1000-yulin-dogs-in-cages1 This might not break your heart.

My heart and soul burst with so much pain seeing this.

Please stop this Festival from happening again this year. If we cannot save all, let’s save some.

Summer is almost here, and most of all the kids are out of school. So now you are wondering what to do with them.

family Here are some excellent ideas to get you started on a fun safe summer!

Organized a Play Date – Get together with parents and assigned each a day to take care of the kids for a couple of hours or for the day.
Check the YMCA – You might be able to enroll your child on a specific event or outing to keep them busy.
Check your School – Summer programs are everywhere. Your child school will have a great schedule and it can be cost-effective.
Check your Church or Organization – They may be offering schedule activities or even camp for the summer.
Organized Field Trip and make sure you get a group discount – The trip can consist of going to your local museum, parks, restaurants and even the movie theater. Oh, and don’t forget the beach. Kids love to play in the sand.

Enjoy your summer!

Got the writer’s blog blues, here are five easy way to get focus again.

Stop what you are doing. – That’s right, just stop! Looking at your laptop, Chromebook, Mac or Tablet is not going to help you out. Take a break, walk away, do something else for a while, then try again.
Take a walk or a drive. – Figure it out, where you usually do your best brain storming? Go there and get your energy recharge again. Do not forget to write down your ideas on a simple pad or even yet, record a voice memo.
Communicate – Talking is the best way to get your idea out. Have a conversation with those friends you have been neglecting lately. See what they are up to. You might be inspired, they might have some great ideas to pass along.
Read a book, watch T.V., listen to some music. you might be surprise. – A phrase, something that caught your eye while watching, reading, might stir you back in the right direction.
Sleep – Yes, this is what could be why you are not being creative. Lack of sleep or just simply hungry can make you go “zombie”.

Why not lets throw another one,

You might just need some good old “TLC”.
