So today is one of those days where I definitely wish I could rewind the day and begin again. The Youngest Princess had a doctor’s appointment this morning; nothing special just a 15 month old check up with no shots involved. It should be simple to breeze in and out of the office in a small amount of time with a limited amount of tears, right? Not so much. On the contrary, I thought it strange that as we left, the entire Doctor’s office staff – doctors, nurses, assistants, and front office staff – stood at attention in a grand receiving line and applauded our departure. Isn’t it amazing that they give such quality and affirming service? What?! You think that after 39 minutes of crying, nay screaming and wallering (and that was just me), that perhaps they were glad to see us go? Well I never! So maybe I’m exaggerating a little bit but you get the picture. It’s one of those befrazzled sort of days where I wish that my children were perfect, I had time enough to give every detail of my day the attention that it deserves, and I didn’t feel like crawling up into a fetal position and napping. Are you with me?
So it feels like I’m need of a fresh start to this day! And that’s what I’m doing right now, helping you plow through some deals and daily freebies, giving you a bit of a financial fresh start hopefully. Lady Allison and the fine folks at Mom Central also wanted me to tell you about a new campaign from Carefree Ultra Protection (you can get a sample of this fine new product at that link, by the way) that is encouraging women to get their own fresh start through their Carefree Fresh Start Fund. Whether you’re seeking a fresh start for your education, your personal health and fitness, your style, that business you’ve always wanted to start or perhaps even your finances, Carefree wants to give you a hand.
To Begin with, the Carefree Fresh Start page features a free Fresh Start Guide in conjunction with TheFirst30Days.com where you can get some tips on how to turn a dream into reality. Secondly, you have the opportunity to apply for $3,000, $5,000, or $10,000 Fresh Start Fund of your own to get the financial backing you need to make your dreams come true. I have to admit that I’ve been a bit leery of such essay writing sorts of contests before. I mean have you ever known someone who has won that type of thing. Why yes, yes I have. Less than a month ago, Lady Chicken Lady reported that she had won ice cream for 100 people through an Edy’s giveaway that she read about on Queen of Free. Who knows, this just might be your lucky month, too. Not only do you receive the cash prize but you also get a 3 day/2 night trip to NYC to be awarded your prize. And finalists who do not win one of the top three prizes also will be awarded $1000. Surely it’s worth a shot if you’ve got a dream in your head. Why not give it a go?
Start with a fresh piece of paper (or a blank screen) and perhaps you’ll receive a fresh start of another variety. Make your day great. What about you? What do you do to get a fresh start or a new perspective on life? I don’t suggest the fetal position napping as your best bet to deal with reality. To really clear my head, I like to exercise. It gives me more energy and I recently heard that when you exercise at an aerobic pace 25% of your blood is in your brain! No wonder we can understand things better and the world seems clearer after I exercise. So if you need to, get a fresh start on your day today!
