Old age comes for us all, but when it happens to a beloved grandmother or neighbor, it can be hard to watch them lose their independence when they're no longer allowed to drive. One way to help them restore their mobility is by arranging non-emergency transportation for their daily needs, but how can you be sure those drivers are safe? Here are a few methods for vetting strangers behind the wheel. Look Into Their Driving Record If they're part of an official transportation company, these records should be on-file and accessible to any concerned party.

This maybe a good thing, because it will help me cut back on those carbs, or I will have to suffer in the bathroom.

I know I am the cause of the condition, however, I am trying to fix that and it was hard when the condition was working against me. I want the weather to … [Read more...]

Thanks to Walmart and them starting to honor competitor deals a week early, I was thinking Thanksgiving was this Thursday, I was a bit bummed out when I learned Thanksgiving wasn't until next week. How many of you are thrilled to know that on Friday the 22nd, Walmart will be price matching the competitors black Friday deals? What does this mean for all the other stores on Black Friday? If I had money I would think this was awesome, since I live in a smaller town all we have is Walmart.

I tend to stay out of most the stores until after Christmas! … [Read more...]
