Embellishing the cooking area, washroom, or living space is one thing, but when it comes to decorating a kid's space it can show to be much more tough. If a kid is tired of the way their space looks it is very simple to relocate the bed, wardrobe, and cabinets around to give it a fresh feel.
Bunk beds are two beds castoff onto another, occasionally three beds even. Prior to going bed buying, survey initially the expanse of your ceiling from your floorboards and make certain that you have enough legroom for a loft or a triple bunk bed. A triple bunk bed is an L-shaped bed, simply the thing for your two brood who like to welcome over their relative for a rest over.
Silk pillows and pillowcases help to nurture your skin and hair while resting and additionally try to keep away any allergy or irritabilities caused by bed bugs or dust mites, providing you a whole host of advantages to check out and enjoy. There are several varieties of silk pillows and pillowcases that can be discovered nowadays, however the premium among all are those that made up of mulberry silk. Obviously, it does not suggest that the pillows made from various other products are not up to the mark however, the quality and comfort that mulberry silk affords to the users is vital.
Ruffled bed skirts and captivating dust ruffles can include character and whimsy to your bedroom area. The comforters, pillows, sheets and ruffled bed skirts that you select for this room speak volumes about your sense of design as well as your individual choices.
Once looking at and comparing one bedroom readied to an additional, worldwide students have a variety of factors which you ought to look at. The initially and many obvious is as big as the bed that you require, as well as how big that can be in the room in mix making use of the various other components of the bedroom set. A conventional sleigh fashion bed in empress or king volume is considerably bigger than a operating system or harry potter fashion of bed, merely because of the design of the sleigh bed itself. Even though a traditional or platform king or empress might fit well in the room, the sleigh bed might be merely too big or frustrating. Another aspect to consider are the additional pieces which can be found in addition to a bed room set. There are a variety of varied options in those pieces as well, with amongst the vital things to consider becoming the volume and height of the furniture. A low report bed room set can be smaller sized overall, permitting a lot even more wall location to be noticeable. For smaller sized master bed rooms this can actually open up up the space and offer it a look of better size. A greater a lot even more conventional fashion of dresser, mirror and box of drawers might appear frustrating in the space and might in truth generate likewise a fairly big space appear crowded. Selecting the appropriate volume and peak of mirror for the dresser is a vital factor to consider, particularly in smaller sized suites where a tall, big mirror might be merely too big.
They are made of very thick solid viscoelastic memory foam and therefore provide the bearer of a company bed mattress and the convenience of an extremely soft bed mattress. Both the memory foam mattresses and mattress pads are designed to entirely break down under the weight of the body. They are very efficient in dispersing body weight evenly over the bed mattress or mattress pad.
That is why I recommend duvet covers for your bed set. Duvet cover sets are a great easy method to shield your comforter simply place your existing comforter inside it and button, snap, or zip close for a safe and secure fit. This method you will be able to include years of long life to your comforter and shield your bedroom set.
Bamboo sheets provide some special advantages, which has lots of individuals today choosing luxury bamboo bedding. Bamboo sheets are as soft as silk due to the fact that bamboo fibers are normally soft, smooth and round. Bamboo sheets are priced simply a little greater than Egyptian cotton sheets and are equipment washable.
Flexibility is one of the primary reasons people choose futons. Affordability is an additional reason many families choose futons. Supplied basements, living spaces, dens, sun-rooms, children's spaces and guest spaces are just a couple of locations where futons are appropriate for.
Another thing to consider when buying a bedroom set is how many pieces you want. For a couple, a bigger set with both a chest of drawers and a dresser is frequently required so that each person may have their own location to keep their garments. Often you are able to mix and match bedroom sets, and only buy the pieces you need.

The sweet, yet nervous Sara found a very loving and patient family yesterday! They were very understanding of her difficult life and were happy to give her all the love, time and patience she needs to be able to progress in a loving home. Nervous dogs are usually difficult for us to rehome as they do not fit the mould - they need dedicated people to work with them and bring them out of themselves. Sara came from a private shelter and so had better care than most of our dogs, however she was still very shy with new people. Adoptions like these are always very special to us and pull on our heart strings.
We wish them the very best of luck in their journey together!

