Operation Christmas Child is in full effect here in Huntington Beach. This is a drive to collect shoeboxes full of gifts that will then be shipped all over the world. If all goes according to plan, kids from over a 100 countries will be receiving these special holiday care packages. Inside will be toys, school supplies, and Christmas greetings. You can even track where you box lands with an extra donation. This is all an effort of the Calvary Chapel in Huntington Beach to make sure Christmas is bright and merry all across the globe.
This is the time of year where everyone opens up their hearts to donate to those in need. If you’re not buying a new toy or volunteering to feed the disadvantaged, you might consider clearing your home of some unwanted items. There could be an entire closet worth of clothes that you no longer wear. Maybe you’re replacing a few furniture items this year. Even cleaning out your kitchen cabinets can fill up a couple of boxes of household goods. The question then becomes, “What are you going to do with all of that?” A simple answer is to turn it over to Junk King Orange County.
These are the junk removal specialists who make donating to charities part of their daily drop off routes. Ever since Junk King opened for business, they’ve been a green kind of company.

You can tell Junk King Orange County which items you think would be useful for a charity or just trust them to do the right thing.
As you go through your home looking for those donations, you might also come across those things that are beyond repair. Sometimes junk is just junk.

You might not be able to give away a pool table or hot tub but Junk King can take those things apart and make sure they’re recycled.

We all know the importance of having a good breakfast. To reinforce that healthy message, SoCal McDonald’s in Orange County offered a free breakfast on the first day of school for any student who came in with an adult. Nothing says breakfast like an Egg McMuffin!
For most of the country, grilling season begins on Memorial Day and wraps up on Labor Day. Sure, there might be sporadic instances of grilling throughout the year but most folks really don’t think about grilling when it gets cold. Fortunately here in the OC every day is a sunny day but that doesn’t mean we haven’t experience the occasional cold snap of winter. If you’re going to fire up the grill when the temperature dips you should consider these helpful tips:
If you’re seriously considering downsizing then you should take the time to plan out exactly what you expect to get from this experience. This is especially true with all of your stuff. Once you have a true sense of where you’ll be moving into you can gauge what you can take with you. You might have some very lovely pieces of furniture or decorations but it’s time to either put them in storage, give them away or toss them out. Embracing downsizing means you’ll want to minimize the stuff you bring with you. Putting items in storage might defeat that purpose. You might also feels pangs of guilt knowing that you’ve got things waiting to be brought back out in a bigger place. That’s not what downsizing is all about. It’s about managing your time better, saving money and creating a cozier environment.
Let’s be honest; hot tubs are really for the adults in the room. Sure kids can enjoy the warm waters but try keeping a kid still in a tub. It’s not going to happen. Most people like to think of their hot tubs as a reward for a hard day’s work. After listening to a boss ramble on all day and being stuck in traffic what could be more welcoming than coming home to a soothing soak in a hot tub. Crack open a bottle of wine and you’ve got the makings for a perfect evening. Sounds great doesn’t it? So, why aren’t you using your hot tub for that? Could it be your hot tub should be condemned?
Recycling is definitely a feel-good kind of activity. Once you have embraced the concept then anything you can divert from a landfill is going to be a good thing. Sure, one soda can might not make all that much of a difference but if everybody in Orange County recycles every soda can then you’re talking tons of trash and that’s just on your average weekend! Have you ever seen a ton of trash? A literal ton of trash? It’s huge. If that amount of trash can be re purposed and reused on a regular business then it’s going to be good for our beaches, water supply, farms and any other part of nature. This is why so many companies and local governments want to be in the eco-friendly business: It’s what the people want.
Orange County includes many cities and wonderful destinations in the Southern California area. By far the most popular attraction has got to be Anaheim’s Disneyland. Since its opening back in the 50s, Disneyland has proudly proclaimed to be the “happiest place on earth.” To the millions of visitors who have streamed through that park every year that is certainly a true statement.
