Groovy and cool! A modern take on this (although it's over 25 years old) is the flying blimp in "Blade Runner" enticing people to live off world in comfort and luxury.
Nice to be reminded that space didn't used to be just Star Trek or Star Wars (blech).
@rmbnn - No, but Star Trek and Star Wars helped many generations expand their mind past reality and into the possible. People got onto the moon, but these movies and shows helped them dream of more than that, culturally and scientifically. The power of Star Trek is so much that NASA named its first space shuttle Enterprise, after the public started a letter writing campaign.
Nothing "blech" about inspiring generations to look at the stars and stimulate their imaginations.
I wouldn't buy the seventh one - "The Moon" on account of the defective spelling of "humanity's". Sheesh.
And I myself left out a dash!
Yes, I would buy the Moon poster today if not for the misspelling.
Looks like the misspelling has been fixed on the Moon poster- totally going to get one of these for my boyfriend!
I'd like to say thank you for featuring my poster "Wonders of the Solar System" on here. I will be releasing a newer version of it in the coming months. I was very happy to see it on here.
The Venus one is amazing!
"I can't see a thing on the surface of Venus!"
"Why not?"
"Because it's covered with a dense layer of clouds."
"Well, what are clouds?"
"Water, of course! Therefore, Venus must have an awful lot of water on it. Therefore, the surface must be wet."
"Well, if the surface is wet, it's probably a swamp."
"If there's a swamp, there's ferns, if there's ferns, maybe there's even dinosaurs!"
"Observation: you couldn't see a thing."
"Conclusion: dinosaurs."
It is possible to start at any given observation and conclude with dinosaurs. True fact.
thank you so much for featuring not one but two of my outer space prints!!!! wow! i am so honored!!!! i can not begin to tell you how much it means to me!
Thanks for featuring my poster (#10). I am sure I have made additional sales thanks to this post, even a year later. Thanks again!

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAU) - After months of discussion about Public Access television concerns, Wausau's City Council passed policies and operating guidelines approved by the Finance Committee.
Without further discussion Tuesday, the council unanimously approved changes creating guidelines to operate the local public access channels. Alderman Keene Winters says they eliminated the biggest problem. "The sticking point on this had been whether we were going to charge content producers, and we stripped out charging content producers. Now, that doesn't mean we're still not committed to finding revenues to do this, for advertising, DVD sales, and the like, and we're going to go ahead and work on that."
There is discussion of creating a non-profit group to help operate Wausau Public Access and help raise operating funds. Winters believes the council would be receptive to that. "I think we would be interested in having a Friends of Wausau Public Access, just like you have a Friends of Public Television, and so to the extent people are working on that, we would certainly welcome that."
Area churches and a few other groups were opposed to paying to air programs they produced. Public Access Coordinator David Dickenson is glad to see the city remove the financial barrier for local producers. "What that means for me is I don't have this fear of somebody coming to me saying here, I have a show, I want you to put it on, and I have to ask them for money or turn them away. This keeps the ability of public access and get local producers on the air, which is what I want to do."
Winters says it's good to have the operating policy in place. He is one of several city leaders that will help Public Access develop a business plan to generate revenue and become sustainable without relying entirely on franchise fees paid by Charter Cable.

My husband, the new global sports editor for The Associated Press, is currently in Sochi, Russia, helping lead his company's coverage of the Winter Olympics. (He led Super Bowl coverage on Sunday night and then jetted to Russia on Monday night.)
He is working with a tremendous team of reporters, editors, photographers and videographers covering every angle of the Games.
We've texted with him on Textfree but only talked to him once via FaceTime since he landed. He showed us his hotel room (not ghastly at all – in fact quite nice) and the area outside his balcony. I know he is 11 hours from Arizona (9 from the East Coast) but I haven't quite figured out his work schedule yet – if he's working a 9 to 9-type shift or more 11 to 11. So I'm never quite sure when he'll try to call on Face Time or when he's asleep. Sometimes I can tell by social media when he's awake – if he's Tweeting or posting on Facebook.
The kids are excited about him being in Russia. The 6-year-old doesn't quite get the time difference. She couldn't understand why he was just waking up when it was her bedtime the other night. The 10-year-old has impressed some friends with his location and the 12-year-old is concerned about him being blown up by terrorists.
The last time he covered a winter Olympics, Rose was 10 months old. He only went to Salt Lake City but it was the year after 9-11 so I made him carry a satellite-based texting device so he could get in touch with me if the cell towers were knocked out. I'm far more relaxed this time but I did ask for his secretary's number just in case.
Meanwhile back at home, my winter Olympics is far less exciting. I am only organizing a team of one — me. My global coverage is through Facebook and it consists of me taking photos of things in my garage asking should I get rid of them or save them, such as an old Tivo, VHS player, and the Sega Dreamcast? (Michael actually texted from Russia on the Dreamcast. He says keep it so he can sell it.)
My job this month is to clean out the rest of the house and pack up about half of our possessions to stage the house to sell and pretend like three children don't live here. I am trying to sell a Pottery Barn train table, an adorable backyard playhouse, a metal picnic table and a printer online. I also need to hire someone to replace the pool deck, hire someone to add more rocks to the yard (a Phoenix thing – they rake rocks, it's crazy), hire someone to trim the trees, hire someone to replace my carpet and fix some drywall. We're trying to make the house perfect to sell. My shift runs from 6 to 10:30.
So while I am excited for him that he has a fabulous new job that loves, I am bored to tears for myself cleaning out a house. On the upside I did run across four love letters he wrote to me in college when I studied abroad in Italy. They were all about his first few months working for the AP and the first sports stories he got to cover. (A Braves player profile and he interviewed Tommy Lasorda.) Not much has changed.
How do you communicate with your spouse when he or she is traveling? Do you use FaceTime? Would you be worried if your spouse was in Sochi? Would you keep the Sony Dreamcast to sell? How much can I get for it? Along those same lines, how much can I get for the Star Wars walking guy in the photo? (The prices vary online from $36 to $300 — what's it worth?)

That Playroom…. OMG, what a dump! "The playroom didn't always look like this", yeah – when you first moved in. What is the matter with you for allowing such a mess to happen. That is just poor parenting to allow for such a disaster to happen. Disgusting.
Very proud of you – another day with original thoughts and ideas rather than cutting and pasting others thoughts and ideas. As for making Michael carry a satellite texting device incase cell towers get knocked out you are too paranoid. When I travel on business my wife knows I'm out making money to pay the mortgage so I don't have to check in with her. And as a husband if I came home to a playroom like that I would blow a gasket. Clean up that playroom!
February 7th, 2014
6:19 am
If either my husband or I travel for work (yes, we both travel occasionally), honestly email and texting is good enough. We're never gone more than 3-5 days, so it's not a big deal. I might call a couple of times to talk to our son, but when you travel you're pretty busy with work and the spouse left at home is also busy with work and the house/kid. We don't stress, no paranoia, etc. That said, if my husband were in Sochi given the security issues, I might be a touch concerned, but not trying to reach him everyday.
February 7th, 2014
7:16 am
TWG…your play room looks bad but I think our garage looks worse than yours. We have lived here for 16 years though. Will you have a garage when you move? Do you need two cars? Good luck. I am not excited about organizing either. I just cleaned out one closet yesterday and it was not fun.
February 7th, 2014
7:18 am
I would make the kids clean that play room. No way would I allow that mess to be made then go and clean it myself. What does that teach your kids? They need to learn early on that this is not acceptable!
February 7th, 2014
7:38 am
I would donate the Sony Dreamcast to a children's home. Give your children each a box and allow them to pack up their favorites from the playroom for the new home. Then you can go through the rest and see if there is anything special you would like to keep. For example I have a box of trains, a cowboy fort set, and some beautiful wooden paper dolls in my special box. Email is the way to communicate. Otherwise there is all this extra stress added to be available for the call or other form of communication. For any other jobs if I were you I would concentrate on hiring others to complete the tasks, and that includes maid service to keep the house show ready. Good luck and go outside and play with your children today.