Have fun you lovely lot!
This cute little fella was so scared of people he needed a special family who could give him time and gain his trust. Luckily for him he found a lovely couple who have dedicated so much time and energy into him and they decided to adopt him. It's amazing what time and love can do for a dog who's had a hard life. We are so grateful to the families who adopt our extra special dogs and give them a chance!

Millie arrived petrified, she hid in the back of her kennel, she ran away from you on the field and refused to walk on a lead.

Her mum understands that she still has a long way to go but she knew that Millie would never progress in kennels.
We've had our first adoption of 2020!
Isabella arrived in March 2019 and was a terrified but sweet little girl. She's been living with a lovely foster family and they've decided to adopt her so she now has a forever home all of her own!

Have a lovely life Bella!
We've had our final adoption of 2019 and it's a very special one. Iris has been adopted by her foster family!
Iris wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who donated towards helping to cover her medical bills. Her vet did more x-rays and they've decided that operating on her leg will cause more problems for her than it will fix (Any remaining money donated will stay in our vets account to help out the next dog in need!) so she had the all clear to be adopted just before Christmas!
Here is Iris with her big brother Lewis. They're waiting patiently for Santa and the elves tell us they're going to get very spoilt this year. The best gift of all for Iris was her new Mum and Dad giving her a forever home!
Biscuit has also been adopted this weekend! He spent exactly 10 months at the rescue centre. His new family adopted another dog from us last year called Lucy (you may remember her as Peg) and Biscuit absolutely loves her.
We're so happy for them all, have a lovely life little fella!

A little more upbeat news for you all today, our rescue Charlie, now Archie, has been adopted!
Charlie was in need of a foster placement due to a health issue when he met his forever family, they knew from the off that they wanted to adopt him and so he began a foster placement with a view to adoption. It wasn't an easy placement to say the least and they had their ups and downs but everyone worked very hard to help this adoption take place. Charlie's family have big hearts, they understood that taking on a Romanian rescue would be tough, and worked with the team to help Charlie begin to settle into home life. They are still working on him and are pushing forward as a team they also know that they have lifetime support from Oakwood and that we are there to provide any advice they need.
Wishing you all the best of luck! Here's to Charlie's first Christmas in his loving home.
Pretty Rosie has packed her bags and left the centre! She has gone to live further afield with her new Mum and Dad! As soon as this trio met they were meant to be. Rosie instantly connected with her new parents and we were told today that mum had a little tear up when Rosie entered the room the first time.
Rosie will now have a safe, warm and loving family home this Christmas. We wish them the very best of luck together!
Our gorgeous boy Frankie was so excited to be going home with his new mummy and daddy yesterday that he couldn't sit still! He loves his dad so much he couldn't hold back the kisses!

Good luck Franks!
You won't have seen much of this special little guy as he's been living with some lovely foster carers instead of at the centre. Captain has some extra special needs because he was born with a birth defect so his legs haven't grown properly and would have probably died in Romania if he hadn't come to England.

Wishing you lots of happiness boys, have fun together!

We're so happy for them all! Have a wonderful life together!

Chewie arrived at Oakwood very frightened. With lots of time and patience the staff and volunteers started to rebuild his trust in people but we only made slow progress. What he really needed was a special family who could see his potential and were willing to wait until he was ready to accept them.
We're pleased to say he's finally found them and they've adopted him!! Here he is taking a snooze in his comfy new bed. They know it will take him time to trust them and love them, but they're willing to wait until he's ready!
Good luck Chewie, we couldn't be any happier for you and your new parents!

We wish you the best of luck in your forever home Smokey!

If you have followed us for any length of time you will have seen Izzy's face plastered everywhere. This shy, yet stunning lady struggled so much in the kennels and was awaiting her forever home for 10 months!
Izzy has FINALLY been rehomed. As soon as she met her new family we knew it was meant to be, she got along great with her new brother and was putting her paw on her new mum and dad asking for treats. This was the most confident the staff had seen her with new people.
Izzy grew up in a Romanian shelter and never had a positive bond with a human. Originally she was so petrified she would wee if you touched her. She has really taken to her new mum and dad and has already started to create such a special bond with them. She was almost unrecognisable on her home check as she bounded over with confidence to greet us, tail up in the air waggling!
The gorgeous cuddle-bug Alf has found his forever mummy and daddy! He arrived very nervous and slowly became friendlier the longer he was at the centre.

