Remember Their Sacrifice
Today is Veteran's Day. A time to reflect on what we can achieve, what we can experience, and what we can contribute due to the protectiveness that our American soldiers supply to us each and every day. If it were not for them, we would be living in a non-free country. And, to me, that is frightening.
We cannot possibly know the sacrifice that each and every soldier gives for US - that is unless we have a husband or a wife, a son or a daughter in the military - then we would know all too well about the word sacrifice.
I personally would like to thank all military families for your sacrifice - not just today but every day. You give away family milestones, you give away your time, and some ultimately give away their lives for us. No phrase could ever say "thank you" enough, but hope you take the humble phrase and know that we care and appreciate everything you and your family continue to do for us.
*************************************************************************************
Here are some special deals for anyone serving in the military and also for Veterans. Enjoy your day!

REVIEW - The Power of Respect by Deborah Norville
I just finished The Power of Respect by Deborah Norville and what a great book! She shows the importance of respect in so many different ways - from relationships to business to children. It is all there. And she writes the book in which the words stay deep within your soul.
There were so many things that I enjoyed about the book. One, for instance, is all throughout the book there are quotes written alongside the pages - and these are not just words written on paper - these are quotes to ponder on, to learn from. One of my favorite quotes from her book: "Discipline doesn't break a child's spirit as often as the lack of it breaks a parents heart."
I loved her interviews and scenario stories that she had with others in her particular chapters. She would describe a certain "respect" and then she would show how it has helped someone else along.
This book is right on the money! I feel that if everyone would pick this book up, read it, let the words sink into our hearts, this world would be much more respectful! And, there is POWER IN RESPECT!

The Value of Being Grateful For What You Have
We are surrounded by lack - the lack of money to buy gas for our cars, the lack of time to make more money and a lack of gratitude for what we have. Fortunate or not we can always be worse off than we are now and somebody always has it worse than we do. The best way for us to value our present day happiness and gratitude for what we have is to live up to our potential. I don't know any happy people who can't pay their mortgage yet they are happy. If you can't pay your mortgage you can't be happy but you can be grateful if you can afford to rent another house or an apartment. Happiness is earned and it will never come to you no matter how much money you have. Being grateful for what you have is mandatory if you are ever to be happy.
If you can't pay your mortgage it's a good time to change your life and change is always energizing. Energy is what you need in the face of a challenge that is detrimental to your values and threatens your lifestyle. If you can't pay your mortgage, not living in your dream home, or if you are currently renting, be grateful that you can start to improve your plight today. Possessing the values of being happy and grateful for what you have are character traits you fall back on when times are hard. If you don't value being happy even in the darkest times you will never be grateful for long. Happiness is what you have before, during and after you don't have money or had your home foreclosed on. It is not possible to be happy 100% of the time but we must try at least 98% to come out of our funk, shake it off, buck up and regroup.
Gratitude and the practice of being grateful allows you to focus on only positive issues that can help you get through a bad time. So many people are living from paycheck to paycheck, in danger of living in their cars or having their cars repossessed. Survival for many of us has replaced the hope of the possibility of being happy one day. Even as you are only surviving you have the abilities, tools and possibly the time to earn happiness. Some people are just getting by, struggling and surviving. Other people are making the necessary sacrifices that will lead to the achievement of their ultimate goal. They may be neighbors. One neighbor may be living within their means and the other neighbor may be stress out over money because they are financially over extended. Happiness is earned by making good decisions that contribute to what you identify as happiness.
The values of being happy and grateful for what you have are values to possess no matter how much money you have and no matter where you live. Our values have a lot to do with how we live. If we only value money to make us happy, we can never be happy for long. Being grateful for having money only leaves you nothing to be grateful if you somehow lose your money. The things you like have value and being happy means loving and respecting yourself. Doing the things you enjoy doing have value. If you don't like baseball, it's value to you is not as great as the person who loves baseball. Likewise the values of being happy and grateful for what you have.
Many of us, in the course of our lives, find ourselves in a position where we don't feel that we are happy. We are not happy because we weigh too much, we are not happy because we don't have children, we are not happy because we are struggling financially. Some of us have no control over matters of health and we still must find value in being happy and grateful for what you have. For some of us our bad habits keep us from realizing the fullest extent of our potential and our greatest capacity for happiness. The values of being happy and grateful for what we have are innate.
So it is up to you today to decide - are you grateful for what you have? If not, how can you change this?
Have a grateful day!

BOOK REVIEW - How To Be Famous by Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt
"From braving the wilds of Los Angeles to the Costa Rican jungle, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have learned a thing or two about reality...television that is.....Now, for the first time ever, Heidi and Spencer invite you behind the scenes as they reveal the ten-step plan that took from nobodies to notorious!"
I was so excited to receive this book to review because I am a HUGE fan of The Hills - always have, always will be. And Speidi (Heidi and Spencer) sure know how to keep the drama rolling! I have always liked Heidi and thought that she would be better off with someone much nicer and that actually was able to get along with her friends but, instead, she has given up her friends for Spencer. But we all know the story - all too well.
I read this book in basically one sitting. I was extremely disappointed in the book. Heidi is a very well-educated woman but this book, I felt, could have been written by a 10-year-old. It was so cheesy throughout the entire book that I could almost not stomach to read it - but I did, hoping it would get better in the end. And, it did get better when it was THE END.
I did, however, enjoy the loads of pictures in the book. I am a true fan of Heidi, so that was the only good thing about the book. Let me clarify, the general pictures, not the step-by-step tutorial on how to say "I hate you" without opening your mouth. Come on now, Heidi. That was a bit ridiculous.
So my overall rating of this book, on a scale of 1 to 5, would sadly be a 1, and that is only due to the pictures that I enjoyed looking at - otherwise, it would have been off the scale as a big fat ZERO. Maybe next time Heidi!

EARLY BLACK FRIDAY ADS
So Black Friday is a VERY important day for me. HA! It is the day that I look forward to all year besides the actual day of Christmas. I have been scouring tons of locations to find the ad "leaks" and here is what I found so far. Be prepared, my hunt is not complete yet - there will be more! =)
*** SEARS ***
Click here ---> http://www.black-friday.net/sears-ad-scan.html# Not only are they offering over 599 Doorbuster items, but they are including a $10 off coupon if you use it before noon. By the way - they open at 4 a.m.!
*** TOYS - R - US ***
Click here ---> http://www.black-friday.net/toys-r-us-big-toy-book-ad-scan.html to read the 80-page ad plus they have 2 free $10 coupons on the front...And if you spend a total of $30, you get a free Toy Story backpack. I am assuming while supplies last.
*** WAL-MART 100 TOYS FOR $10.00 ***
Wal-Mart ad is supposed to be released this coming week, so please check back to see what their deals are. Here is a press release about their 100 toys for $10.00.
The $10 toys assortment is the first of several programs Walmart will announce this holiday season to bring 12 weeks of added savings in a year that has been increasingly tough on consumer wallets.
The $10 toys are not limited time offers, but last through the Christmas holiday. In addition, Walmart’s price guarantee will match any local competitor’s advertised offer on the same toy product if it falls below $10.
Walmart $10 Toy Highlights:
