A Cheerful Swedish Home With a 'Tropical Scandinavia' Theme!

A few weeks back someone put in a request for something colourful on My Scandinavian Home - gaaaaah *laughs*. With spring firmly in the air and summer just around the corner I agreed that this was a great idea. The trouble was finding something! And then I came across Tropical Scandinavia. The cheerful Swedish brand designs fab rugs, cushion covers, blankets, jewellery and more bursting with bold colours and pattern! You can imagine my excitement when I also learned founders Emil and Johanna live just across town from me, near the hip neighbourhood of St Knut in Malmö. And they have a fabulous home. Just like their brand, the creative duo has decorated the living space with bold prints, topical patterns and colours that sing against a white-washed background. I reached out to find out more.

Where are you from?
Emil is originally from Helsingborg and Johanna is from a small village called Vomb (but spent part of her childhood living abroad in USA and Italy). We have lived in Malmö for many years now. Every year we try to escape the winter for a couple of months and go somewhere tropical to rest, gather energy and come up with new ideas.

Who lives in your home?
Emil (41), Johanna (31) and Viggo (4 months). Every now and again you'll find a dog here that we're babysitting. We love dogs!

What is your background?
Johanna has a background in graphic design and illustration (she studied in Copenhagen at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts) and Emil runs a movie production company but is also a painter (since forever!). We founded lifestyle / interior concept Tropical Scandinavia together a year ago.

Tell us more about your apartment
It was originally two apartments, now merged into one. We took down a wall when we bought it to turn it into a big open living space, we usually like to be all in the same room!

What inspired your tropical theme?
Every year, as summer gets closer, a tropical trend kicks in. But we love the tropics and lots of colour all year round! So, we thought it was a shame that it usually only lasts one season. That's where the idea of Tropical Scandinavia came from. It's also inspired by our travels of course! Most countries aren't nearly as afraid of using colour as Swedes! But to balance it out we do have a lot of white as well, which feels much needed during darker times.

Have you always been into bright colours?
Yes! But I think it really boomed when we started creating our home together and realised we really share a passion for bright colours and quirky things!

What is it about bright pops of colour and tropical motifs that you love?
Life constantly offers us so many choices, and we truly believe that it is possible to choose to live with an open heart, bright spirit and to make fun things! In some way, I think colour and a happy tropical theme symbolises that for us. It might sound a bit out there, but I really think it's true! Everything kind of blends together for us - life, work, interior, spiritual beliefs and love.

Have you got any tips for anyone who loves Scandinavian style but also wants to add colour?
Start with some details! Maybe you don't have to paint a whole room, start out with some colourful prints or a blanket. And don't think too much about everything matching, sometimes the odd things turn out to be the best!

Thank you so much Emil and Johanna!

This home put a great big smile on my face and a real spring in my step today. It's amazing what bright colours can do, don't you think?

My daughter Liv already has the Tropical Scandinavia two birds one cat print in her bedroom, and now we've got our eye on a blanket and a rug  - aren't they fabulous?!

I hope Emil and Johanna's home has inspired you as much as it has inspired me.

If you'd like to see a little more, check out their instagram feed @tropicalscandinavia or better still,  take a scroll through their wonderful online store - and turn your home into a Tropical Scandinavian haven!

A Beautiful Swedish Home With Touches of Sunny Yellow (& Soft Pinks and Browns)

Following on from yesterday's post about how to maximise your outdoor space - I thought this lovely Swedish home in Gothenburg might serve as perfect inspiration for how to bring the sunshine in - even on a rainy day! The colour: yellow! It might be obvious, but it's amazing what a lift the sunny yellow cushions and flowers give to the entire living space, don't you think? The golden tone works beautifully with earthy browns, pinks and cream too. So, why not pull up a chair, put your feet up and stay a while - there are lots more details to love too!

Do you have the colour yellow in your home?

Thinking my home needs some daffodils!

The tones in the bedroom look very like the ones I've used in mine! I'm thinking they've used the same wall colour (Blushing Peach by Jotun Lady) - one of my favourite tones of all time, it looks equally pretty morning, noon and night.

Is there anything that stood out to you about this home?

By the way - I've got such a lovely home tour lined up for tomorrow's post - it's full of warm pools of sunlight, a cat would be in his element! Don't forget to pop back to take a peek!

Sending sunshine and a stor kram (big hug) your way!

Cool Colour Ideas From The Home Of A Swedish Set Designer

Hump day (nope, still not used to that term!), calls for something that little extra special, don't you think? After all, we still have two whole days until the weekend and need something to dream about! Today 'special' comes in the form of the wonderful world of Swedish interior stylist and set designer Emma Wallmén. Emma, her fiancé Magnus and their two children Alba and Edith live in an apartment in Kärrtorp, Stockholm. I love the uniqueness of their home - from funky design chairs, cool lamps and handmade features to the fab use of colour. Think pink, green and sand hues applied to walls, curtains, furniture radiators and bed headboards. Not only does the colour create a wonderful thread throughout the home, it also helps to create an entirely personal living space! Welcome to Emma's world!

I haven't seen kitchen cabinets like these before, have you? The cabinet fronts and drawers are from Pickyliving (who make cool designer fronts for IKEA kitchens) - and Emma has applied valchromat to the fronts and worktop.

Check out the radiator which has been painted in Card Room Green by Farrow & Ball to match the bedroom. Such a lovely idea!

A kitchen nook is always a good idea in a small space, don't you think?

Emma has added a Flos Parentesi Suspension lamp* and a simple set of IKEA shelves to the corner of the kitchen - which is perfect for small, pretty items that deserve to be on display!

The sitting room walls have been painted in Cashmere by Jotun. But the real showstopper is the fabulous Etcetera armchair by Jan Ekselius. Incredible piece! I've got a feeling Alba and Edith fight over who gets to sit there (my girls certainly would!).

The bedroom wall and (hand built) shelving has been painted in soothing Card Room Green by Farrow & Ball while some has also been left in plain wood to emphasise the 'sleep zone'.

Wow, I'm feeling so inspired by this home - especially the use of colour and all the different lamps (look closely and you'll spot so many in all different shapes and sizes!).

Was there anything in particular that stood out to you about Emma's home?

Take a peek at more corners over at @emmawallmen.

Ha det fin!

7 Small Space Tricks To Learn From A Light-Filled Stockholm Family Home

Unless you're completely minted, you usually need to compromise somewhere on a property - whether that's location, size, outdoor space, aesthetics or layout. For this family in Stockholm, living in the hippest neighbourhood in town - South of Folkungagatan, Söderhamn (SoFo), an area buzzing with independent shops, quirky cafes and lively restaurants - meant compromising on living space. But despite measuring 44 m2 (473 f2)  - the occupants have made maximum use of every inch - carving out a kitchen, dining room, sitting room, master bedroom, children's room and even a library! So how do you create a charming family home in a small space? Here are 7 great tricks:

1. Use the height: In small spaces it's important to think vertically and use every inch. In this home, bookshelves have been mounted above the dining area creating a family dining space and library in one! And it looks super cosy too, don't you think?

2. Leave a little breathing space! The blank space between the dining table and chairs and the bookshelves makes the space feel less cluttered even though there's a lot going on.

3. Go wall to wall: built-in benches in dining rooms, kitchens and sitting rooms are perfect for small spaces since they help to maximise space, eke out a little extra seating and provide extra storage.

4. Let the light flow: small spaces can be starved of light - widening doorways between rooms helps natural light to flow into even the darkest of corners!

5. Use curtains for privacy: Sometimes there simply aren't enough bedrooms to accommodate every member of the family. In this lovely home, the living room doubles up as a master bedroom. A curtain helps to carve out a separate sleeping zone while still allowing the light to flow from the window.

6. Internal windows: The little kitchen in this Stockholm home wouldn't have received any natural light had it not been for the glass room divider. At night, a curtain can help to shield the children's bedroom from lighting (we all know how important it is not to wake the crazies!).

7. Create storage wherever you can: In this tiny bathroom, the tank top doubles up as storage and an extra freestanding unit has been installed for shampoo bottles, shower gel etc.

I had another look through the pictures to see if I could establish where they keep clothes - and there are two storage cupboards in the hallway (not featured) - I wonder if they've stashed items in other unseen places too, like under the bed?

Either way, there are so a many great ideas to steal from this home, don't you think?

Other small spaces providing great inspiration:

Is your home small? What do you find the hardest thing about living in a small space? Have you got any space-saving tips? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

I'm excited to be winding my way up to Stockholm by train today to visit the Stockholm Furniture Fair. This post has taken me way longer than usual to write as the snowy scenery flashing passed the train window is simply stunning! If you're curious to follow my journey / time in Stockholm I'll be sharing away on Instagram stories

Ha det fint!

Then And Now: An Iconic Swedish Home Six Years On!

One of the beauties of blogging over time (it's been eight years and counting!) - is that some homes pop up over and over again, each time revealing either drastic transformations or small tweaks. This is the third time this instantly recognisable Gothenburg maisonette has popped up in six years, and I'm happy to see it falls under the latter camp. Former owners Catarina Skoglund, husband Robert and daughter Stella left their mark with exposed brickwork, William Morris Wallpaper and fabulous tiles (among many other fabulous details) which I first featured here. They then sold it in 2016.  The new owners have made their own small mark while maintaining many of the original details that allow the architecture to shine.  Can you spot them?

I don't know why but I've always felt this house has an English air to it - could it be the narrower rooms, or perhaps the wallpaper? Either way, it always makes me feel really nostalgic!

How fabulous is this black radiator? I love that they've made a statement out of it.

Those blue stairs! A bold move that completely paid off. Would you dare to paint your stairs in a different shade?

I love seeing the contrasting walls, it gives the home a lovely relaxed vibe. Look out for more and more contrast in living spaces throughout 2020!

I couldn't think of a more lovely spot to sit and work! Although the cane daybed would always be calling me...

