What’s a sure sign that the holidays are upon us? For many families, the official kick-off for the season is a visit to the Singing Christmas Tree. This is the 58th year that the tree has been entertaining folks from all over the area. This year, the Grey Seal Puppets and Carolina Voices’ Main Stage Choir will be the featured performers. A terrific treat for the whole family.
Once you’ve seen the Singing Christmas tree it will be time to make room for your own Christmas tree. Everybody has their own traditions when it comes to decorating. There are some who prefer a single color scheme while others go in for the rainbow of twinkle lights. Either way you’re going to have to make room for that tree. Will you be moving furniture around? Do you even have room to move furniture around? If you have found yourself crowded out in your own home by all your stuff, it might be time for a clearing. And the best partner for this project would be Junk King Charlotte.
Junk King is Charlotte’s junk removal specialists. Although they’re be doing most of the work, you’ve got to get the process started by going through your home and figuring out what you finally want to get rid of. This doesn’t mean you’ve got to move any of those items. In fact, you can leave them right where they are; the Junk King crew will pick them up from there. All you have to do is point and say, “Take it out!” This would be the perfect opportunity to get rid of all that old furniture that has become an eyesore. Maybe you’ve been looking for a new sofa/loveseat combination. Well, if your old one suddenly “disappears” clearly you’ll have to buy that new one!
You can also go through your closets, garage, attic, basement or spare room to find even more clutter. Keep in mind that Junk King will be pulling up to your house in a big empty truck. That truck is all yours to fill up with whatever you want to get rid of. And don’t stop with the inside of your house. The Junk King crew will also make a tour of your yards to pick up anything like broken up pieces of a patio, lawn furniture, grills, hot tubs or even an above ground swimming pool. All of that junk can become a fleeting memory with Junk King Charlotte on the job.
As soon as you’re completely clutter free you can bust out the holiday decorations and go to town! When you’re creating that cozy atmosphere it’s always best to do it in a clean home! Call Junk King today to get started!
One of the newest trends in gym is the so-called “anytime” gym. Much like 7-11, these gyms are open around the clock. It might seem odd to get in a workout at 3:00 a.m. but surprisingly enough there are plenty of folks who are working odd shifts and their three in the morning is like high noon for the rest of us. The 24 hour gym concept developed out of a need to provide flexibility for members.
Now that the holiday shopping rush is officially over it’s time to look forward to the New Year and figure out what you really need around the house. Sure, you might have received plenty of thoughtful gifts but were they what you really needed such as a new refrigerator or dishwasher? While it is true that those big ticket items aren’t usually associated with holiday gift giving that doesn’t mean you wouldn’t appreciate trading in your old faulty appliances for brand-new versions. You might be pleasantly surprised to discover that major kitchen appliances are being sold at sharp discounts. That’s because stores want to move out their inventory from last year and make way for the newer models.
If there is one way to find out exactly who you’re working with it’s the office Christmas party. This is the perfect time of the year when your co-workers get the chance to “let their hair down” and not be focused on work. Sure, you’ve probably already have your own “lunch group” of co-workers that you’re friendly with. Depending on the size of your office, it is conceivable you’re working with folks you only know from a name on a memo. This is especially true in a multi-floor office. No matter how many employees work for your company, you should make the most of the office Christmas party to break away from your lunch clique and meet your fellow co-workers. You might just be surprised as how much you have in common with those folks beyond having a paycheck signed by the same person!
If you think that hurricane season is getting rougher each year you’re not alone. Not only are more powerful storms starting earlier in the season, but that are bringing with that a more devastating path of destruction. Thanks to early warning systems, we can be prepared when a tropical storm turns into a hurricane. Since Hurricane Katrina, folks are smart enough not to take any chances when the evacuation order comes in. Even if that order never comes, there are also important steps that people can take to prepare themselves. The bottom line is prepare for the worst.
A cynic might tell you that you have a greater chance of being struck by lightning than you do of winning the lottery. Try telling that to the McCauleys of Charlotte, North Carolina. In the last 20 years some member of this family has won the lotto three times. Back in 1991, the family pulled in their first haul of 15.5 million bucks. You think that would be enough to keep them happy! 16 years later another family member took home $160,000 from the North Carolina education lottery. And now recently yet another member of the McCauley clan bought a scratcher ticket winning her $100,000. Clearly this is a family you don’t want to stand next to in a lightning storm!
Anyone who spent a significant amount of time flying knows how delicate the air traffic system is. No matter where bad weather happens it can have a ripple effect all across the country. Recently severe thunderstorms in New York forced the cancellation of several flights for US Airways which had about 100 passengers spending the night at Charlotte international Airport. Although the kids who were traveling might have thought this was a grand adventure mom and dad certainly weren’t happy campers. It’s not the first time that a storm somewhere else in the country caused trouble for Charlotte. In fact most of the storms that rampage through our city start somewhere else but that doesn’t mean we don’t get the brunt their fury.
