A Day in Branson, Missouri

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hiltons of Branson. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hey there friends. I recently wrote that I need a vacation.  Too much pressure in the work place and it doesn't help that I live in Los Angeles, CA.  A very dense and over populated city.  Don't get me wrong, I love my home town and my job, but sometimes you just want to step away and take a breather from the city and work life.  How fitting that I stumble across an awesome vacation package to visit the heartland of America, Branson, Missouri.

Going through some of the vacation packages at both the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel and the Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing, I'm loving the Bed & Breakfast deal.  And it's summed up perfectly, "Leave the stress of the work week behind and relax and revive with a Hilton Bed & Breakfast weekend."  Yup, that's definitely something that I am in desperate need of.  Though I am sure that the wife would want me to seriously consider the "Shopping Package", but I'm looking for some off time and leisure activities.  Maybe I'd take advantage and have a nice round of golf or two.  We'd definitely go and and "Ride the Ducks".  From what I hear, it's a must if you're in Branson and check out some of the fine dining by stopping by at Cantina Laredo or check out the wonderful atmosphere at Buckingham's Restaurant & Oasis.

Ans then to take it all back and relax at the Hilton Promenade would be the icing on the cake.  A little fishing or a nice dip in the pool would be the perfect way to end the day.  Yup.  I definitely need a vacation and staying at the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel is definitely up for consideration.  Check it out friends and take a minute to consider joining me in the heartland of America.  Later!

Feeling Burnt Out by Work

Hey there. I've had a pretty rough stretch of work these past couple of weeks and I feel like it's time for some time off. The problem? I'm not sure when I can take it... I was hoping to get a day off this week... That's not going to happen. I was hoping to take a week off, you know a "vacation", but I don't know when that's going to happen either. I've been swamped with work and reports and research that it's simply burning me out. The plan, as of a few minutes ago, looks something like this:

Wednesday: Conference calls with accounts.
Thursday: Go to San Francisco to meet with an account on Thursday. (Nothing is reserved)
Friday: Reporting needs to be entered and research needs to be presented in sales meeting. Conference calls with Customer Service to discuss issues.

And on top of that, my son is having his hearing checked again so I can't be there for him... AGAIN!!! I feel as if I just need to step away for a bit. Let myself recover from the chaos that is my job.  I need a vacation... bad...  but with all the work that needs to be done... who knows when that will happen.  Later!

“Arby’s Juniorize” Me

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Arby's. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hey there friends.  Those of you who know me know I love food.  I've never been one to pass up a great burger or sandwich.  Especially if it's on the low side in terms of dollars.  That is one the reason's why I've always been a fan of Arby's.  Not only are they're burgers and sandwiches great, but they're at a low price too.  And to promote the awesomeness that is Arby's, here's Junior (retro-cool Arby’s Jr. character) with a few words. 

Notice anything about "Junior"?  That's my face!  HA!  You can Create Your Own Personalized Arby's Jr. and add a personal message to spread the word about Arby's!  I've always loved the interactive side of things and I uploaded a pretty goofy photo of myself and the result is what you see above!  HA!  Check it out and friends and create your own "Junior" and send to friends with a personalized message of your choosing!  Arby's makes it extremely easy to share with just a few clicks.  So let's see (and hear it) friends.  What does your Junior say!?  Until then, later!!!

The Truth About Mirrors

Not sure what's wrong with you ladies but there's nothing wrong with the mirror!

What's the Medical Term for Lazy?

A man worried about his stamina decided to go to a doctor to get checked out.

"Doc, I'm just not able to do all the things around the house that I used to.  What's wrong with me?"

The doctor then starts his examination and once he's finished, he gives the man an uneasy look.

"Doc, just tell me in plain english.  I can take it.", the man declares.

"Well," the doctors says, "in plain English...  you're just lazy."

"Ok...", says the man, "now give me the medical term so I can tell my wife that."