It looks like a mid-century piece which has been given a new lease of life with new legs (potentially?) and a striped linen mattress cover (find similar linen here*). Please do give me a shout in the comment section below if you know anything more about this daybed - I'm curious!

Spotted after several hours looking at the pictures: the pipe in the corner has been disguised using a tube wrapped in the same wallpaper as the wall behind.

I love how the floor is more of a grey tone than white. I've done something similar in my bedroom using 'strong white' by Farrow & Ball which is actually a very pale grey (beats me why they gave it such a misleading name!).

What a beautiful home. I loved in 2014 and I love it now.

I can't wait to see what the next owners do, can you?

It's for sale here - just saying!

Shall we take a look at a few more homes with William Morris wallpaper and textiles? Here are a few of my favourites:

Oh, and curious to see what Catarina did with her next home? Check out her free-spirited family home on a Swedish island, it's so beautiful!

Talk about free spirit. Can I let you in on a secret? I haven't made it into the studio yet. In fact, I'm not even dressed. Talk about breaking every rule in the 'how to successfully work for yourself' book. I have two say though, it feels great!

Have a fabulous start to the week friends!

Many homeowners don’t consider outdoor home improvements during the cold seasons, but it’s actually the perfect time to start researching your deck options and making a basic plan for your upgrade. Don’t spend another year missing out on the fun that can be had on a new or updated deck and consider these deck trends and features for 2020:

deck features

Bring the Living Room Outside

Your home is a big investment, and that includes your backyard. If you’re not using your outdoor living space as much as possible, are you truly getting your money’s worth? The living room is one of the most popular spaces inside a home, so why not bring similar functionality outdoors? Consider your family members’ favorite leisure activities along with these popular deck features to make your outdoor space feel as fun and comfortable as your indoor space:

  • TVs for enjoying anything from the nightly news to the big game.
  • A paint or color scheme that matches your home’s interior.
  • Comfortable furniture to relax, nap, or enjoy a good book on.
  • Outdoor-friendly playtime mats so the kids can have fun without risking any splinters (or staining the deck with colorful art supplies!)
  • A mini-bar or snacking area for outdoor indulging.

Make Your Space More Private

Is lack of privacy on your property keeping you from spending quality time outside? There are plenty of ways to make your new deck a more private and intimate outdoor living space. If you’re looking for more complete privacy, you can screen-in your deck space and add rolling shades that keep out harsh sunlight, rain, and the wandering eyes of your neighbors. Just want to make your space feel a bit more intimate? Adding a pergola, tall plants, or a trellis with vines to your deck can all help to give you the privacy you desire and give your deck a lively, more personalized feel.

Illuminate Nighttime Gatherings

Enjoying the summer sun on your deck is a feeling like no other, but don’t forget that nighttime gatherings can be just as pleasant. With the right lighting, you can give your deck the right ambiance for any occasion. Some trending deck lighting features to consider include:

  • Floor lanterns for deck corners and staircases
  • Hanging string lights or Edison bulbs
  • Built-in floor lighting
  • Spotlights to highlight plants and décor
  • Downlights anchored to walls or eaves
  • Baluster lights

President’s Message

We are coming into a very busy and exciting fall season of NAMI.  Since the NAMI State Convention will be held here in Wichita at Wichita State University, October 17 and 18, we encourage all members and friends of NAMI Wichita to take advantage of the close proximity and come!  The theme is:  Diversity: Mental Health for All.

We have at least two of our members registered to go to the NAMI National Convention, which is in Washington, D.C. this year.  The theme is: Advocates for Change: From Dialogue to Action.  We always look forward to reports from our NAMI Wichita representatives to the National Convention upon their return. The convention was moved from summer to September this election year and will give NAMI a chance to have their voice heard in the capital prior to the elections.

I am also excited to report that we have three classes scheduled for fall:  Family to Family, for family members of those who live with a mental illness; Peer to Peer, for members who live with a mental illness; and NAMI Basics, for family members who have a younger child still in school who lives with a mental illness.  Check further in this newsletter for specifics on those classes.

Keep coming to Ask the Doctor, the Family Support group and the Connections group, held the third Tuesday of every month.  Our next one will be August 19 at 6:00.  That is where we really connect with one another, and give each other encouragement and hope.  Hope to see you soon.

Learn How To Ask For Sales Referrals

Sales professionals work too hard. Stop selling!

Let your customers sell for you through sales referrals. But first you need to learn how and when to ask.

With a referral, there is instant trust and your selling cycle time is reduced. The time it takes the referral to buy is usually much less than any other lead source. What this really means is less hassle and more sales.

You can ask anyone for a sales referral. In the Business to Business world, that usually means clients and prospects. Clients are the best referral source because they know you and they know your products or services. Never miss a chance to ask a happy client for a referral, and a testimonial letter while you are at it.

You can also ask prospects. Suppose you call a prospect only to discover that your product or service doesn’t match a need.

You can still ask for a sales referral at the end of your call. What’s the worst that can happen? They say “no.” No big deal. Move on. But sometimes, just sometimes, they provide you with a name. And that’s a great start.

