Just Pass Me By

So where I am I staying that I will not stay at again, the Day’s Inn in Worthington Minnesota, on Hwy 59.
I am a little disappointed, I honestly have to say that I have never enjoyed my stay at a Day’s INN. Don’t get me wrong the rooms where clean, and housekeeping did a great job at it. But Customer service I would rate a 1 on a scale of 1 to 10. I am not happy at all with their call center or hotel customer service. This was the case the last time I stayed at a days inn. I will never stay here again. So why am I annoyed, okay I
Online Schools degree in Busines management and you’d think these people would have my text book knowledge down pat. They do not.
First it started with customer service to get a room, for my husband and dad and a room for me. Well I explained to the guy that dad was 88 years old and had a mental health dog that would be staying in a room. This was fine. No problem. The problem came when it was time to finalize the reservation, they deducted the money out of my account right away and did not tell me it would be withdrawn immediately. Fine I have the money in my account it would have been nice to know this so I could have transferred money over form saving to cover, checks if any came through which I had one outstanding. It didn’t go through so I was fine, plus I asked a question about when it would go through my account. I am glad I did this had I not I would have overdrafted my account. Okay fine we got the rooms 2 weeks in advance.
Now we get to the hotel last night, we find out there a 10$ pet fee, okay no big deal. I forgot Dad’s papers for the dog, and Shadow stayed with me. My husband and my rooms where spread far apart. Okay I have the dog I am fine, if someone miss with me she will make nose.
The problem with my room is I asked for non-smoking and expressed to the call center that I have a smoke allergy and it’s important I not be in smoking or near it. Well they placed me right next to a chain smoker, so my breathing has gotten worst. I came here with a start of a allergy attack and now I am in a full blown allergy attack. I can barely talk.
They have deactivated my card, just about every time I leave the room. I am frustrated and stressed by this because I fight to get back in my room and have to go to the office. The same happened to my husband today they deactivated his card to his and dad room. So I am just simply disappointed in the quality of service here. I am actually looking forward to go back home, even though i really enjoy my husband sister and his bio mom who i meet today.
On a positive note, I will say again the room was clean, and I have no troubles with the room

Now since we got a tv my husband and I seem to really like, they are coming out with
projector reviewsfor the same thing. Well I think it’s great they have this technology started but I think I would rather stick with my tv. In school and at my congration they use projectors and I always see on most of them time to change the
Projector filters, and those are probably pretty easy to replace but they seem to need replacing often. Maybe people just don’t change them at all until it stops working which isn’t good because projectors are expensive. I do like that most of them come with
Projector remotes which makes it a lot easier to use and quicker to turn them on. Most places put them on the ceiling so you have to have a remote. Question is where would it go in the apartment and what kind of projector cleanerwould I need to use we got one. I am sorry the lens needs to be cleaned too.

To be honest, I am not sure how to solve my problem. I found out the degree I wanted at school has been postponed and they do not know for how long. So now I have 4 options. 1. give up and say to much trouble for school. 2 take the GER testing, and find another graduate program 3. Convince hubby it would be good to move closer to the school or extension campus with the degree program,. 4 Wait until the program comes and figure out how in the world, I will pay off student loans while working part time and care taking for dad.

Recently someone asked me to look at the gmat prep, I wonder if maybe they will have something more for prep. The nice thing about this is I could study when and where I want. Now my worry about taking the GER test is because I am a horrible tester and I worry this could potentially disqualify me for a master program. So this seems like a program that might help with the preparing for testing. GMAT would help me if I wanted management masters, but since i am going into counseling it probably would do me little good. Business management is important I have the undergrad degree in that, but shoot if I am going to get a master in Business management I would be able to remain and not think about now what am I going to do.

They claim you can get up to 50% of your money back, but I am not sure. It seems like a good program to get a person ready for Management testing..