…about everything you have written and the pictures, too – WOW.
Can't tell if you're beotching and moaning "poor, poor, pitiful me" or bragging on your hubby, or both!
February 7th, 2014
8:03 am
Is it ever ok to brag or complain? Not sure why folks have to fuss about it. Some people want others to think their life is always wonderful NEWSFLASH…everyone has to deal with yuck in their lives. Hopefully, you will have a day worth bragging about too. That can balance it out.
Two sides to every life: the good and the bad.

Big job ahead of you. I've moved with school age children, so I feel your pain. It's hard not to have all that stuff when your kids are young. And they just might think that they need everything to move with them to a small apartment in NYC! Best to do it yourself. Not sure what your items for sale will fetch. I donated most things because it was so much easier. And I threw a ton out. Get plastic bins to pack everything up, and take less than you think you need. The kids are going to have such a wonderful time exploring the city, they aren't going to need so much stuff.
My husband traveled quite a bit when my kids were young. Phone calls are a great way for the kids to connect – phone calls are more personal than texts and emails. Do you have the Viber app on your phone? It makes international calls free.
February 7th, 2014
8:24 am
Yeah I would make the kids clean that playroom. You are lucky, they are big enough to help on the weekends. They can throw out broken things and donate things they don't want anymore. I truly understand how you feel about being alone and preparing to move. 2 years ago we lived in Houston, My husband got transferred to Atlanta. I was stuck trying to work, take care of the kid,and get the house staged for showing. THEN you have to keep it show ready <—–THAT is the kicker…having kids and trying to keep a house staged sucks. That lasted 6 months. Then after being in Atlanta for only a year and a half, he found a job in South Florida. So once again me stuck getting the house ready and keeping it ready. Luckily the house in ATL sold in 10 days so I only had to do the staging part for about 2 months (kept showing in case the sale fell through). Moving is never fun. Preparing for it by yourself with kids is even worse.

White Trash!
February 7th, 2014
9:46 am
Have the kids clean the playroom. Ours has gotten to disaster status before and I make them clean it with me there too. Everyone gets a big trash bag…and a plastic bin. If something is in the room that belongs elsewhere in the house it goes in the bin. Trash to the trash bag. Start in one corner of the room and work your way around….put on some good music to keep energy up! When the plastic bin is full the person has 10 min to relocate the items or they go in the trash. Works well actually.
The kids' father was in Iraq and Afghanistan during the war fighting. So concern for a parent's safety has been in our home also. Sit with Rose, let her talk about her concerns for her Dad. Then reminded her that we cannot live our lives in fear. We have to live in the day and trust in God.
February 7th, 2014
9:58 am
I have spent the better part of my life packing and moving. Frequent moves as an Air Force brat prepared me for the moves that first my career, and then my husband's career required. Not once did I have a room in my house that looked like that play room. Never. Not when I was a child nor when I had my own places as an adult.
And we are now settled in one place and I travel for work so I am on the road a lot–and quite a bit of that out of the country. We talk on the phone, email, text, etc. to keep up. (And we changed to a mobile provider that does not charge for data roaming and lets me call to spouse's mobile free from most countries I visit.)
We always keep in mind that we might have to move so we declutter on a regular basis. I was reared that way and that has stood me well throughout my life.
February 7th, 2014
10:15 am
You allowed this substandard living situation to happen, shut up and correct it. We simply don't care.
February 7th, 2014
10:45 am
Man people are so mean. I have seen way messier houses TWG and I highly doubt everyone on this blog is a neat freak.
I think you need to get rid of a ton of stuff though rather than keep and move it. You'll feel much freer when you don't have to keep up with so much stuff. Definitely get the kids involved.
February 7th, 2014
11:15 am
When the redhead traveled we kept in touch via text and email. He tried to speak to them every night. Some nights it did not happen but most nights it did. He did no international travel though so the only time differences were between coasts.
Organizing, staging a house and moving with kids is definitely a challenge. We had a very generous friend who allowed us to store our boxed 'stuff" in her basement so closets, cabinets, etc looked open and spacious. It was hard going through 14+ of junk. A newly opened Goodwill store got plenty of inventory from us. I reminded the girls to detach from the house since we knew we were definitely leaving. It was no longer OUR house, but a hotel-house. We were getting it ready for someone else to enjoy. We brought entirely too much stuff with us to the tundra. The goal from now through spring is to set aside items that are going to donation. I'll call a donation truck when the weather warms and get it all out of here.
February 7th, 2014
11:36 am
Wow! Tackle that playroom first and do NOT stray away from it and start on another project until that one is done! I agree that you kiddos should help in the task. Turn some music on ang get working! They need to learn to take care of their things and continue that theme on a daily basis. It may seem like you are being a neat freak and strict mom, but these personal and household tasks can be carried into adulthood. It is never too young to start those simple life skills. Needs vs Wants.
If you are moving from a house into an apartment then you and the rest of the family have lots of work to do cleaning, purging and donating! Do not take pack crap that you don't need or love. Living the simple life in the big city is a great experience for you ALL. Don't let STUFF get in the way of that.
Happy Cleaning!