Ask for sales referrals at the end of your visit or contact. AFTER you have completed your primary objective. Sales referrals seem easy enough but there is a bit finesse required.

Here’s how NOT to ask for a referral:

“Jim, do you know of anyone who might be interested in my services?”
This is NOT the recommended method because it is far too easy for your customer or prospect to say, “Ahh…no.”

The ‘no’ that they give you is often reflexive in nature; an automatic response to a closed ended question. In other words, they respond negatively out of habit. You could be missing tons of opportunities.

The BETTER way to ask for the sales referral is this:

“Sandy, can you give me a name or two of someone you know who might be interested in these types of products?”The difference is subtle but significant. By asking for a “name”, your client has to THINK about names. It is not quite as easy to give you a dismissive “no.” Usually, they tend to do a mental scan of friends and associates. This scanning pause helps reduce the automatic, reflexive ‘no’ response.

Of course, they can and sometimes will, say “no.” But by asking for a name you increase your odds and improve the chance for success. It is as simple as the ABC, 123 Sales Results System found in the book Up Your Bottom Line.

Oh, one other point – sales referrals demonstrate good behavior. Make sure that those giving you referrals also get rewarded. Remember, any behavior that gets recognized or rewarded gets repeated. Ask about our referral reward program, and let me know what yours is so that I too can help you get more business.

Kennedy visits US-Mexico border

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) visited the U.S.-Mexico border to witness the effects that the Biden administration’s reckless immigration policies are having on America and on vulnerable women and children at the hands of cartels and human traffickers.

Videos from the trip are available at end of story:

I’m in southern Texas, Rio Grande Valley, the border is about a mile away—maybe a half a mile. What you see behind me, these children and these mothers and fathers and relatives, is a direct result of President Biden’s policies. President Biden adopted a policy that the smugglers take advantage of—that if you come with the child, who’s under six years of age, and you get here, you’re released into our country.

“The smugglers all know this. And you can see all the young children, all under the age of six, all of these families paid money to a smuggler to get them here. Many of them were abused or violated or hurt on their way here.

“But this is a direct result of President Biden’s policies, and it makes no sense. We need an immigration system that looks like somebody designed it on purpose, and this is not that. I mean it breaks your heart, and all of these people here have been used, and President Biden has allowed them to be used.”

“We’re on the edge of the Rio Grande. Right across is Mexico. The lights you see there are smugglers bringing in families and children. They know the law. They know the change in President Biden’s policies. They know that if the child is six-years-old or younger, they will be released into the United States, and they will become part of the darkness in our country. They’ll go underground, and you’re not going to stop this as long as we practice catch-and-release.

“If we did not release people from Mexico and the 54 other countries that came in last month—all these folks are not just from Mexico and the Northern Triangle countries; people from 54 countries came through—and they know if they bring a child six or under that they are released in the United States.

“And as long as the President Biden practices catch (temporarily)-and-release, then the smugglers are just going to keep doing it, because they’re making a fortune. I mean, you can hear them. We are literally talking to them, and, as soon as we leave, they’ll put the kids and the family members on the boat. They’ll come here. They’ll go up this trail. They’ll be processed, and then they’ll be released into the country.

“And it’s not just, once again, it’s not just Central American countries and Northern Triangle countries and people from Mexico. Fifty-six nationalities were represented, including the Middle East.”

“Behind me is the border wall, which President Biden stopped construction on. I’m not sure there are words in English to describe what my Senate colleagues and I have seen in the last day-and-a-half. Thousands and thousands of people flooding into our country, virtually unimpeded. Either President Biden believes in open borders, or the people he’s put in charge of his border policy are not qualified to manage a food truck.

“President Biden needs to come down here. He needs to put a stop to this. What you allow is what will continue. This isn’t good for the people coming in, and it’s not good for the American people.

“If he doesn’t do this, President Biden is going to become known very quickly, if not already, as America’s illegal immigration president.”

“We’re meeting heroes here tonight. These men and women that are trying to keep the border secure, their names aren’t famous, but their virtues are: sacrifice, hard work, patriotism, long hours. And that’s what we’re here for, is to say a heartfelt ‘thank you’ to them and also to their families. They all sacrifice a lot. God bless every one of them.”

In addition, links to each video (on YouTube) and to the senator’s legislation to combat this crisis and keep Americans safe are available in this press release on his website (one stop shop!):

Kennedy’s immigration legislation:

Thursday, Kennedy introduced several bills to make dangerous aliens deportable and empower immigration courts, including the Empowering Immigration Courts Act, the Terrorist Deportation Act, the Criminal Alien Gang Member Removal Act and the Criminal Alien Removal Clarification Act.

The Terrorist Deportation Act would make any immigrant identified in the terrorist screening database, with the exception of permanent residents, deportable.

The Criminal Alien Gang Member Removal Act would make any immigrant who is a member of a criminal gang or has participated in gang activities deportable.

The Criminal Alien Removal Clarification Act would make any immigrant who has committed a felony or two misdemeanors deportable. Current law only includes certain felonies, such as aggravated felonies, and other specific crimes.