Hazel is such a timid little girl but she won the hearts of her new owners and 4 legged brother Lenny the moment they met her.

We're very happy for them all and Misty has them wrapped around her little paw. Especially her new Dad who thought he wanted a "big dog".
We've got lots of families now who are fostering dogs who they will then adopt and we encourage you not to overlook foster dogs... they will be available to adopt sooner or later, you could be missing out on a little gem like Misty
Little Jenni has gone off to her forever home! This little lady began the week rather wary and shy, but by the end of her hometrial her confidence had greatly come on and she would instantly happy wag at the sight of her new mum and dad! She even said her goodbyes to everyone in reception as she was making her way out which she wouldn't have attempted before!
Adopting a nervous dog like Jenni is not only beneficial for the dog - getting them into a 121 environment with care and love, but it is so rewarding for the adopters - the first time they wag their tail, chase a ball and come for affection off of their own back is like hitting new miles stones each day! You see them flourish and grow in trust and confidence.

They showed him there are humans he can trust! Max's story touched the hearts of a special couple who saw past his initial nervousness and spent several hours tossing treats to him and gaining his confidence before he would even let them touch him. When they came to adopt him today he ran across the room bouncing up and down and wagging his tail he was so happy to see them!Some of our dogs get passed over because they won't immediately run over and say hello but if you're willing to work for it, you will reap the rewards!

You've finally gotten your orders, and surprise: you're transferring to Providence, RI!
Hang on a sec…Isn't Rhode Island the smallest state in the country? Is there even anything there? I don't know anything about that area, and now I'm moving my family there?
Here at PCSMoves.com, we're doing an ongoing series of entries about potential new duty stations and how to get your family situated. Each month, we'll cover different regions, served by the nationwide network of real estate professionals that make up PCSMoves.com. Click here to read our last post about Tampa, FL.
There are 3 military bases in Rhode Island: Naval Station Newport and 2 Coast Guard bases: Station Castle Hill in Newport and Station Point Judith in Narragansett. Naval Station Newport is home to the Naval War College and the Naval Justice School, as well as Marine Corps Detachment Newport.
Providence was one of the first cities in the country to industrialize and became noted for its textile manufacturing and subsequent machine tool, jewelry, and silverware industries. Today, the city is home to 8 hospitals and 7 institutions of higher learning, which have shifted the city's economy into service industries, though it still retains some manufacturing activity.
As of 2016, Providence's population was estimated to be 179,219.
If you're moving there without a place to live, the Navy Lodge in Newport is about 33.5 miles southeast of Providence. Staying at the lodge for a week or two can take off some of the pressure you might be feeling while looking for a place to live.
PCSLodging.com reported, "Military lodging is not available at the Coast Guard's Providence, RI facility, however, temporary lodging is available at several hotels/motels in the local community."
If the family pet with you for this move, check with the Navy Lodge before you arrive to find out if they have any of their pet-friendly rooms available. If they aren't, the staff may be able to give you some kennel information. If pets are allowed, be sure to ask if there will be pet fees due at check-in.
If the Navy Lodge is full, there are a couple of other options. There is also a Navy Gateway Inn available at NS Newport, which may have space available if the Lodge is full. Their phone number is 401-841-7900. The Newport Chalet also offers temporary accommodations at NS Newport and can be reached 24 hours a day, at 401-841-7900.
Should you decide to buy or rent a home, "The median home value in Providence is $185,700. Providence home values have gone up 11.8% over the past year and Zillow predicts they will rise 4.4% within the next year…The median price of homes currently listed in Providence is $199,900 while the median price of homes that sold is $194,016. The median rent price in Providence is $1,900, which is higher than the Providence Metromedian of $1,800," according to Zillow.
The 2018 Base Housing Allowance (BAH) rates are listed online if you need a refresher.
NS Newport on post housing is privately owned and operated by Balfour Beatty Communities. Call the Newport housing office to learn more about types of homes and availability, at 401-841-3576.
If you've made a PCS move with the military packing you out, a bonus is not worrying about storing your personal belongings while you're looking for a place to live. Your household belongings may take longer to get to you, but they can be stored for you if they arrive while you're still looking for housing.
If you've made this as a personal move, chances are you didn't bring everything with you that you owned in your previous home. If you need to pick up a few items for your new home, Yelp has a list of The Best 10 Thrift Stores in Providence, RI.
Your new life in Providence can't revolve around what's on-base! Get out of there and live like a local! When you get a chance, check out Louis Family Restaurant. Guy Fieri featured this diner on "Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives" on Food Network in 2009.
If you're still looking for more of what Providence is like, follow PCSMoves on Pinterest to check out our "How To PCS Like A Pro" and our "Life in Providence, RI" boards.
Where has been your favorite place to live? Share with us in the comments! Thinking about looking for a new home because of a PCS move? Start your search with us!

