Outer Banks Vacation Rental - Almost Better than Home

As many visitors have discovered for themselves, there’s just something about the south.  Maybe it’s the southern hospitality, the perpetual warm breezes and the general slower pace of life, but summer or winter, traveling to the southern states is a special treat that harkens back to a simpler time. 

If you’ve had the good fortune to visit North Carolina, and especially the Outer Banks, you’ve no doubt been charmed by this lovely vacation spot.  There are so many vacation rentals in the area, with quite a few of them being offered through top-notch local real estate agents such as Carolina Designs, that it can be difficult narrowing down to just one choice for your vacation accommodations.  

As part of a family of four, though, I’m quite partial to Seahawk, which is on the Soundside of the area.  It’s not just because the Seahawk has great views, easy access to the beach and lots of privacy, although those things are a big plus.  What makes it so attractive, especially to families, is the coziness and set-up that makes it feel like a real home.  With a game room, pool table, sports bar, two master suites, video library, 10 TVs, stereo, Xbox, grill, private pool and hot tub, why would anyone want to stay anywhere else? 

I love being at home, but most days at our house are filled with a flurry of activity.  Between school, work, piano lessons, dance classes, errands, household chores, etc., my family rarely gets to enjoy down-time just hanging out together around the house.   A leisurely vacation centered around a hub that has all the comforts of home, without having to plan any activities or entertainment – because it’s all right there at our fingertips – sounds a lot like heaven to me!

The Best Online Coupons

There is no shortage of places to get online coupons these days for various retailers, but what is a bit more uncommon, is the ability to pay with cash once you’ve made a purchase at an online store.  The great thing about being able to use your online banking information to buy things over the internet, other than the convenience, is the ability to control your expenses and avoid the possibility of overspending as you might with a credit card.  With this new system, you can even do your shopping online and then go to the physical location of the store if there’s a branch located near you and complete the transaction there!

Under The Sun

I’ve always loved summertime – I think it’s one of the reasons that I was so determined to live in California even though I grew up on the East Coast.  I was fascinated by the perpetual sunshine, the famous addresses and the vision of long, leisurely walks along the beach on a daily basis.

My reality out here on the left coast is a bit of a departure from the vision, but I enjoy it none-the-less.  I don’t live near the beach, so I don’t get to go as often as I’d like, but I love the ‘home and garden’ kind of care that many people in my neighborhood put into their landscaping.  Continue Reading »»»

Modern Sofas

Modern sofas are chic, stylish and sophisticated, but they don’t seem to be too compatible with the idea of a leisurely popcorn and movie night with the family.  I mean, they’re a far cry from the plastic-covered “look-but-don’t-touch” living rooms in many of the houses in my neighborhood growing up, but they certainly seem a lot more “glam” than “fam” to me.

The REAL Beauty of Working From Home

High fashion, high prices.  There’s really no way around that…you get what you pay for.  I’ve never been a Christian Louboutin type of girl, but I do know good style and quality when I see it.  It’s just that for me right now, with a 5 year old, a 3 year old, a coaching business and writing assignments that keep me VERY busy, the closest I come to style is making sure my sweatpants don’t have too many stains, spills or holes on them before I drop my daughter off at kindergarten.

Fat Burner: What’s in a Name?

If you’re looking for a fat burner, there is no shortage of pills and powders out there that you can try. But, my question is, wouldn’t the term “calorie burner” be just a tad more appealing? Like, “no, you’re not fat, just calorically challenged.” Half the battle of losing weight is mental, so I think the image of defeating the big, bad calorie monster is more effective than implying that one is fat. Just sayin’.

Common Sense Weight Loss

Have you found THE best, secret weight loss formula that works for EVERYONE yet?  No?  I thought not.  Endless infomercials and spam emails will suggest that they have the weight loss drinks, powders, pills or plans that will end your dieting angst forever.  What they often don’t tell you is that you should check with your doctor before beginning any weight loss program and that there are really no (healthy) shortcuts to losing weight.  The most effective way to stay healthy and get physically fit is to exercise regularly and burn more calories than you consume.  But, you knew that, right? ;-)

Natural Hair Loss Treatments

You’ve seen the commercials.   Late at night when there’s nothing else on but TV shows from the ‘70’s, classic old movies and infomercials.  You want to change the channel but something about those testimonials seems so mesmerizing.  Well, before you whip out your credit card and tiptoe with your cell phone to a quiet corner of the bedroom, wait until morning and do some research online for natural hair loss treatments first.  If your online search still leaves you seeking a solution, don’t worry…along with Barnaby Jones and Bette Davis, that same infomercial will be there tomorrow night.  Same time, same channel.