The Empowering Immigration Courts Act would authorize immigration judges to impose a fine for contempt of court that is the same amount, $1,000, as the fine written in the criminal code.

Kennedy also introduced the Ending Sanctuary Cities Act, which would give legal protections to local law enforcement officers who cooperate with federal officials. It would also withhold federal financial assistance from sanctuary cities that refuse to follow federal law.

Selection And Maintenance Of Standing Desk

Selection criteria

A good Standing Desk should not only consider the space for information products, but also have enough space for horizontal and vertical lines to avoid line exposure. It should also be noted that high-voltage power supply and information lines need to be isolated so as to avoid data leakage due to magnetic field interference. The front edge of the tables should be designed with a smooth beveled edge or a quarter circle, so as to avoid the disadvantage of the traditional right angle design which will oppress the building of communication platform between architects and architects both indoors and outdoors, realize the online working community of the industry, and guide the real estate industry to develop elbow blood vessels. Desk design has reached the point of thinking and extension. Employees do not necessarily have to sit at the desk. Many people need to stand up to build an indoor and outdoor communication platform between architects and architects, realize the online working community of the industry, and realize the construction industry to guide the development of the real estate industry, such as full-time inquiry, mapping and other work, of course. A higher desktop is required. In addition, the material is no longer limited to steel. The addition of various materials, such as reinforced glass, leather, wood and aluminum alloy, makes the Standing Desk more changeable and more lively.

Reminds everybody that the place of the desk should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Frequent sunshine will fade the paint film of furniture. Metal fittings are easily oxidized and deteriorated. Wood is easy to be crisp. In summer, it's better to use curtains to protect furniture from the sun. Finally, it is necessary to maintain indoor humidity and not let furniture get wet. In spring and autumn, humidifiers should be used for a limited period of time to prevent damage to furniture due to excessive humidity, such as wood decay, metal rust, bonding parts easy to break away from glue, etc. Maintenance knowledge of various office furniture:

1. Maintenance of Steel Furniture

Solid and durable steel office furniture is the most common in the office, especially ideal cabinets and other products, is an indispensable collection tool in the office. Steel office furniture appears in the external part, its maintenance can use soft cloth wipe, but avoid rough, organic solvents (such as turpentine, degreasing oil) or wet cloth wipe, these are the main causes of scars, rust.

2. Maintenance of Wooden Furniture

The greatest advantage of natural wood furniture products is natural wood grain and varied natural color. Because natural wood is a breathing organism, it must be placed in a suitable temperature and humidity environment, and at the same time, beverages, chemicals or overheated objects should be avoided from being placed on the surface to avoid damaging the natural color of the wood surface. If the material is made of durable plate, when there is more dirt, the diluted neutral detergent can be used to wipe with warm water first, then with clean water, remember to wipe away the residual water stains with a soft dry cloth, and then use maintenance wax to polish, even if a great success has been achieved. Only by paying attention to daily cleaning and maintenance can wooden furniture last forever.

3. Maintenance of Cloth Furniture

The cloth most commonly used in office chairs and sofas, its comfortable touch and rich colors, so that the expression of traditional furniture is more diverse. Common maintenance methods: when stained with dust, sand and other dry dirt, as long as gently patted or cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, as for granulated sand, you can use a brush to brush inward, but not hard brush, in order to avoid damage to the cloth surface. If you get drinks or juices, you can first absorb water with a towel, then use warm water to dissolve neutral detergent to wipe, then use a clean soft cloth to dry, and finally dry at low temperature.

4. Maintenance of Leather Furniture

Leather has good heat resistance, moisture resistance, ventilation and other characteristics, coupled with the fact that the natural texture of the dermis is not directional, both flat and hanging show uniform stretchability; furthermore, the dyeing of the dermis is not easy to fade, and it has elegant color, excellent touch and beautiful appearance, so it has been deeply loved by consumers. How to maintain the attractive appearance of leather products? Cleaning is the key. General maintenance only needs to use clean and soft cloth to gently wipe, if you want to clean up the dirt generated by long-term use, Shenzhen office furniture company tells you the most ideal way is: first, please use warm water diluted neutral detergent (1% - 3%) first wipe, then screw dry water to wipe the cleaning liquid, and finally dry cloth. Brighten it, then wipe it evenly with proper amount of leather maintenance agent after drying.

Beloved Hale Theatre Community,

Thank you so much for this year.  It was difficult.  We all say that, because we are together in its trials and tests.

A large looming question for me this year has been, “Can we still tell stories that matter amidst such barriers and broken systems?”  The answer…Hale yes, we can.

We are strong and smart and kind when we are together.  Thank you for huddling together this year. (I mean this figuratively, of course, because literally huddling together would have been the antithesis of what would have been good for us………….too soon?)

Thank you for your support, for your creativity, for your ingenuity, for your passion, for your interest in storytelling.