President Jacob Zuma has defended the Gupta family and questioned the decision by South African banks to abruptly close all their accounts.
In his last Q&A session for the year in Parliament on Wednesday, he said the banks' decision needed to be investigated as "it does not look innocent."
702's Stephen Grootes spoke to political analyst, Ralph Mathekga, in an attempt to make sense of the matter.
The Gupta family has been at the center of state capture allegations due to their close business and personal relationship with Zuma.
He is defending the Gupta family and this is contrast to a position that has been taken by another member of his cabinet, that is Pravin Gordhan.— Ralph Mathekga, political analyst
Mathekga said he suspects that Zuma's comments forms part of a strategy that will see him challenge the State of Capture Report as well as the banks in court.
It goes beyond just defending the Guptas. I get an indication of a strategy how they will take the decision to court.— Raplh Mathekga, political analyst

Change is daunting. While they say that a change is as good as a rest, the thought of changing careers, giving up your well paid job and following your passion instead to go freelance can be heart palpitation inducing. If your current role isn't challenging, lacks stimulation and has you bored sat at your desk for eight hours a day, five days a week, then something has to change. While you might be financially well rewarded you might not be personally fulfilled. This is why you need to consider the joys of going freelance. You will dictate your hours, the work you take on and how much you charge. Take a look at why becoming a freelancer could be the change you've been looking for.
What To Do?
If you enjoy the industry that you're in but you don't like the position you currently have, you could switch it up by going freelance but remaining within your sector. You might want to continue with your marketing job, branch into advertising or specialize in online marketing. The choice is yours. If you are a financial whiz, it might be time to look into those niche markets such as providing accountancy services to IT contractors or SMEs. By finding a targeted niche, you could find yourself quickly in demand as the larger companies focus on more standard and well-tapped markets.
You may fancy a break away from your current career. Switching roles will require retraining, but this can be exciting. Get an IT qualification, become a web developer, use WordPress on docker to create incredible websites for companies across the globe, and make a name for yourself worldwide. This isn't as far fetched as it sounds.
Why Freelance?
The joys of freelance are tenfold. You can have the odd pajama day, work at your dining room table sipping your favorite coffee, and taking a break to watch an episode from the box set that you're currently getting through. At the same time, freelancing introduces a whole new world of temptation to your working life. You cannot afford to procrastinate, scroll through Facebook for hours at a time, or sleep in. You need to be disciplined and willing to self motivate in order to get a day's work done. While this is difficult initially, when the work rolls in, you won't have a choice. Being freelance will result in lulls. During these periods you need to try and make new connections and enhance your online presence to attract traffic to your website to generate new business.
Being a freelancer might seem like the ultimate freedom. And it is. But you also need to be willing to put the hard work in initially in order to create your book of contacts for work. Realizing that every business function of your startup is your responsibility can come as a shock, so you need to be willing to delegate and outsource. Follow this guide and use your newfound willingness to change to follow your passion and become a freelancer.

