Fun and Free Places to go in Houston!!






    
     Before our van Chevy was fixed we were living in a room planning what we would do when we finally got the funding to do it. Everything led up to fixing the van and traveling, but before we got moving I wanted to see what Houston had to offer. What could we do here that wouldn't cost much and still be fun? I went to work googling and found out that the museums are free on Thursday. So we planned our day and hopped on Metro! We ended up going to the Museum of Natural Science first since it was closing at 5, there we got a chance to see the dinosaurs and a lot of other fun things and facts. Once it closed we went to the Children's Museum, where the kids got to explore a lot of things like the first telephone and Gullah Gullah Island. Overall money spent 2.00 for the bus ride. We brought our own food and had a picnic at the museum. It was in all, a great time. Here are some pics for your enjoyment.

Why We Should Find Alternative Ways of Living to Avoid Eviction & Homelessness

                   It was a sunny day in June when we found out our landlord wouldn't be renewing our lease, the day was going great, I made a couple of sales, business wasn't great but it was paying bills. I was talking to my husband in "the shop" (the tiny home in the backyard that turned out to be the perfect workspace) about the rodent problem that we were experiencing when my oldest son came in with the mail. There it was, a notice that our landlord wouldn't be renewing our lease. The talk of rodents went elsewhere, we immediately went into survival mode thinking and planning what would be our next move. We were starting over with the house, at the top of our budget at 1400 dollars a month plus utilities.  The duplex we lived in before the house was great for a Sunnyside Duplex,. The landlord kept it up, but there was a shootout there, and that raised concerns with my husband and I, which caused us to look for another place to live. So we found thou house wit

The Art of Bouncing Back: Steps to Pick up the Pieces and Start Again

       B ouncing back, picking up the pieces, picking up yourself, starting over, whatever you want to call it requires a whole lot of patience and perseverance. When we fall, man, we tend to fall hard some of us have a hard time getting back up, some of us need a boost or some kind of motivation to get out of the slump. Don't feel bad, we have all been through it. Falling on your face will surely make you feel like shit, but you got to get on up now! (in my Jodeci voice) the comeback is always phenomenal so don't trip. Find your Reason.      Shit happens in life, we got to be prepared for everything these days, but when we aren't prepared and shit just hits us back-to-back it throws us off track, well it is up to us to hop back on the saddle and ride till the wheels fall off, or the hooves, whatever. Just get the hell up and do something, find your reason, find a good reason to do it and do it for you. Give yourself time to feel bad, cry if you have to and let it all ou

Finding employment in Houston............

                It seems to be the hardest thing to do these days.....  with unemployment rates rising and companies  continuously laying off employees, people are becoming discouraged. The workforce is crowded, it's like future employees are fighting for jobs. Well with that said, I took the liberty to help find ways to make money and tips on how to find the right job for you. First off, we will look at some of the things that can possibly stop you from finding a good job, we will start with appearance. Overall appearance plays a big role in job-hunting, employers want to see their future employee in business professional attire, not in everyday street wear. When attending an interview men should be sure to be clean shaven, hair should be groomed, clothes should be cleaned, ironed, shirts tucked in, and belts if pants have loops. There should be no jewelry, unless it's a wedding band, earrings, necklaces, gold teeth, are prohibited and should not be worn to an interview.