Next year will be a different year, as all years are.  Let us remember the lessons we learned this year and carry them forward as we once again flex our sense of community and belonging in the coming year.  Community…we got this.  Let us continue to tell stories that matter…together.

12 Months Of Travel! Destination 1 & 2: Savannah & Myrtle Beach #Wanderlust

Happy Travel Day! I recently chatted with a great friend, Daniell Rainy and she sent me a picture of her intention box and it got me thinking. I have been creating a vision board for the past eight years. However, on last year I decided to start a vision journal in conjunction with my vision board. However, when Daniell Rainy told me about the intention box I decided to grab an old pickle jar that I had been using for a bank to save vacation spending money and wrap it in tissue paper in my favorite color pink and use it as my intention jar. Special thanks to Stacey AKA TheSistahChick for my amazing Paris journal.

20141226_220039The day after Christmas I wrote one intention and added it to the jar. The intention read “In 2015 I will travel somewhere different every month”. I AM a firm believer that your words create power. In exactly two days after adding my intention I found myself and the kids on the road to Savannah and although I said 2015 what better way to kick off one of my 2015 intentions and the New Year than by traveling! I packed the boys and I a small bag and we headed out to hit the road. Our first destination was Savannah, GA where we stayed for a few hours. Keep in mind that I’m a native of Savannah so there isn’t a place that I haven’t visited over the years. We had lunch with my sister and mom and within a few hours we were loading up the truck and setting off for our next destination which was unknown at that moment. That’s the beauty of traveling, YOUR DESTINATION IS SOMETIMES UNKNOWN!

Savannah, GA
Savannah, GA

Upon traveling for a few hours we were more than happy to make a quick pit stop in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Myrtle Beach is a beautiful place to visit and although its been a few years since my last visit, it makes for a great getaway. I would suggest the warmer months if you have your mind-set on hitting the beach which we may not see this visit because it’s an overcast and we’ve been experiencing drizzling rains during our trips. The kids and I have visited before but unfortunately they were probably too young to truly appreciate the trip. As a Mom and lover of  traveling I have made it my business to ensure that I take them to all of the destinations that they visited as a baby or toddler so that they can truly appreciate traveling now that they’re older. It’s funny because I told them to pack a bag because we were taking a road trip and automatically they were excited about the road trip. They immediately  jumped up to grab a few outfits and rushed off to the car.  Hey that’s what happens when your kids are wanderlust too.

Our adventure doesn’t stop here. You will have to stay tuned to see where we end up on our next destination!

XOXO Turkesha

  1. My family and I love traveling and hoping that this year we’ll travel some more again. I won’t be able to do it every month though. I look forward to seeing your travels!

    1. Lou its going to be a challenge but I am planning on visiting places that are semi-local as well.

I would love to hear your thoughts!

TreLuxe Curl Supreme 4-in-1 Hydrating Creme
Natural Hair, Reviews

Tre Luxe Review – Type 4 Hair – Flat Twist & Curl #DiscoverLuxe #Curlfluence

Hey Darlings! I’m back with my first hair review for 2019. As many of you already know I recently had my hair cut again in December and since then I have been on the hunt for a few products that will help me achieve a curly look while maintaining moisture without me having to add any additional products. I was recently contacted by Curlfluence for the opportunity to try the TreLuxe Collection. Honestly I have been watching the brand for a few years so naturally I would jump to the opportunity to try their products.

TreLuxe products were designed to provide naturals with a premium professional styling experience. I was excited when I learned that TreLuxe uses Active Botanicals™ Ingredients in their products. I love how their ultimate goal was to seek our high quality natural sources, then have expert chemist isolate and extract the nutrients that are most beneficial to our beauty natural hair. Hence you have superior results with each style.

Currently, the TreLuxe line consists of five products: Curl & Restore Gentle Cleansing Rinse, Untie the Knot Nourishing Leave-In Conditioner, Reflex Curl Styling Serum, Curl Supreme Styling Creme and High Definition Curl Enhancer Styling Gel. I received all of the above except the High Definition Curl Enhancer. Enough talk let’s get to the review!

TreLuxe Curl Renew & Restore

I started out with two-week old dirty hair full of products. I wouldn’t normally do this but since I knew that I would be receiving a new product to try I wanted to really put it to the test. I normally cleanse my hair weekly on a Sunday afternoon. The first product that I used was the TreLuxe Curl Renew & Restore Gentle Cleaning Rinse (360° Curls Complex w/tomato extract) which retails for $14.50.

The Curl Renew & Restore is a sulfate and silicon free rinse that moisturizes while gently removing buildup and replenishing moisture while making detangling a breeze. OMG! I normally have to add a few steps to ensure that my hair is properly detangled. I have always had really thick hair so in order to get my hair detangled I ALWAYS have to add additional products and steps. THAT WAS NOT THE CASE with TreLuxe! Did I mention that I only had to use a small amount? I used an amount equivalent to Kennedy fifty cent.

