REVIEW AND GIVEAWAY OF COMBAT ANT KILLING BAIT STRIPS





Now that Spring is here so are the Ants. I have seen big ones and tiny ones in my bathroom and my kitchen. The new Combat Ant Killing Bait Strips have the same killing power that is in the Gel version. I reviewed the gel last season and it worked very well but this is so much more convenient. The strips leave no mess and are easy to apply. I placed them under cabinets within 24 hrs the ant population was reduced. There was no funky odors and I felt safe using them around my cat. He was not attracted to the smell and left the strips alone. Combat also makes a roach killing strip if you are plagued by those ugly creatures.
So if you are infested by ants and cannot afford an exterminator then give the bait strips a try. You can buy them on Amazon.com, home improvement stores and supermarkets.

CONTESTS:


  1. Enter to win a package of your own Ant or Roach strips. See Rafflecopter for rules. The prize will be fulfilled by the sponsor. Contest ends on 5/5/13 @11:59Pm EST.
  2. Enter the Combat Sweepstakes and you could win $1000 in Visa Gift cards.

DEALING WITH CHILDREN'S REACTION TO VIOLENCE AND CRISIS BY MARY JO RAPINI

Dealing with Children's Reaction to Violence and Crisis


by Mary Jo Rapini, MEd, LPC
With the recent happenings in Boston and Texas, I am reminded of our "little ones." If you are a parent, your child monitors their reaction by watching yours. Here are a few suggestions to help you help your child.
  • 1.    Parents are a barometer for their children, and children are skilled with reading their parent's emotions. So, before you talk to your children, make sure you know how you feel about what happened, and if you are anxious or not ready to help your child feel secure, delay talking with them about it
  • 2.    Don't mention the trauma part to your children and don't assume what they are afraid of. Rather, ask them specifically so you won't introduce another possible fear. If they mention they are afraid that something bad may happen to them, validate that by saying it's natural to feel that way, but also tell them you are going to do everything you can to keep them safe.
  • 3.    Limit the news in your home regarding the tragedies. Children don't understand the replays and they may be at the level of thinking each time they view the incident that it is happening again. The visual parts as well as the audio accounts of the recent tragedies once seen and heard may create anxiety, nightmares, and depression in children.
  • 4.    As much as possible, stay on your routine at home. This will give your child stability and reduce anxiety.
  • 5.    As a family, draw cards, send letters, and/or bake cookies for the families or people in the community where the tragedies occurred, or for someone needing them in your own community. This helps your child see that there are more good people than bad.
  • 6.    This is an excellent time to set up an emergency plan in your own home. Go through what you each will do if there is an emergency. This empowers children and helps them feel more in control. Remind them of a time something happened and what they did to help. Also remind them of how proud you were of them.
  • 7.    Take extra time at night to read stories, watch movies, or say prayers. This helps kids feel safer and it is also a time when questions come up that parents can use to help understand how their child is processing the tragedies.
  • 8.    This is a good time to bring your spiritual beliefs to the forefront. Things such as having a mass said, lighting a candle, or planting a tree for the people who lost their lives is important. It helps your child see that no matter what happens people do care and they do remember. Spirituality is also important because it gives us strength beyond our human capacity.
  • 9.    Listen to your children.  Children's brains work differently than adults, and by careful listening you can better ascertain where your child is having a difficult time with the recent events.
  • 10.    Grieving with your child will help them heal. Children grieve much differently than adults. Their time frame isn't the same as ours. They may be playing and jumping around one minute, and sitting alone by a tree the next. Grieving in children isn't normal for adults to witness and we want to cheer them up. This is a time to acknowledge when they are sad and then brainstorm with them what they can do (with your help) to feel better. Always identify with trying to do something good with your child for others.
Parents should always answer questions and tell their children the truth. However, wait for the question and answer in simple ways that are age appropriate for your child. Grief takes time and if you are worried your child is not working through their grief, take them to their pediatrician and work with someone they suggest for emotional support. When bad things happen the greatest source of encouragement comes from mom and dad and family.

REVIEW OF THE KEURIG OFFICE PRO (B145) COMMERCIAL SINGLE CUP COFFEE MAKER


When ever I walk in to my local bank, I have the opportunity to use their Keurig machine. The coffee tastes great and I have always wanted one for home. So when I had the opportunity to review the Keurig OfficePRO model 145 offered by Staples, I was so happy. Let me tell you about the machine.
  • Choice of 3 cup sizes (6 oz., 8 oz. and 10 oz.)
  • Easy cleaning and refilling with removable 48 oz. water reservoir
  • Keurig commercial grade brewers generally brew about 10 times the volume of a typical home brewer
  • Auto-off turns brewer off after 2 hours
  • Heavy gauge materials for high volume use
  • Travel mug friendly
  • Drip tray is removable
  • MY K-CUP® is not compatible with the OfficePRO brewer
  • Included mix of different roasters and top selling varieties of coffee, tea and hot cocoa. 
  • The ability to drain the unit for storage.
My Thoughts:
 
The OfficePro is affordable and includes a 12 K-Cup sampler pack and easy to read instructions so setting up the machine was easy. Keurig is known for its unique and contemporary styling  that will fit in any office or kitchen and it looked great in my house. When I took it out of the box, it felt very sturdy, well made and was packed securely in the box. I was also sent a 18 pack of Tully's Hawaiian blend medium roast coffee to try.There are so many varieties of K-Cups to try so you will be sure to find your favorite at Staples.com.


It is much larger than a typical coffee maker but it fit well on my counter. Using the unit is very easy and all you have to do is pop in a K cup, close the lid, select your size cup and hit brew. The Office Pro is very loud and produces a vibration but it only lasts for approx forty seconds. So if you want to use the unit at home and do not want to wake up your family then another Keurig model will be better for you. My friend owns the B75 Model and it is quieter than this unit and has a larger reservoir. I tried the Hawaiian Blend on the 10 ounce setting and it tasted great every time. It was full bodied and not bitter tasting like some other coffees. 

If you want to store the unit for an extended period of time it has a great drain feature so you can remove the water from the internal heater tank and prevent mildew from growing in the tank. This feature is not available on the consumer models.

I have tried the unit 2 x day for two weeks now and I am very impressed with the unit except for the sound when it brews. There is a multiple use reusable filter (My K-Cup) that is available for all of the consumer models and is not available for the commercial models such as the OfficePRO. The OfficePRO ($129.99) is priced $50 less than the less noisy B75 model and produces a great cup of coffee.

REVIEW AND GIVEAWAY OF THE NEW SOFT SCRUB 4- IN - 1 TOTAL CARE BATHROOM CLEANER



Tired of that nasty ring in your toilet, then give Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care a try! I know that you have tried other brands of bowel rim hangers and found that they dissolved too quickly, did not stay in place and just did not work. The 4-in1 rim hanger did not move when flushed, has a great smell that is not over powering and kept my toilet cleaner than other brands.
the plastic cage keeps the product in place  and it is activated with each flush. I have used the toilet bowel cleaner for about 2 weeks now and I am impressed on how well it works. The toilet was cleaner and there was less of a toilet ring seen. The toilet bowel cleaner can be purchased at Walmart and costs less than $2.00.

CONTESTS:

  1. You could win $1000 and a years supply of Soft Scrub coupons in the Soft Scrub Brighter Bowl Sweepstakes.  
  2. Enter below to win a coupon to try the Soft Scrub Toilet Bowl Cleaner. Contest ends on 4/30/13 @ 11:59pm EST and open to USA/Can only.

WELCOME TO THE 2013 ULTIMATE BLOG PARTY



I am so happy that you stopped by for a visit. My name is Melissa and I have been blogging with my mom, Eileen since 2009. I originally started Books R Us to promote my book Ginger High. Although the book never became a bestseller, I have learned a lot about publishing and writing.