Theresa, do like has already been said, make the kids help..Give them a box (all same size), tell them what goes in that, they can keep. The rest goes to trash or donated..
I have no clue what a Dreamcast is and the Star Wars thing would of been trashed a long time ago at my house..If they don't use it on a regular basis, get rid of it..A lot of that stuff, if you trash it, they are never going to miss it..
As for talking to the husband, mine doesn't travel, so I have nothing to say about that..Guess, I would be a little concerned if he was in Sochi, just because of the crap we see on TV about how yucky it is over there..
Those that are giving Theresa h*ll over the mess, if it's not your mess, get over it..Not everyone is perfect and Theresa has never claimed to be..She lays her (mostly) entire life on this blog for opinions and all you can do is call her "White Trash" and tell her how crappy she is, hope that y'all have a nice day and that tomorrow, someone doesn't piss in your Cheerios.. :)

Wow – your house looks disgusting and messy. How is it that you are pretty much s SAHM, yet you have that much of a mess. You have about 10 times more crap than is needed for your kids. Why aren't you having them clean their own mess?
February 7th, 2014
12:36 pm
I have a good friend who is a realtor. Having you as a client would be a nightmare. There are a lot of parents (mostly moms) who really resent having to move so they do everything they can to postpone the inevitable, including having a trash pile as a house. More than half the people here are saying that you need to get your kids involved. How spoiled are they? Also, since your husband is the bread winner, I don't think it is too much to ask to come home to a clean place. I travelled all over the world with my job and if my house looked like this when I came home, I would be livid. You have outdone yourself this time.
February 7th, 2014
12:39 pm
sorry – last thought: I also don't think you need to be checking up on him. I would check in every 2-3 days, or email each day, but I would not want my spouse to check in with me like you have. You are now an executive wife – act like one, look like one, and for god's sake, hire a damn housekeeper.
February 7th, 2014
12:54 pm
Agree with @missnadine about not checking up on your husband. He's got a busy few weeks ahead of him; let him communicate with you and the kids when he can, not when he's guilt-tripped into it. I travel a few times a year to trade shows, as does my husband, and the one staying at home almost never calls the one on the road because we understand the one who's away is very busy and may not have home on the mind all the time. That's why during the day we might shoot an email or text or two to keep up, and save the live calls for after hours.
February 7th, 2014
1:16 pm
@A I agree with you as well :). The time difference makes it much worse as well. She just needs to know that the hubby will call when he can. Based on her other posts over the years, I am sure she is making the hubby feel like *&^*& for not calling, yet, she has also said she supports his new role. Being an exec spouse is not always easy, but there is no way this added responsibility and $$ does not also involve a lot of time away from home. He chose it, you agreed, and you will need to stand by him as he will no doubt miss a ton of important family events. I missed my anniversary, son's birthday, husband's birthday, and even a funeral as I could not make it home from Asia in time. I regret some of it now, but it was the price I had to pay to be an exec. I can say my spouse just dealt with it, like you should.
February 7th, 2014
1:48 pm
TWG….Hiring someone to clean the house (once you have it in order) for the realty people is a good idea. Fact is, you are leaving the house so your heart is probably no longer in it. That can make you put off cleaning. Let someone else deal with it and you concentrate on the kids and getting you moved to New Jersey.
February 7th, 2014

Spousal travel: my husband rarely calls me. He knows I am busy. I check in once a day via email or text. I am usually gone less than a week. I have never been out the country on business.
I rarely call him at work either. A few times a week, if I have something he needs to know. His phone rings right into his office. If he is busy, he does not answer. If he has others in the office with him, he answers with speakerphone….haha! He does usually call me on the way home from work to let me know what time to expect him.
TWG…please do not let the mean people get you down. YES you have a messy playroom. It is not the end of the world. You and the kids can fix it.I grew up with a mother who really would have beat us if our playroom looked that way. She was compulsive about everything being neat and clean. We did not have an enjoyable childhood.

You've got the trifecta of BAD going on this week–no husband, sick kid, plus sorting out and packing-up to move. My heart goes out to you. Who on this blog would want to be in your shoes right now? I'm guessing that you are "picking your battles" and letting the playroom go a little. Big deal. As far as the game system goes, if it something that your family really enjoyed at one time, keep it. This past Christmas, my college-aged son asked for a Nintendo 64 and some specific games that he remembered loving as a child (I can't believe he is no longer a child *sigh*). I hope that there is a wife and mother appreciation treat in your future.

In this day and age of technology, why not keep in touch while traveling? Maybe Michael WANTS to talk with his wife and kids? Plus, he's been travelling a lot AND they have a lot of stuff going on/ decisions to make. Theresa shouldn't feel like she has to do everything alone. Sometimes it's nice to have discuss things with your spouse.
Theresa, have you thought about having a yard sale (some big ticket things are better to list on Craigslist) or donating to a group who plans on having one? I personally can't stand the work it takes to do one so I'd rather donate to a group who is doing one (our Scout Troop does one every year).
February 7th, 2014

@ Techmom…yard sales drive me insane! Haha! I spend 8 hours getting everything ready and then we usually spend 8 hours on the day. We might make $200.00 on a good day. NOT WORTH IT.
I hate it when I have say a suitcase ( I paid $50.00 for at Marshalls) and I have it marked $8. A person asks me, " Will you take $1?" NO…I would rather throw all this stuff away that sit here and sell it today for $50.00 total.
I HAVE had luck on Craigslist but does TWG want random people coming over when she is home alone? Not me.
DONATE is the way to go!

Donations can be tax deducted too…so you still get some $$$ for it.

TWG – seriously, people are just downright rude. I think there are plenty of people who relate to being messy and unorganized. And I'd be jealous too- you and your husband are in the same career field and, though you chose to be the primary caregiver while he's the primary breadwinner, it doesn't mean that you can't feel a bit jealous that he's getting to jaunt around the world and experience some of the coolest events of our lifetime whilst your busy dealing with sick kiddos and cleaning out a house. I'm sure he appreciates you and I'm sure your kids do too but that certainly doesn't make cleaning out the house any more exciting. I hope you have a hugely productive weekend and that you get to slow down and enjoy the Olympics some too (personally, I'd bring over a bottle of wine and come help you clean out your stuff if I lived nearby… it just goes so much quicker when someone else is there to talk to. Plus I always find I'm more willing to part with things when someone else sees what I might be willing to pack up and move!)
I think you need to find a way to attract some more positive people; I'm getting sick of the negative comments and they're not even directed at me!

I didn't realize so many perfect people existed on this blog. Wow! I hope I can learn from each of you how to make my playroom perfect at the expense of a personality.
TWG: I like the idea of giving each kid a box to put their faves in. It would also be a good time to work through school papers and such. What might help as well is if you watch a couple of episodes of that organizing show on HGTV or whatever it is where they help people in NYC with their stuff. Better to get rid of it now, then spend the $$$ to transport it, or hire someone in NYC ($$$) to haul it away, when it doesn't fit.

We donated our big collection of train stuff to a local kids' shelter. There was way too much stuff to try to "Goodwill" it away, so you might think about that stuff. If you are trying to sell something, think about what it would mean. Standing out at a yard sale to sell a Star Wars At-At for $10? Is that worth your time? Certainly, the items add up, but still… just consider that you can get rid of stuff on your own time.

You are actually admitting that you resent his success and that you probably wish for some of your old glory. If that was your choice then you should OWN it. "I am a little jealous that he is doing something so exciting and challenging and I am cleaning a house and taking care of sick kids." "We graduated with the same degree. I actually had a higher GPA. He is running a global network of reporters and I am cleaning a house"
There is no way your husband doesn't come home to a bitter wife. You say you had a better GPA, so perhaps you think you are smarter – and perhaps you are. Why weren't the roles reversed? Why didn't you go travel the world while hubby became a SAHD? There are several SAHDs out there, and they are great in that role. I know several and they don't resent the success they gave you. Why do you? I just don't understand why you would choose that path, and then complain about it. It would seem to me that your life isn't that bad. You don't have to work, your husband makes enough to really provide, you could get house help, your kids are healthy.. see what I mean?

