Most of us are shower people and that’s a shame. Yes, it’s quicker to hop into the shower before dashing off to work. It’s also a lot easier to get things done in terms of shampooing and scrubbing. But who doesn’t love a good soak in a tub? Usually, when we say we’re taking a bath we need to carve out about an hour’s worth of peace and quiet. It’s going to take time to fill up the tub to right volume and water temperature. Then you want to get things ready like a few well placed candles, a glass of wine and of course, some bubbles. Once you sink into the soothing waters, you can relax; that is of course if the rest of your family will cooperate. Is there an easier way to get this same kind of relaxation in a quarter of the time? It is if you have a hot tub.
A modern hot tub is engineered for convenience. When you walk through the door at the end of a hard work day, you can simply click on a remote to fire up the heat and jets. By the time you get into your swim trunks and open up your wine, the hot tub will be ready for your arrival. No bubbles but you won’t even think of those once you hit those warm waters. The outward benefits of soaking in a hot tub are immediate. Tension flies out of your muscles with every sigh. What you don’t see working is how much better your blood circulation is improving. Those warm waters open up the vessels which allow for a better flow. That’s good all around especially for bringing down high blood pressure numbers a few notches. Dipping into a hot tub just before heading to bed is also a natural sleep inducer. Put aside those sleeping pills and use the hot tub instead.
All of this tub talk is probably making you rethink the unit you’ve got sitting in your backyard. Most of the unused backyard hot tubs are items that have been left over from previous owners or merely neglected because of a broken motor. Maybe it’s time to toss out that clunker and bring in a new model. To accomplish that you’ll want to give Junk King Minneapolis a holler.
Junk King Minneapolis is part of a national franchise of junk removers who are well adept at handling big items like a hot tub. They’ll be able to fit the hot tub onto the back of their truck with no problem but first they’ll have to disassemble it. That’s going to take time. Here’s the great thing about Junk King: you’re not going to be charged an hourly rate. Instead, Junk King charges you by volume as in how much space will you take up on their truck. So even if it’s a couple of hours to break down that tub, there will be no hidden fees. The sooner you can get rid of that clunker the sooner you can get the new model in and start relaxing.
We all love our microwaves and televisions. Our fridges and stoves are pretty cool too but if there is one item in our home that is of vital importance it’s our mattress. Without a good night’s sleep none of those other appliances will matter: we’ll just be too grumpy to use them! There could be many reasons why you can’t drift off to sleep but one of the most common ailments is that you’re sleeping on the wrong mattress for your body type. This might come as a surprise to many. After all, you’ve been sleeping on that same mattress for years.
Right now residential recycling in Minneapolis is a little like color coordinating outfits. There are certain bags required for certain recyclable materials. These are considered “multi-sort” collection systems that puts the onus on the recycler to figure out which trash goes in which bag. While everyone around the Twin Cities was doing their part, it can lend to some confusion about what is supposed to go where. All of that is about to change as Minneapolis is going to switch over from “multi-sort” to “single-sort.” Now everything that is deemed recyclable can be placed into one bin for an easy pickup. The objective of this switch is to increase the rate of recyclables from its current 18% to 32%. This is a completely obtainable goal as it has been reached in other cities that also made the switch.
International Market Square is one of the many gems of commercial spaces operating in Minneapolis. Never heard of IMS? Here’s how they like to describe themselves: “IMS is the largest home and commercial interior design marketplace in the Upper Midwest. Open to both the home/commercial design community and the public, visitors are invited to explore our more than seventy showrooms, studios, shops, galleries, restaurants and other distinct amenities.” In other words, if you’re looking for inspiration on how to redecorate your home the IMS should be your first stop.
Like it or not, storm season is upon us. In fact, here in Minneapolis we’re already getting a taste of tornadoes and they’re showing up far earlier this year. Weather forecasters use every tool at their disposal to predict weather patterns which could develop into a powerful storm. But as is often the case, Mother Nature will always have the last word. There is simply no telling where a storm is going to touch down or how much damage it might cause. However, if there is one thing you can count on its that the folks living in Minneapolis will pitch in to help out their neighbors when disaster strikes. That’s why some many people love to call Minneapolis “home.”
Back in 1975, a two-acre public space called Peavey Plaza opened for all the visitors and residents of downtown Minneapolis to enjoy. This was originally conceived as a kind of peaceful oasis in the midst of a concrete jungle. There was a terraced amphitheatre space along with a drainable reflecting pool that could easily be converted into an outdoor stage space or ice rink. To make for completely tranquil surroundings there was a noise absorbing waterfall and garden rooms. By 1999 Peavey Plaza was named as one of the finest examples of urban landscape architecture. That was then.