I have a passion for American Sign Language. I am presently attending a Community College college and I am planning to transfer to Gallaudet University in Washington DC to obtain my BA in American Sign Language Interpreting. I plan to continue writing and I hope to finish the sequel to Ginger High Soon.

Growing up my mom encouraged me to read as much as I could and boy did that pay off in school. When I am busy with schoolwork my mom runs the blog and keeps the posts active. We hope you enjoy Books R Us.

REVIEW AND GIVEAWAY OF VIVA LABs KRILL OIL (18+ ONLY)


 How many of you have been taking fish oil and complain about fish burps and breath? Then give Viva Labs Krill Oil a try. So you ask what is the difference between fish oil and Krill oil? Here are the benefits of Krill Oil:

There have been many studies on the benefits of Krill Oil and the Omega-3's and Astaxanthin found within are good for your health-
  • Protect your heart- Krill oil may reduce heart damaging inflammation and is more effective than fish oil in reducing LDL (bad cholesterol) and raises HDL(good cholesterol.)
  • Easier PMS- Most women may complain of PMS symptoms and taking Krill Oil has been know to reduce the symptoms of PMS.
  • Less Inflammation- Joint stiffness and inflammation was reduced in many people taking the Krill oil.
  • Brain Function- Do you need help remembering things? In a study by the University of California Krill oil helped in concentration and mental function
  • Easier to swallow capliques  that reduce the fish breath and burps and is smaller in size than most fish oil capsules.
  • The Krill oil is harvested from Antartica Krill that live below the ocean. It is guaranteed to be fresh and is shipped from the manufacturer the day that you order it.
 My Thoughts:

I have difficulty swallowing large pills an the capliques are perfect in size. No more fish breath for me. I noticed a change in my joint function and I was only taking the product for a month. I usually have pain in my shoulders and that has improved and I am able to move easier. I spent some time on the internet comparing products and I found that the Everest Nutrition Krill Oil contained more Omega-3's than many of the leading brands. So would you like to try the product for yourself? Enter my contest.

CONTEST:

Enter to win a months supply of Krill Oil: See Rafflecopter for rules- Ages 18+. Contest ends on 4/13/13 @ 11:59 PM EST.

REVIEW OF DEAD MONEY BY STEVE O'BRIEN


Title: Dead Money
Author:
Steve O'Brien
Publisher:
A&N Publishing
Publication Date:
Jan 10, 2013.
Purchase Book: Amazon, Barnes & Noble.


About The Book:

You Can't Stop It.

The stranger's menacing, dismissive laughter echoed in attorney Dan Morgan s head. In the heart of thoroughbred country--Churchill Downs--a major con was about to be pulled. Despite Dan's efforts, his filly, Aly Dancer, was somehow part of the scheme.

You Can't Stop It.

Dan's dream as a thoroughbred owner was to run in a Grade I race a televised stakes race. That opportunity had finally appeared. So far it had only resulted in threats, violence and death. 

You Can't Stop It.

What was the scam? Who was involved? Who could he turn to? Post time was nearing. The man's sinister voice would not leave him.

You Can't Stop It.


About the Author:

Steve O'Brien is the author of four novels: Elijah's Coin, Bullet Work, Redemption Day, and Dead Money. Elijah's Coin has been added to the reading curriculum in multiple secondary schools throughout the US and has been incorporated in a university ethics course. The e-book version of Redemption Day was an Amazon.com Bestseller. Steve is a graduate of the University of Nebraska and George Washington University Law School. He lives in Washington, DC.


My Thoughts:

This is a fantastic murder mystery and a sequel to Bullet Work. I read the book rather quickly and learned some things about horse racing that I was unaware of. The  book was full of twists and turns that I never saw coming. There was romance,evil, gangsters, believable characters and of course horses. This was one of the best books that I have read so far this year. The ending was unexpected and opens up the door to a sequel. I hope that Mr. O'Brien continues to write in the future. If you love horse racing and mystery novels this is the book for you.
