Yours, Mines, Ours


With spring in the air & summer around the corner planning outdoor activities and or vacations are the norm. Credit card expenditures are grand & wedding planning can be stressful, exciting, & overwhelming for the bride & groom, so keep credit cards to a limit of one for planning hotels, travel, & rental reservations.


Seeking out professionals and their services are highly recommended. Many places offer extended services, recently my sister married and used, "Davids Bridal". The wedding was a success, more importantly they planned the yours, mines & ours, change! Also for quick at your service travel go to viptravelandcruises.com a ytb travel site.


Event planning, just married or vacationing is exciting but staying together and returning home with finances in place is key. When planning your special 1 day event or an occasion cut corners~ serve breakfast/brunch during reception or hors d`oeuvres & dessert. True friends won't complain for the lack of food and family should understand.


Goals and dreams differ have enough money to entertain your individual self and the things that are important to you, have an our romance savings, dreams and things together account. Consultants will help you plan your wedding day/special events within your budget and help in determining whats best for you. So start out smart, think ahead, concentrate on the marriage and create happy days, romance and ever after memoir's. For more info concerning event planning post me a comment@ letitaatyourservice.blogspot.com

Are We Killing Our Children's Free Will?


As I begun to write this article it weighed heavily on me as these are matters that are close, dear and near to my heart. Brevity is key here, however the importance of this matter was far to demanding to dismiss. I'll be as concise as possible. The Millennium's generation Y, born 1977-1998 is experiencing family breakdown. To be precise the age group 12-18 is not given the opportunity of free will and expression of self. Family values, morals are still relevant also who and or what has raised your child. When you find out your child is drinking, smoking pot, having sex or what they call is non-sexual (oral), with the same sex or heterosexual these are all influenced by the who's and the what's raising your children. How its viewed and the emphasis we attach determines its power. Have we failed at understanding this generation? Becoming spiritual hypocrites and completely disassociating ourselves and our hidden experiences from this "New Generation", yet at one point we all were a "New Generation", to the previous one past. Are we self absorbed workaholics, working to give them better and not raise them better?Ultimately our survival instincts and uninformed, uneducated misconceptions has caused generational tension & friction. In comparison to the informal, arrogant, whining, digital savvy, lacking structure and supervision generation. We raise questions to their identities, we place attention on areas that may require their own growth or hopes they will grow out of. We tell them not to drink /smoke, but we leave them to be entertained by those who do. We want them to speak up and out, but we are silenced and don't speak careful without judgement, kindness, or objectively. We don't place ourselves in & out of the conversations we engage them in. We must pay attention and listen, because theirs and our silence is killing our children's free will. We are forced to change or they will not approach us with topics that are near and dear to them. Let's save them from us, lets turn on the basement lights only to find~ "dirty clothes" and not dead moments.

NWLB No Worker Looks to Benefit

No Worker Left Behind is a program and opportunity offered by the state in which funding is released for dislocated workers. Income free standing by the government, which is being issued by the city. The city in which you reside decides if you are the right individual to qualify for school. Of course there are government/state qualifications but, who gets the buck is determined ultimately by the city. In 2005 I tried to benefit from no worker left behind funding after being laid off my job. The long process and much required paper work was not at all bothersome anticipating the end results. The choice to pick a curriculum and school from a list decided by what the city calls qualified careers in your area, because ultimately the process is to lead you towards an employed future. My process pretty much ended after I found a job and was told by a career counselor you can not work while going to school. Now remind you I was not working during the year long process it took. Also I was told the career path I chose even though it was apart of their list (of viable future employment) was not a career they would qualify me for. Does the government & our governor know they are giving monies to a city that isn't giving it to the list of participants that fill there "Work Force One Stop", offices daily. Are we allowing this to continue because of our desires for a better and brighter future, by simply being a statistic numbered to keep the process of funding flowing in our state. Negligently Wagering our futures & allowing the Legislator the Benefit. Do you know of someone who has benefited from N.W.L.B please let "nuslethertalk" know, we would like to post a good report for such an imperative issue.