I had to do that exact same thing with life-size handmade pictures that my kid made. I had him hold it up to take a picture (four years after, so it looks like a mini-kid). I can't throw away hardly any of their schoolwork. Articles say "save the best ones." What does that even mean? The ones that are the most indicative of them at the time; the most understandable; the most abstract that shows creativity? I've got no idea!
Definitely sell those big ticket items! We gave our backyard playhouse to my sister-in-law because her youngest has some years to go before he outgrows it. Be sure when you post the ad for the playhouse – if it's an "in-ground" one that the buyer is responsible for breaking it down and hauling it away. Also, suggest the person takes pictures as it's taken down; putting it back together will be much easier! Take it from someone who's been there. If it's Little Tykes or something, not a big deal.

Geez, missnadine, back off. So in a stressful week with sick kids, T is admitting that sometimes she thinks of the road not taken and is a bit jealous that she doesn't get to do something awesome like go to the Olympics. Michael may feel a jealous of her time with the kids occasionally — maybe when he's covering what turns out to be lousy match-up of a sport he doesn't particularly love in a dull city. We all have those moments, but that doesn't mean we are generally bitter and resentful. We're human. Why don't you join us and show a little humanity yourself instead of beating up on Theresa while she's down?
February 7th, 2014

She's got a tough job ahead of her, sick kids and a husband who is doing important work — elsewhere. When I was reading her blog (a personal blog, mind you, for all those who complain that she simply cuts and paste), I knew there were going to be some asshats on here who were going to rip her apart because her playroom doesn't look like House Beautiful. Sure enough — you anonymous jerks who like to throw their superiority around at Theresa's expense came through with flying colors. Shame on you!
When someone shares their life with you, that does NOT give you the right to be nasty, condescending, rude, judgemental and bitchy. Here's a suggestion: Don't say something in a blog you wouldn't be willing to say to a perfect strangers face, upon being graciously invited into their home. I truly can't believe that some of you would say the hateful things you are saying on this blog to this woman's face. Cowards.
T, check and see if you have an eBay store near you — one that can take the more interesting things you have to sell (like the Dreamcaster, etc.) and put them on eBay for you. Yeah, they take a slice, but they are out of YOUR hair, on the market and you don't have to deal with the constant checking on auctions, etc.
What helped me with the kids when they were smaller and would be overwhelmed by projects such as cleaning a room, etc., would be giving them a list of five things to do. Just 5: "Sort puzzles. Put doll clothes away. Put Legos back in box. Take out trash. Make bed." I even had my list of 5 things. So while they were doing there 5, I was also doing my 5. If one got stuck, I'd help them figure out how to solve it, but I tried very hard not to do it for them. They are not too young to pack their own bedrooms at this point — give 'em a few boxes and invite them to start packing — label them well and then move those boxes to an off-site storage area. In fact, that would be a great way to pack the playroom — 3 boxes — donate, trash and To New York. By the time you finish, you'll only have a few selected toys and games neatly placed on shelves. :-)
I feel for ya — I did the single-mom-selling-a-house-with-a-1-year-old bit when we moved to Atlanta — husband started his job up here one September, and I was in South Florida. Luckily, we sold the house quickly and I was in Atlanta by December — but those three months were the longest months of my life!

Thanks HB and DB – I really do appreciate the support. I am hoping that I have so much moved out of the house that keeping it neat for showing won't be so hard. Also hoping it sells quickly so then it's off the market and we don't have to worry about more showings — although someone advised earlier to keep showing in case contract falls through — I guess it depends on how strong the offer is.
I just set up appt. for super deep clean of the house and for carpet person so hopefully those dates will pin me in and make me work faster. It is easy to meander with the amt that needs to be done. Also you're dealing with every day mess. My hope is to get so much out that what's left you could clean in a quick pick up.
February 7th, 2014
11:25 pm
HB and DB – are you the same person? If she puts this stuff here, she should expect that people will react. I am not totally anonymous – she can easily see who I am, and yes, I would say the same thing if I knew her. But see, you guys just feed in to it and just tell her what she wants to hear, but I don't that is the best advice.
TWG – you may not realize it, but you are now in a different league. You husband manages people all over the world, at a 6-figure income. Do you really think it is ok for you to keep saying your personal business on this blog. or posting pictures of your messy house? Years ago, someone at my old company got promoted to a C-level position, at a $250K annual income, managing 1000+ staff globally. One day his wife came in to the office to meet him for lunch. She was dressed in a old/ratty sweat suit, not a cute Lululemon yoga pant suit, but a $5 Walmart set – even the fancy sweat suit would not be appropriate to meet your husband at his work, but at least it would look more pulled together. The staff's jaws fell to the ground when she walked in so disheveled and unprofessional. Believe it or not, your actions DO reflect on your spouse, and how people view him, especially since he is in the public eye. Do you not think that maybe he got this job over other people, who now report to him? These articles become fodder for gossip, whether it is the messy house of the fact that the wife seemingly can't hold it together.
Maybe you should exercise some discretion. I do feel that you regret some of your decisions, but you have said that this was Michael's dream job, and that he aimed for this his whole life. I think it is unfair for you to be mad at him now, especially in this public forum. I think you only want to hear from people who agree with you. My husband and I took turns in our career. That meant that neither of us would reach the C-level, but we took turned being the SAH depending on who got the better offer. I actually moved to Australia for 9 months when .my kids were young, while my husband was a SAHD, and we always treated each other's career as equally important. Because of that, we never resented each other's success, and I never felt like an appendage to my spouse. That's a good feeling.
I do have strong opinions, and one of my strongest is that I don't think it is wise for women to give up ALL of their career aspirations. It leads to a bitterness that becomes very uncomfortable. I have seen it with friends and it is hard to work through. You are going through that now, and this has been simmering since he accepted the position. You may not like me, but at least I am not just telling you what you want to here. Enjoy the benefits of your new status – get a housekeeper, maybe a part-time childcare worker, and go do stuff for yourself. You will feel a lot better.

I feel so sorry that people are so rude and mean! I wish I could come visit for a few days and do the organizing, selling, giving away, and cleaning for you!! I hope that you will be able to rest on Sunday and that the kids that are sick will feel better soon and no one else gets sick.