Well, I am not a political person although this post will sound fairly political. I am not very happy with the IRS grant it part of it is my husband fault, but seriously more there fault then his. I would like to know how they expect my husband to provide for his family, when they take away his paycheck. So how in the heck do they expect him to pay rent and buy food with just 100 bucks I am ticked off at that. He has told them many times he is financially not able to, he the primary person to cover everything because his wife is a full-time student and helps care for his aging father, plus my husband is studying to go into the ministry and works for our congregation. Now I am not complaining at what Rabbi paying my husband because shoot it’s enough to live off of for the most, and well I work part time and can help with some of the utilities and dad helps too. So we have been making our ends meet, not easy grant it but I think it will improve after I get my masters.
I am sorry but I do not think the government or any branch of the government should have the right to get into peoples checking accounts with out their permision and the government responsiblity to protect it’s people not harm them by taking away their money which they need for surviving.
We would have been ***** if it had not been for our Rabbi giving us a loan to take care of rent but hey he can’t do that every month. I am sorry but this is wrong, it not right. My husband is going into a career which well frankly don’t pay you enough to do anything, other then pay your daily expenses. I am fine with that, but I am not fine with the IRS taking money which my husband needed.
When I get a job after my Masters is done I will need to get insurance for the family and get both me and him term life insurance rates, because him in the minstry means I need to cover some of it.
My husband contacted tax masters and I guess they feel they can help him for $2000 dollars in payments, I am not sure how we will do that. We might need to figure out a way to keep hubby money so the IRS can’t take anymore from him, because we can’t make it with half his income, shoot we barely make it with his income. Grant it I guess our date nights are going to be gone for a few months, because we won’t be able to afford to go out, unless I pay and I need to save money up for a car. So I have to keep my budget very tight. My van about to die, so I have to do something, before I can’t get back and forth to work. But I guess if we need the money I will sacrifice the savings for meeting the needs of the family.
I know they can’t go after me because I am a innocent spouse but now we need to get him off the joint account so we don’t lose dad’s money. Don’t get me start on what I think of the health care plan of our lovely democratic government, I am sorry but they shouldn’t get to decide who gets to have life prolonged and who doesn’t. Their health plan is not wise, and I think we be better off staying with private insurance.

I was wandering on line and misspelt what I was looking for, for class. I am not sure why I stayed but I did. There are so many products out there for wieght lose or get good sleep, or get more engry. I landed on the Stemulite Website. It seems some well known sports players use this supplement and swear by it.
One good thing I found on there site is they have a nutrition specialist, you can contact with question. Now I am not saying don’t talk to your primary doctor but this seems to be responsible of them. It’s good they would have someone there to answer questions of prospective customers.
They have a meal replacement products, products which are supposed to help with getting into deep REM sleep and we all know what a lack of REM sleep can do. I like their product outline because it is all natural, and they do not using refined sugars according to their site. Unfortintely I wasn’t able to find ingredents for their products, but they claim all products are natural which meand they are probably not using fake sugars neither.
I think I might contact my doctor and talk to her about trying their daily vitiman. I started losing weight and probably don’t want to start taking something to help me lose it yet, but I don’t get enough nutrition lately with how busy I been.

Lately I been wondering what my end goal will be. I know I either want to do couselling or socail work of some type of program. Right now I am doing business mangagement. Lately I been debating what is the end goal. I could do drug rehab

at a few centers, but I know from expereince with my family it is very difficult. I watch my mom struggle with addition and my older sister, for some people they need the rehab for others like my mom they are able to quit on their own when they see just how bad things really are. Grant it, mom waited until she lost her rights to her children but that her mistake and well I forgave her a long time ago from and I am proud of her for being sober now my sister was another story is needed help. It is important if you have a problem with addition to get help expecailly if you can’t leave it behind. Lately my sister and I have been worried about mom because she starting to hang out with the wrong crowd but sis is moving near so she’ll helpfull be able to help mom stay on straight and narrow.

I have been going to the UOP for several months and close to be going with my

degree program, I need to determine if I want to do family counseling throw them or go somewhere else and get a degree in something else. I really like the UOP so I rather stay there, but the question is does their degrees in my State for masters fit my need.

I was asked by someone to look at St. Joseph University online management certificate program, so because I am a good friend, off I went to look at another college site. So my opinions even though I will try to be fair might be a little bases because I love my current college. St. Joseph University offers many programs which relate to different types of management including project management, they do have PMP exam preparation so this might be a good thing for students who need that. The nice thing about their site it shows you what you could how you could increase your income with their certificates. I don’t even think my college has that so that a unique strategy, trying to encourage people by showing them how their program might change their income. I have to say I am tempted to look at their mental health counseling. Since I am about to be done with my lower degree and haven’t decided where to complete my Master at but I am not sure they have that, but a certificate might help me.
On the website they have projected growth of several different career like construction, mental health, sales, computer information system managers. They show projected growth for the next 8 years on most of these fields and it seems like all the certificates they are offering will have some growth. It’s surprising they project teacher assistance only growing 7 to 13 %, I would have guess higher since so many babies are being born and their been like a huge growth in developmental problems.
I guess the next question I would ask is what is their accreditation if any, and how much does it cost, because I like their programs.

