robe and soak in a nice hot tub of water. If you have a significant other, this is even better because you can take turns giving each other massages with the body oil. Remember, you do NOT have to buy expensive spa packages in order to have a relaxing spa day at home.

It's Summertime

Trying to impress someone this summer? Many people run to the gym, which is fine if that is what you would like to do, but we have a few other suggestions. First of all, you could go get a pedicure, yes, this is for the men also. Another thing you could do is go shopping for weather appropriate gear. Don't be afraid of color! Get out there and get some sleeve-less shirts and open-toed shoes, which we are not afraid to wear because we have already gotten our pedicures. The most important thing here is to do something for yourself and look good so that you feel good and project confidence.

Think Outside of the Box
	Check out some of the water parks in the area. It's getting hotter everyday, so go to the neighborhood pool or your local Y.M.C.A. Places like Sea World or Wet-n-Wild are great choices for the summer because they cool you down while you're having fun. Think outside of the box this summer and create fun where there is none!