TWG – I am unorganized and get stressed out very easily. Moving from ATL to FW was traumatic for many reasons, packing being a big one. I am closing on a home next week and packing from my apartment to the house is already making me anxious. Good luck to you.
Also, it is okay to say "what if" and "if only" sometimes. Even when we love the lives we live, they are very rarely exactly as we planned and maybe not even hoped. I know that is the case for me. I just had that conversation tonight. I cannot decide if my life is better now than it would have been had it all worked according to my "plan" but I do sometimes wish for that "other" life. But whatever, I wake up every day in THIS life and I'm thankful for it. I'm willing to bet that Theresa is also thankful for the life she has chosen even if there are days she wishes things were different. (Theresa, I have some very 'colorful' responses that you can give to rude people but I'm sure you're a little more ladylike than that. :-) )
February 8th, 2014

You're welcome, Theresa. Take good care of yourself. And yes, missnadine, you absolutely have a right to react however nastily you want. I, in turn, have a right to react to your obnoxious, know-it-all, condescending posts with my own opinions.
February 8th, 2014

Cue the violins ladies… and keep up the pity party. Is she were grateful, she wouldn't b***h about her life all the time. You may not like how I stated my opinion, but you should at least be smart enough to see that I have made some valid points. You think I'm mean? What until her husband's co-workers, staff, and management read through her most intimate details.
February 8th, 2014

@ Theresa.. I say Ignore the mean people. Some people have no joy unless they are making others as miserable as they are. I mean it IS your blog and you can blog about what you want. It's like someone buying a Star magazine at the store then writing them and telling them that they should write about something else. Don't like it…Don't buy it. Don't like the blog, don't read it's simple. Truth is they must actually like the blog because they keep coming back. They make nasty comments because they are jealous that you are in a situation that affords you the time to be able to do this.
I totally get what you are saying about sometimes getting a little jealous. My husband is the primary breadwinner, and he gets to go all kinds of places. I too am often left to keep house. Yes, we chose for me to be here because we felt two corporate careers wasn't fair to the kid. He works long hours and is usually gone from 6am til about 7pm at night because he commutes. I didn't want to be like that too. I couldn't do it to our child..so I get it. That doesn't mean that sometimes when he is out of the country or in some cool place I don't feel a bit sad. It doesn't mean you aren't proud of him or are a witch to him like SOME people think.
February 8th, 2014
9:27 am
Oh and some people troll blogs like this and say nasty stuff because it makes them feel important when they get a lot of attention. You see it in comment sections all over the internet. It's obvious what they are doing and they push and push til they get what they want. They probably go and show their friends and family how they hijacked the comments section or see how many times they got to post. Just seeing their name that many times gives them a thrill. It's pretty sad. These same people would be terrified to start their own blogs because they actually don't have anything interesting to say.
February 8th, 2014

Michael isn't exactly sitting in the stands at all the best Winter Olympic events and such. He's managing people, which is much different than the people doing the actual reporting. Not exactly a glamorous location either – from what the news reports have said. At least Theresa has clean water, doorknobs and light bulbs. :-)
If Theresa came to the office Christmas party with a load of pictures of her messy house, then we might have a conversation about this. She is blogging about what she is doing. Those stating that "if she came to MY office" and such must be too concerned about others' opinions. If that's not true, re-read what you posted. To simplify, Theresa puts herself (and house) out there for everyone to see and doesn't respond to each comment with a whine. Others, ahem, seem to think that people outside the house and in the workplace have opinions that are much more important because they are employed by some organization that doles out a paycheck and health benefits. So, who cares more? Theresa: who doesn't respond or Posters Here: who care what they and their co-workers would say?

Boston busing crisis
The Boston busing crisis (1974–1988) was a series of protests and riots that occurred in Boston, Massachusetts in response to the passing of the 1965 Racial Imbalance Act, which ordered public schools in the state to desegregate. W. Arthur Garrity Jr. of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts laid out a plan for compulsory busing of students from predominantly white areas of the city to schools with predominantly black student populations. The legislation provoked outrage from white Bostonians and led to widespread protests and violent public disturbances. The conflict lasted for over a decade and contributed to a demographic shift in Boston public schools, with dramatically fewer students enrolling in public schools and more white families sending their children to private schools instead.
The Racial Imbalance Act[edit]
In 1965, Massachusetts had passed into law the Racial Imbalance Act, which ordered school districts to desegregate or risk losing state educational funding. The first law of its kind in the nation, it was opposed by many in Boston, especially less-well-off white ethnic areas, such as the Irish-American district of South Boston.[1]
Development and implementation of busing[edit]
In the Boston metropolitan area, Judge W. Arthur Garrity Jr. of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts found a recurring pattern of racial discrimination in the operation of the Boston public schools in a 1974 ruling. His ruling found the schools were unconstitutionally segregated.
As a remedy, he used a busing plan developed by the Massachusetts State Board of Education to implement the state's Racial Imbalance Law that had been passed by the Massachusetts state legislature a few years earlier, requiring any school with a student enrollment that was more than 50% nonwhite to be balanced according to race. The Boston School Committee consistently disobeyed orders from the state Board of Education. Judge Garrity's ruling, upheld on appeal by the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit and by the Supreme Court led by Warren Burger, required school children to be brought to different schools to end segregation. The final Judge Garrity-issued decision in the case came in 1988.[2]
The conflict in Boston over busing primarily affected the traditionally Irish-American neighborhoods of West Roxbury, Roslindale, Hyde Park, Charlestown, South Boston and Dorchester and the traditionally Italian-American neighborhood of the North End.[3] It also affected the community of Roxbury, a formerly Jewish section of Boston that by the early 1970s had become predominantly black. To a lesser extent, schools many miles away in Springfield, Massachusetts were affected by Judge Garrity's order, but the plan caused little overt controversy there as the minority population was relatively small.
In one part of the plan, Judge Garrity decided that the entire junior class from the mostly poor white South Boston High School would be bused to Roxbury High School, a black high school.[2] Half the sophomores from each school would attend the other, and seniors could decide what school to attend.[2] David Frum asserts that South Boston and Roxbury were "generally regarded as the two worst schools in Boston, and it was never clear what educational purpose was to be served by jumbling them."[2] For three years after the plan commenced, Massachusetts state troopers were stationed at South Boston High.[2] The first day of the plan, only 100 of 1,300 students came to school at South Boston.[2] Only 13 of the 550 South Boston juniors ordered to attend Roxbury showed up.[2] Parents showed up every day to protest, and football season was cancelled.[2] Whites and blacks began entering through different doors.[2] An anti-busing mass movement developed, called Restore Our Alienated Rights.
The integration plan aroused fierce criticism among some Boston residents. Of the 100,000 enrolled in Boston school districts, attendance fell to 40,000 from 60,000 during these years.[2] Opponents personally attacked Judge Garrity, claiming that because he lived in a white suburb, his own children were not affected by his ruling. The author of the busing plan, Robert Dentler, lived in the suburb of Lexington, which was unaffected by the ruling.[2] Judge Garrity's hometown of Wellesley welcomed a small number of black students under the METCO program that sought to assist in desegregating the Boston schools by offering places in suburban school districts to black students.[citation needed] However, most METCO students were from middle-class black families, and METCO was not available to poor white students from Boston.[citation needed] Another important difference in the suburbs was that white students there were not bused away from their neighborhoods, and towns were not under court order to enroll in the state-run program but did so voluntarily.[citation needed]
Protests and violence[edit]
There were a number of protest incidents that turned severely violent, even resulting in deaths. In one case, Theodore Landsmark, a Yale-educated attorney, was attacked and bloodied by a group of white teenagers as he exited Boston City Hall.[4] One of the youths, Joseph Rakes, attacked Landsmark with an American flag.[5] According to Landsmark, Rakes was swinging the flag and trying to hit him, not trying to spear him as it appears in the photo, and he narrowly missed. [6] A photograph of the attack on Landsmark, The Soiling of Old Glory taken by Stanley Forman for the Boston Herald American, won the Pulitzer Prize for Spot News Photography (now the Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Photography) in 1977.[7][8] In a retaliatory incident the next day, black teenagers in Roxbury threw rocks at a white man's car and caused him to crash.[2] The youths dragged him out and crushed his skull with nearby paving stones. When police arrived, the man was surrounded by a crowd of 100 chanting "Let him die" while lying in a coma from which he never recovered.[2]
In another instance, a white teenager was stabbed nearly to death by a black teenager at South Boston High School. The community's white residents mobbed the school, trapping the black students inside.[9] There were dozens of other racial incidents at South Boston High that year.[2] The school was forced to close for a month after the stabbing.[2] When it opened again, it was one of the first high schools to install metal detectors; with 400 students attending, it was guarded by 500 police officers every day.[2] In December 1975, Judge Garrity turned out the principal of South Boston High and took control himself.[2]
Judge Garrity increased the plan down to first grade for the following school year.[2] In October 1975, 6,000 marched against the busing in South Boston.[2]
Impact on Boston Public Schools[edit]
|This article has been nominated to be checked for its neutrality. (August 2013)
By the time the experiment with busing ended in 1988, the Boston school district had shrunk from 100,000 students to 57,000, only 15% of whom were white.[10] In 2008 Boston Public Schools were 76% black and Hispanic, and 14% White.[11] According to the 2000 census, Boston's white (non-Hispanic) population is 54.48%, whereas Boston's black and Hispanic populations together total 39.77%. Newcomer professional families in the city have comparatively fewer children, and some of those parents, both white and black, prefer to send their children to private and parochial schools rather than have their children attend public school.[citation needed] In South Boston, a neighborhood found by U.S. News and World Report (October 1994) to have had the highest concentration of white poverty in the country, dropout rates soared, its poorer census tracts' dropout rates superseding rates based on race and ethnicity citywide. South Boston, along with other poor and working class white census tracts of Charlestown and parts of Dorchester, saw an increase in control by organized crime and young deaths due to murder, overdose, and criminal involvement.[9] Boston's South Boston High School (now the South Boston High complex) was declared "dysfunctional" by the State Board of Education.[12]