You know I could really use a vacation. Everything that has been going on has me feeling a little stressed as to how will I accomplish everything. Since dad moved in a lot of things have change, now I am not just cleaning up after my husband but also his dad and taking care of other basic needs dad has.
So I know soon I will really be needing a vacation. In the past I have talked about Bransonas a possible vacation spot. They have family options and couple options. I would look at a couple of options, to get me and hubby gone for a couple days would be great. If we wanted we could go with the Gold Package which is only 455$ it would come with 3 days and 2 nights stay and then it would have a pierce Arrow and Mickey Gilley adult tickets for hubby and I to enjoy.
If that package wouldn’t work we could look at the Platinum Package for 457$ which is 3 days and 2 nights Grand Oaks with 2 adult tickets to Grand Jubilee, and a gift certificate to either Red Lobster or Olive Garden, and coupon book with a 50$ Tanger outlet shopping certificate. Who could ask for more.
There are a couple of Attractions I am interested in one is The Titanic Museum, this could be a fun little experience to look at it, and learn more about it. Then there is the Cave and Caverns which sound fun to me I have always been interested in caves.
Maybe Branson will be a great place for a long needed vacation been needing one for years.

I got a new entertainment center this weekend. It was great on the showroom floor and didn’t look hard to assemble. We got it at Ikea, and brought it home to build it our selves. It weighted 99 pounds and was the black Tobo entertainment stand. It has 2 glass shelves and 2 doors.
I took everything out and put it in an order, it took me about 3 hours to get this completely together, but I also tore apart our old one which was about to fall apart. It took me quite awhile to get this one built. Almost everything I have gotten from Ikea are challenging to put together. The direction aren’t always clear and there are no stickers on the pieces, which are to be put together so sometimes it’s challenging to know what goes where. I have one of the doors stuck and haven’t figured out how to solve that problem yet, no matter how hard I tugged it didn’t move. I will have to try to figure it out with out taking it all apart of get to it. Why can’t they make it easier and label things like a, b, c and so on or 1, 2, 3 or so on just or even top, bottom, left side, middle and right side, it would help if it was marked some how and I didn’t have to try to figure out a picture which isn’t always clear.
Don’t get me wrong I am very happy with the Entertainment stand and it looks great in the Apartment. It matches the Kitchen table we got, but doesn’t exactly match the coffee table because that’s white, so I guess it really does match okay.
My husband and I looked at several Tv stands and entertainment center. We saw one we liked a little more but our Tv weighed a little to much, but we still had 2 that we really liked alot. I wish they had a couple of Peerless to look at.
We also ended up getting a CD/DVD holder that holds up to 88 DVD’s which is something we needed since I got raid of the old one.
I am happy with it, and it looks great here. It adds something very nice into the living room, that wasn’t their before. This is a nice sturdy piece.

It is almost summer time for vacation for many schools unless they are an all year around school, then I am not sure what their schedule is for vacations. I know many families during the summer like to take their children on educational trips well I have an idea. Branson, it’s right in the heart of the United States, they have seven packages price ranging from $423.00 to $925.00, the 925.00 is the family package. Don’t want to do a package because you don’t think it would give you enough freedom there are plenty of great lodging options.
Lodging options ranges from Hotels, condos and luxurious cabins. Many of these have the comforts of home including internet so you can send messages to work if you really needed to. There a few museums the museum which interested me most was the Titanic Museum.
The Titanic Museum is a half scale replica of the original ship, which was not supposed to sink but did sink. There is a memorial there of the people who lost their lives. This may be a good way to experience history, which are hands on learning in a sense. History for children and adults is fun when they can experience history and learn about the people who where affected by what happened. This would probably be better then reading a book or watching a movie if your like me and have a hard time watching movies that are longer then 2 ½ hours. I think this will probably be one of the stops my husband and I make if we go to Branson on a vacation. I think hubby and I would be very interested.
There are many attractions they have several caves and caverns around them, caves are always fun. I have been on a couple of cave tours and have learned things. One of the most interesting lesson was that sound in a cave doesn’t always come from where it seems to come from. My little nephew enjoyed the cave tour we brought him on last summer. There are also several theme parks in the area for white water and miniature golf.