(Cards from The Wild Unknown Tarot Deck)
Lift your head to the sight of the waning Moon. You are reaching the end of something. Soon, you will be called upon to make a choice – a big choice. This choice will change or at least affect seriously the course of your life. That's the sort of time we're in right now. As a species, as a global society, as individuals, we are coming upon major choices, karmic choices. Partners, tribes, careers, homes, children. Choices. Decisions. Commitments. When you reach a junction in life, it might appear that you have many choices. But your spiritual self will see that not all the paths that seem to be available are actually open. And sometimes, when you reach a junction, none of the paths are open yet. Sometimes, you have to complete one journey before you can begin the next. Today, you might feel like you are taking those last steps. Today, perhaps you'll feel weary and not want to take those steps. Please do it anyway. You'll be SO HAPPY that you did! Today, you may feel as though the way isn't open—and that probably means it's not. Not today. But a way, THE way, ONE way will soon open. And when it does, will you be ready to take that path, never to look back? This is the seriousness of the times we're in. Tie up your loose ends. Dot your I's. Cross your T's. Let people know you love them. Spend the time that you can. Keep watch. Get ready. Ache. 🙏🏼

The Isle of Jura distillery produces a Single Malt closer in character to the Highlands than to the Islands malt whiskies. With a golden yellow colour, the nose is flavoured with fruity notes over a malted barley and smoky backdrop. The rich, full-bodied mouth reveals a salty character and the finish marks a return of cereals with a hint of oranges, honey, cappuccino and sea breeze.
This whisky reveals incredible sweetness and strong fruitiness (pear).

Some say Isle of Jura is the oldest distillery of Scotland. Indeed, the first traces of distillation hark back to the 16th century. The distillery was renamed several times. It successively bore the name of Caol'nan Eilean, Craighouse, Small Isles and Lagg.
Built in 1810, the first to obtain a license to distil is William Abercrombie, in 1831. In the following year, Archibald Fletcher took over the distillery and managed for 20 years. It changed owner many times in the 19th century: J&A Gardner, Norman Buchanan, J.K. & D. Orr and James Furgusson. As the landlord decided to collect taxes on the land, the Furgusson family moved all the equipment to Glasgow. This did not deter the landlord to pursue the Furgusson's who came back to the Isle of Jura and dismantled the distillery's roofs. Indeed, law exempted all roofless structures from taxation. More recently, after 40 years of closure between 1914 and 1948, the distillery was fully rebuilt with financial support from Scottish & Newcastle Breweries. The architect who rebuilt the distillery is well known in the whisky world, as it is Delmé Evans, who also rebuilt, amongst others, the Glenallachie and Tullibardine distilleries.
The Scottish & Newcastle Breweries sold the distillery to Invergordon, which was purchased by White & Mackay and became in 2001 Kyndal Spirits. The Kyndal Spirits became in 2003 Whyte & Mackay Ltd. The distillery is one of the flagships of Whyte & Mackay. The wide and tall stills of the distillery have been conceived to produce a light distillate, enabling Isle of Jura to contribute to the Whyte & Mackay blends. The range has considerably expanded these last few years also with the creation of peated versions of Jura whisky.

"Absolute power can corrupt even the purest of hearts. Such is the folly of men…"
One thousand years ago, the great Kami Dragon was summoned to grant a single terrible wish—and the land of Iwagoto was plunged into an age of darkness and chaos.
Now, for whoever holds the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers, a new wish will be granted. A new age is about to dawn.
With an army of demons and the unlikeliest of allies, secrets are more than a matter of life or death. They are the key to the fate of the world itself….
"The tiniest pebble, when dropped into a pond, will leave ripples that will grow and spread in ways we cannot comprehend"
I really enjoyed the read along I experienced with 2 dear friends. This book got me hooked from the first page, so much happened virtually straight away. I loved how the story line explored the Japanese culture and legend and I would recommend this to readers who loved Kylie Chan's "Dark Heavens" series. It was captivating, action packed and really intriguing.
The only flaw was the confusing switching of perspectives throughout the book. Normally it's quite clear whose voice we are reading but this one took me a moment or 2 in the next chapter before I realised who we were following. But other than that, it was a great book! A great story with strong Asian cultural representation, so much action particularly from the first chapter that really caught my attention and maintained the pace throughout the book. I particularly loved the ending and I will be investing in the next book.
With special thanks to Book Depository for sending me this book as a thank you for when I engaged in their mini Blogstars project. It's really worth the read!

Yes they sill existing, clams that live on trees. Her name is mangrove jingle shell (Enigmonia aenigmatica) and they come from Southeast Asia. The photography below was taken in the Halong Bay/Vietnam. The clams were found on small mangrove bushes. They live on the upper side of leaves, also in uppermost parts of the trees, where water is available only during spring tide.