Caboodle Ranch: Cute sanctuary is more like a nightmare »
I wrote about the Caboodle Ranch before because it looked like a wonderful place. Thanks to Peta, I now know differently; Caboodle Ranch is really another sad hoarding situation. You can see in the video below that many cats were found in just shocking condition. Don't watch the video if you are scared, it's pretty sad.
[Can't see the video? Watch it on Vegansaurus.com]
The cats are being seized and Caboodle's owner is facing criminal charges for animal cruelty.
From Peta:
PETA's video shows that [founder and operator Craig] Grant denied cats effective veterinary care for rampant upper-respiratory infections, sometimes with fatal consequences. PETA's investigator routinely brought to Grant's attention the suffering of individual cats at the facility, but requests and offers to rush even dying cats for emergency medical attention were often dismissed. Grant left Lilly, whose iris protruded through a ruptured cornea, to deteriorate for four months. She lost vision in the eye and became critically ill. Lilly died, without veterinary care, on January 31.
PETA's investigation found that Grant allowed cats who were sick with fatal, contagious illnesses to roam freely and come into contact with cats not known to be ill; that cats were easily able to escape the facility's perimeter fence; that Grant roughly rubbed cats' faces with Clorox wipes to "clean" them; that Grant intentionally hid cats who were in obvious need of medical care that he was not providing; that cats had gnats and other insects swarming around them and were forced to endure disgusting living areas covered with vomit, trash, and waste and infested with roaches and maggots; and that Grant allowed cats to breed. In addition, cats' remains were left to rot on the facility's grounds—PETA's investigator found bones in the woods on Grant's property.
What a sad state of affairs. I guess the owner should have spent less time building mini churches and more time actually caring for the cats.

I didn't believe it, when I read about it at at Tnooz, but this morning I noticed Hotel Haiku, referred to in my post Would you consider staying in a notel in stead of a hotel? really closes outside office hours.

I didn't believe it, when I read about it at at Tnooz, but this morning I noticed Hotel Haiku, referred to in my post Would you consider staying in a notel in stead of a hotel? really closes outside office hours.
What doyouthink?
You might consider a notel after visiting a new site on the block: Hotel Haiku, curated by Garri Rayne.
Hotel Haiku has taken up the idea of describing Hotels and, more importantly notels in a real Zen way, with a Haiku:
haiku [ˈhaɪkuː] n. A Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.
I'm particularly attracted to the term notel, because when I started out as a hotelier and was developing our own unique 3 suites only "hotel" Haagsche Suites, I had for some time the idea of naming it Not a Hotel. Eventually I decided to name it "Haagsche Suites" (i.e. suites of The Hague), because Not A Hotel sounded a bit negative. Never thought of notel.
I congratulate Hotel Haiku with the invention of this term notel. As they describe it:
notel [nəʊˈtɛl] n. An exceptional, often architecturally designed, holiday and vacation rental property that draws inspiration from the design hotel phenomenon.
So notel is beyond Hotel, beyond Hip Hotel, beyond Boutique Hotel, beyond Design Hotel or beyond what hotel have you and at the same time it is below the usual hotel radar. Thank you Hotel Haiku!
First Hotel Haiku (@hotelhaiku) found me via Twitter and I noticed it without paying much attention. Then I found out more about the site via our friends over at Tnooz. I refer to their review of the Hotel Haiku site.
I'm set to explore the phenomenon further and created even a notel category, because I've featured some notels here on the blog already.
As Garri pointed out in his comment the undercast n is essential for the idea behind the term notel , so I have edited all, but couldn't withstand to add little bit of my own: red :-)

Full Moon and a view on St Jean Cap Ferrat
An excellent place for Super Yacht spotting, here the 90m Lauren L, built in 2002 in Germany
Last year we took a few days off from our hectic life as hoteliers to visit the south of France.
I was able to make a last minute reservation for one night in a suite of the magnificent Chateau Eza.
However, there are a couple of things to note:
All in all it was quite an, but not so quiet, experience which I won't repeat.
After a wonderful, but bit hazy, breakfast on the terrace we left for the Burgundy region.
After I imported the posts of Happy Hotelier from the old server to the new server, this interview with Robert Pirsig came up as my first draft in my drafts ghetto.
Whenever I see or hear the term Zen I associate it with the book Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintenance.
Currently I'm awaiting the DNS switch from old server to new server as the two have been in the air next to each other. In the meantime I have replaced a keyboard because the w key kept hanging because of ash with coffee in it.
Well I was pondering the new set up for my categories as they seem to be misfits anyway.
Three notes to self evolve:
The Seventies bestseller Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was the biggest-selling philosophy book ever. But for the reclusive author life was bitter-sweet. Here, he talks frankly about anxiety, depression, the death of his son and the road trip that inspired a classic.
Born 6 September 1928, Minneapolis.
Family Father was a law lecturer and mother was Swedish-born. Pirsig married Nancy Ann James in 1954. They had two sons: Chris, and Ted, now 48. Now married to journalist Wendy Kimball, with whom he has a 25-year-old daughter, Nell.
Education Judged to have an IQ of 170 at age nine. Went to University of Minneapolis at 15, but joined the army in 1946, serving in Korea before returning to the university to study philosophy. Then studied at Benares in India.