TreLuxe Curl Untie the Knot

I immediately followed up with their Untie the Knot Nourishing Leave-In Conditioner for wavy, curly and coily hair. This product retails for $18.50 and promises to detangle, nourish and replenish your lively curls. I can contest that its true to its promise. I love the fact the Untie the Knot is a naturally based conditioner, formulated with coconut milk, slippery elm, and olive extract which contributes to making the detangle process easier while moisturizing every strand of my beautiful tresses. Trust me this is the BOMB Leave-In for Type 4 hair. The cinnamon scent was absolutely divine.

TreLuxe Reflex Curling Serum

The Reflex Curl Styling Serum ($18.50) creates bouncy, silky, natural curls with flexible hold. I was honestly a little concern with using a serum because I simply wasn’t sure how my hair would react but surprisingly my hair soaked it up with no problem. I ensured that every strand received the same attention during the application which definitely makes a difference when it comes to my hair texture. The serum is very lightweight and provided an additional slip while adding shine. I could have very well stopped at this step but I was curious to see how all the products worked together. I will caution you that I ensured that my hair was saturated with water during the entire process. I honestly believe that the botanical extracts helped with the shine. I added this by section before adding the creme.

TreLuxe Curl Supreme 4-in-1 Hydrating Creme

And… we get to the Holy Grail! OMG! Ya’ll know that I love a fabulous creme but Lord knows I was so unprepared for the TreLuxe Curl Supreme 4-in-1 Hydrating Creme ($22.00) gave me my entire life! Listen I normally have to use gobs of creme to moisturize my hair and add a homemade essential oil spritzer but not with TreLuxe. This curl supreme does hydrate, strengthen, protect and style your tresses. A little goes a long way. I was so surprised by how little of this product I actually used. I have been doing a twist and curl since getting my hair cut but this time I decided to do a flat twist with rods on the ends. I use a few different size rods so you’ll see how colorful my set looks. LOL!

Once I had all of the product in my hair by following the instructions using the products by the order in which they are listed above with the exception of the creme. I parted my hair into six sections (2 in the very back where my hair is the shortest, two in the middle and two in the very front). I always start with the very back section (shorter section) and detangled my hair again with a denman brush while separating the back section with a rack tail comb to create my flat twist. As I parted each twist out I added a very small amount of Curl Supreme Creme ensuring that every strand was saturated with product. Remember that I previously added the Reflex Curl Styling Serum so my hair was already moisturized.

If you look closely you will see the flat twist in the shortest section of my hair. If you do not know how to flat twist there are thousands of videos on youtube demonstrating the process. I added smaller blue and yellow rods to the last row of flat twist the moved to the very front of my hair. I start in the front next because the middle of my hair is so thick that it takes extra time and care to twist.

In the above image I have one section of my front flat twisted with rods, a completed back and the remaining side and middle to complete. Continue the flat twist in the front and work your way to the middle. Remember you will have three complete rows. Do not worry about having neat parts because your beautiful bouncy curls will cover them.

Don’t worry about the white curl supreme because your hair will soak it up over night. All I did was place a satin bonnet on my hair to keep my hair moisturized and protected. The next day I removed the rods and carefully untwisted my flat twist. PLEASE! PLEASE! Take your time. Allow your hair to NATURALLY SEPARATEThis is key to achieving the BOMB Curly Twist look. Please note that my hair was cut in a heart shape so I could achieve the look that I’m going for once my hair completely grows out. Just to clarify the heart shape cut means that my hair is big on the top and more shaped as it forms the sides of the heart. I did not use any oil like I would normally need to because my hair was still moisturized after two days in flat twist. I used my fingers to lift my roots and then used an old school wire afro pick. That’s it!

Day 1 Hair

Verdict: It’s definitely a YES for me! I re-twisted my hair the next night and only had to add a small amount of Curl Supreme Creme and thats only a preference of mine. I would love to try their High Definition in the future. I will say that once I find a product that loves my hair and my crazy lifestyle it becomes my GO-TO and TreLuxe has just secured the #1 spot. I posted a picture on Facebook and received so many compliments on my beautiful curls. Thank you Curlfluence and TreLuxe.

Finally, a device to guide firefighters lost in smoke

A recent blaze in Worcester, Mass., that killed a firefighter brought back memories of a deadly warehouse fire there 12 years ago that took six firefighters' lives. The responders got disoriented and trapped inside a cold smoke-filled storage building.

A recent blaze in Worcester, Mass., that killed a firefighter brought back memories of a deadly warehouse fire there 12 years ago that took six firefighters' lives. The responders got disoriented and trapped inside a cold smoke-filled storage building.

A promising new device aims to provide accurate navigation, even through the haze of smoke.

NEWS: Where is GPS Tracking Taking Us?

"The requirement from a first responder perspective is what we call situational awareness," said Carol Politi, chief executive officer of TRX Systems, the Maryland-based company that makes the device.

First responders usually communicate with a commander stationed outside via handheld radio, but thick smoke can make it extremely difficult for others to track the first responders' exact location, guide them to civilians or send help if they get lost. GPS needs clear views of at least three satellites to work accurately so it tends to fail indoors.