Actually I'm proud of my Zen series of posts. It describes from time to time how much effort it takes me to find a nice last minute hotel room. I consider myself reasonably knowledgeable about hotels and enough of a geek to find a cool hotel room via internet. But each time I am asked to find somebody a cool hotel, I find it becoming more difficult to find something special at a reasonable price via internet. It demonstrates to me time after time that the internet is not such a nice tool as everyone, including travel marketeers wants us to believe. To me these exercises demonstrate time after time again the Hospitality- and Destination marketing industry still has waaaay to go before they "get it".
This time my unfortunate dance partner "Dancegirl" asked me to find her a nice hotel in or around Maastricht for tomorrow. As Asuncion Day is a Dutch Bank Holiday and the weather is nice, this is even more difficult, as there will be not many vacancies in and around Maastricht tomorrow.
So, actually the "Zen" tag is sometimes more of an euphemism for a good old rant….
This time my first search was on Hotelicopter. Please note it is spelled with one 'l' in the middle – just wondering why they didn't scoop up the hotellicopter domain.
Recently I ranted really about them.
They rate the Maastricht Kruisherenhotel as the best of their Maastricht portfolio. That goes without saying, because I know, as my own review of the Kruisherenhotel on their site is a raving one. Only Dancegirl won't be able or willing to pay their rate.
My rant about Hotelicopter is still valid: Despite Adam Healey promising me that "their own" – I mean their community's, more precisely "our" reviews – which they hid when they relabeled themselves from VibeAgent into Hotelicopter, will be back soon, you still cannot check those reviews on their site. How long do we have to wait, Adam?
On a positive note: Their search machine doesn't confine itself to an area within country boundaries. Especially important in the case of Maastricht as it is located near our borders with Germany and Belgium.
On a negative note: they didn't catch the euro 150 no refund St Gerlach offer described here below.
I looked at Tripadvisor with and without availability search and it didn't come up with something interesting quickly enough.
I looked at Booking.com, but got lost in the preferred position of various big chain hotels.
Then I looked at my favorite Dutch Hoteliers site. Already my favorite because I use them as a white label online booking engine for my Haagsche Suites (and consequently am always featured on their home page as the second best guest rated hotel of their portfolio in The Netherlands), but also because the site is easy to use. Their model is a fee based one. Nothing commissions from the hotels. They came up with a non refundable offer from St Gerlach, owned by the same owner as the kruisherenhotel and they happen to be a member of the same small chain of Historic Hotels of the Benelux we're a member of.
In the meantime, via Twitter, I got two suggestions from twitter followers:
One very funny one from Patrick Geoff twittering as @HotelDesigns who suggested Haagsche Suites and referred to his own kind review. He wasn't aware that my search was was for Dancegirl She actually does know Haagsche Suites by heart, as she replaces us in minding the guests occasionally. Some guests even prefer her minding them over this old goat:-).
The second suggestion came from Hotel Calculator. They did come up with the same St Gerlach offer, but now via Agoda. Hotel Calculator quoted Euro 154, but when you landed on Agoda, the price reduced by a sort of refund policy of Agoda… When I asked Hotel calculator about the difference, he answered that it probably is due to exchange rate imparities in the scraping process.
Agoda being the same OTA that Hotelicopter came up with, this also shows that not all meta search engines are equal. In an earlier post I commented that there was apparently a lag between Hotelicopter's availability and Agoda's availability. Hotel calculater claims their engine scrapes real time….
As Dancegirl liked this offer and booked it, this ends as a bit less time consuming and more zen alike post:-)
I'll keep your posted about Dancegirl's verdict of the St Gerlach.

NORFOLK (AP) -- The 24th annual Clean the Bay Day is scheduled for June 2 and the hunt is on for volunteers.
The cleanup sponsored by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation typically involves thousands of Virginia residents who work on foot and by boat to remove trash from hundreds of miles of streams, shorelines and beaches. Last year, more than 6,500 volunteers removed 200,000 pounds of trash.
Cleanup sites are available throughout Hampton Roads, Virginia's Eastern Shore and within the estuary's far reaches in north and central Virginia.
This year's cleanup is scheduled from 9 a.m. to noon. Volunteers must register in advance.

More reviews by THEPookiemeister
Got this as a sample size in a clinique gift thing...well i didn't expect too much since i have very oily but dry eyelids, bad dark circles...but used it @ night anyway...well I have to say this is the only thing that has ever worked for my eyelid discoloration AND dark circles!!!! this stuff has something that my eyes like, and this stuff lasts so long in the sample size. All I know is once i run out i am definitely buying!
First the pluses: Very moisturizing but absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling. The problem is as other reviewers have noted not really anything special that you couldn't find in a drugstore brand for cheaper.
I tried the eye cream for a week, but found my eye area break out! I never break out from any other eye cream, EL, clarins, avon, garnier...After stopping using this product for a day, my zits around my eyes are gone immediately.
I have recently returned the advanced stop signs because it dried out my eyes and stung my eyes a lot (probably because of the spf), but I got the repairwair intensive eye cream to replace it and I am liking it so far. It really diminishes my dark undereye circles and reflects light so my eyes look bright. It is really creamy but absorbs well and doesn't dry out my skin. As for helping with fine lines, I haven't really noticed a significant change, but it does help a little and I like it!
I'm realistic when it comes to eye creams and do not expect any product to make a significant difference to lines and dark circles, particularly over a short period of time. Consequently, when I started using this cream a month ago after receiving it as a GWP, I didn't hold any grand expectations. My experience with it has been positive. The big plus is that it is intensely moisturising, without being greasy. It absorbs well when applied. It doesn't sting my eyes or otherwise irritate the skin. The skin around my eyes appears softer. Because it moisturises so well, it has proved to be a good base for concealer and foundation. I used Clinique's All About Eyes a few years ago (which I vaguely recall is more of a gel-like formulation) and Repairwear definitely seems to moisturise my delicate eye area far better. This is not a bad product at all.

I'm in my early 20's so I use eye cream as more of a preventative measure and also my under eyes tend to get dry and dulling looking with bags. This cream is okay, but I honestly don't see the difference between this and All About Eyes Rich (which is significantly cheaper! $50 cnd vs $37 cnd) This thoroughly moisturizes my under eyes and eye area, I wake up to brighter and more moisturized looking eyes. The bags from under my eyes are less noticeable. I don't really have major under eye circles but I do notice them to be a bit lighter when I wake up. I can use this during the day without a problem also. I won't repurchase because Clinique AAE rich does the same thing. EDIT: I stopped using this everynight, it is a little too rich and i began to get millia! I use this on a on and off basis now.
Doesn't do much except lightly moisturize. I was hoping for something richer and more moisturizing that would work as a night cream. However, this does work well as a daytime undereye moisturizer and I believe it would be suitable as a day eye cream for all but the oiliest skins. I sometimes use it during the day to help thin out my powder concealer. I not sure I'd repurchase, though, because it's nothing special.
The SA threw this sample in my bag ( Every SA always gives me eye cream..should tell you I need help there). I have pre-mature aging around my eye near my cheeks, no crows feet. I think it's from not wearing sunglasses when I was younger. I've tried lots of eye creams. For puffiness, I use Yon-Ka Phyto contour. Nothing else will do to get rid of my morning bags. So I threw on the Repairwear at night to see if my lines would miraculously get better. Nothing has ever helped, so I was pessimistic. Well, was I surprised. My lines were still there, but greatly softened and lessened! It also was a great hydrator. I have very dry skin under my eyes. I've used it for 4 nights straight and same results. So even though it's not a miracle cream, it does work for me. So this at night, Yon-Ka in the morning!
I stopped using this for awhile because of skin barrier issues due to another product but I've slowly brought this back in my daily routine and really notice a difference in the lines under my eyes within a few uses. I think you have to use this everyday to get the full benefits. Itf you stop using, the wrinkles will come back. So consider this a temporary "fix" rather than something to make the wrinkle go away permantantly. I think the only thing that will do that is peels, dermabrasion and lasers. I think this cream is well worht the cost. It's a little pricier than some Clinique products but that little jar last awhile. I wish they would put it in a tube. that's my only gripe.
Update: After experimenting with other eye creams, I've come back to this one. It really does work very well in diminishing my lines. It's moisturizing, no dyes, no scents. I don't think it does much for dark circles, but my main concern is lines. So I'm now on my third jar. Until I find a miracle eye cream, this is my HG.
5 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
My eyes have dark circles and heavy baggage and too many smile wrinkles... and this product did nothing for them. I used it daily for a month and saw no difference, it worked like any other regular moisturizer *shrug*
My eyes react to eye creams pretty strongly. Essential oils, fragrances, etc. make them sting, and I'm allergic to shea butter (which is in most of the other Clinique eye cream's), plus I've yet to find an eye cream that didn't make my eyes really puffy the in the am. So for the six months or so, I've just being using a drop of avocado oil under my eyes which is working fairly well, but I keep looking for an eye cream, just in case there's something out there that works better. The thing I like about this eye cream compared to the other Clinique eye creams - is that is has the least amount of liquid plastic (silicones) in it. It does have a lot of ingredients, but 95% of them are antioxidants and amino acids. The sample I tried seemed very thick and difficult to spread -- I needed it to sit on my eyes for a few seconds to warm up before I could blend it in. Ultimately, I added some avocado oil to it, to help it be a little creamier, as well as help it be a little more emollient - because this is not emollient enough for me. Unfortunately, it did make my eyes pretty puffy the next day, so I'll be sticking with my avocado oil (health food store, food section).

I finally found her, the most oblivious dipshit alive
Stopped at Two Boots for a slice and there was a fat butch-looking woman standing in front of the register completely blocking it. She looked down as she texted furiously.
"Excuse me, Miss, have you ordered?"
Nothing. I repeated myself louder with the same result. The counterman spoke up and asked what I wanted, so I ordered, then made an elaborate show of reaching my arm over her shoulder inches from her face as I paid. No reaction, still texting.
Shaking my head, I wandered over and set my bags down on one of the numerous empty tables. Texty McDipshit gets her slice, walks over, and sits at the table my bags sat on top of. Fuck it, now It's on. I got my slice, walked over and plopped down heavily in the seat across from her.
Now she looked up from her phone.
I stared straight into her eyes. Not looking angry or annoyed, just total stone face as the two of us sat in an otherwise empty pizzeria. She glanced up a couple times, saw I was still staring at her, and quickly dropped her gaze again. Each time she snuck a peek I leaned a little closer towards her. I've never seen a person eat a slice that quickly in my life.

KENNEWICK, Wash. - Local food banks will help thousands of people this year and thanks to a struggling economy the face of hunger continues to change.
One Tri-Cities mother said she relies on the local food banks to feed her family of four while she struggles to get by.
The food that comes in to the Tri-Cities food banks won't stay there for long. More than 15,000 people will be helped this holiday season. Mary Swart is one of those people. She's divorced and has three children. She works as a janitor and depends on the food bank to keep her family healthy and not hungry.
"It's very hard to know it's out of your control sometimes when you don't have a very good job and you don't have a lot of money but it's nice to know that you have that for your kids every single day, food for yourself and not have to worry about that," Swart said.Swart gets food from the food bank once a month, when food stamps will only buy so much."I've had to use a food bank for a while and it's really sad, but it also makes me feel better because I know that if I have this experience when I'm doing better in my life that I can give back," Swart said.

Nike Zoom Revis Black/Volt
After the official unveiling of the Nike Zoom Revis model a few days ago, it looks like another colorway has popped up. This Zoom Revis model is in a black/volt color combination. The upper is constructed in a mixture of mesh and leather materials throughout. The predominately black upper is accented with super bright volt accents from the outsole, strap, and Swoosh.
The Nike Zoom Revis Black/Volt has a release date on December 10th, but if you can't wait 21 Mercer already has a few pairs in stock. The retail price is set at $130.

Not bad.
I'm liking the silhouette on these!
Sole Seriouz:
I will 2nd that. I LOVE the silhouette. To me, it's the perfect cut.
And this black, volt colorway is more my style that the green/white.
I have a feeling I'm going to like these more with each different color.
I'm waiting on a white based pair, but I will absolutely be getting these for training.
nice shoes. They kind of look like a LeBron shoe before they started overkilling the 360 air sole.
Super Sick!

TULSA, Okla. (AP) - Federal investigators say 1 of 2 Union Pacific
freight trains that collided in the Oklahoma Panhandle last summer and
killed three workers missed signals warning it to slow down or stop.
Investigators told the National Transportation
Safety Board at a Tuesday hearing in Washington about the June 24 wreck
that the eastbound train passed a siding at 68 mph just prior to
colliding head-on with a westbound train near Goodwell.
The collision sparked an inferno that nearly welded the locomotives together. One worker survived.
NTSB investigators say the eastbound train missed two signals to slow down and a final warning to stop.
The NTSB said Tuesday's hearing was for
fact-finding and not to assess blame. It heard testimony from officials
from Omaha, Neb.-based Union Pacific, government agencies and labor

Winner of "Best Spanish Language Foreign Film" at the 2005 Goya Awards.
WHISKY is an inspired and beautifully assured tragicomedy about Jacobo, a sixty-year-old owner of a small, outdated sock factory, is illuminated with deadpan, repetitive and monotonous detail. When his successful younger brother is expected for a visit, Jacobo asks Marta, his humble, loyal assistant, to pose as his wife. The brother, lively, inquisitive and open, spontaneously suggests a seaside trip during which the three characters begin to reveal themselves in situations where farce, jealousy and betrayal lead to places of no return. Juan Pablo Rebella and Pablo Stoll have created a sophisticated, quiet film that tells a story through understatement and modest gestures.