The TRX Tracking Unit has both tracking and mapping capabilities and contains a range of sensors similar to a Wii controller. It includes an accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, altimeter and ranging sensors. Data from those sensors is combined and any errant data such as a skewed compass reading is discarded.

As the device wearer moves through a building, the sensors determine the person’s exact location and start to create a map of the space in real time. The device attains an initial GPS reading when the wearer is outside and then once the user is inside, a different group of signals come into play.

Sensor data can either be transmitted through a personal area network or Bluetooth to the firefighter’s radio, where it is then sent to a commander’s computer. The system can also use a standard cellular network to communicate the location data. A commander sees a map displaying all the firefighters wearing devices.

“Generally you’ll know an outline of the building or, as someone moves through a building, we discover things,” Politi said. “We’re starting to create a map of that building so that we can deliver a more accurate navigation result.” The device weighs about 8 ounces and is designed to function in firefighting conditions.

TRX Systems’ sensor map technology has been in development for several years with support from the National Science Foundation. Currently the device and application are being used on a limited basis, Politi said. The retail price hasn’t been finalized yet, but the company plans to make the technology widely available in the second half of 2012.

Beyond firefighting, the tracking and mapping system is being eyed for use by law enforcement officers, SWAT teams, and soldiers who need to navigate urban environments. The device is also being readied for defense and law enforcement scenarios.

Politi said that this type of interior navigation would also be useful for businesses and the public. She pictures it being an application for a smart device that helps users navigate to specific offices in a large building or a restaurant inside an airport, without the need to rely on Wi-Fi hotspots.

“The ‘you are here’ sign should get eradicated in a few years,” Politi said.

Steve Edwards directs the Maryland Fire and Rescue Institute at the University of Maryland and is working on fine tuning the tracking device with TRX.

NEWS: GPS Shoes for Alzheimer’s Patients?

“This issue of firefighters lost in building was a problem the first day I joined the fire department. Forty-two years later, it’s still a problem,” Edwards said. “This is the first technology I’ve seen that has the promise to help.”

Matthew Leonard is a firefighter with the District of Columbia and volunteer deputy fire chief with the Hyattsville Volunteer Fire Department in Prince Georges County. Several years ago, he got disoriented inside a vacant building fire.

"It was probably the thickest, nastiest smoke I’d ever really been in," he said. "It was soupy brown."

The batteries in his radio were dead. Then he heard a throttle for a pump outside and figured out which way to exit, falling through the building front onto the sidewalk.

Recently Leonard used the newest version of the TRX Tracking Unit in a demonstration at the Maryland Fire and Rescue Institute. He compared it to the advent of the self-contained breathing apparatus. "You’re always going to know exactly where all of the people are," he said. "That's really a huge step in fire service."

Leonard remembers the deadly 1999 Worcester fire. "A lot of them didn’t even know what floor they were on," he said. "Having tracking on them, they would have been able to find those guys in the past instantaneously."

NCR Silver Makes Everyday Easier for Small Businesses with Gift Card Update

Duluth, Ga., March 14, 2013 NCR Corporation announced today that the NCR Silver mobile point-of-sale (POS) system has been updated to give small business owners the ability to easily promote and grow their businesses with gift card programs.

NCR Silver’s gift card capabilities make loading, accepting and managing gift cards as simple as taking credit card payments, giving small business owners an easy, affordable way to create powerful business-building gift card programs.

Existing customers typically give gift cards to potential new customers, so gift cards are an important way to promote a business. And gift cards usually result in sales much higher than the gift card’s face value.  According to industry research, 61 percent of gift card recipients spent more than the value of the cards, with the average gift card holder spending an additional $29 over the value of the card.

“Until now, small business owners relied on hard-to-manage paper gift certificate programs – if they offered any gift certificate program at all,” said Christian Nahas, vice president and general manager of NCR small business team. “Integrating gift cards with NCR Silver gives small business owners the power to easily build their business. It also sets up current customers to tell others about the business while giving gifts to their friends and family.”

Because NCR Silver is cloud-based, the gift card update easily deploys to existing NCR Silver customers and is included in all new versions of NCR Silver delivered to customers.  The freedom and flexibility of the updates empowers new and existing NCR Silver customers to respond quickly to changes in customer expectations.

“We’re speaking with retail, hospitality and other businesses and their consumers every day to stay ahead of business and shopper expectations to ensure NCR Silver offers the tools and functions small businesses need today and tomorrow,” said Nahas.

Powerful cloud-based technology allows NCR Silver to go beyond simple payment swipe and cash-register functions, giving small business owners the power to easily track sales, profits and inventory; market to customers with targeted and customized email campaigns; analyze business trends; and manage business finances.  NCR Silver operates on Apple® devices running iOS, like the iPad®, iPhone® and iPod touch®, giving small businesses the freedom to interact with customers from anywhere.  Apple devices are sold separately.

© 2018 The Author(s). Background: Countries vary in the extent to which reforms have been implemented expanding nurses' Scopes-of-Practice (SoP). There is limited cross-country research if and how reforms affect clinical practice, particularly in hospitals. This study analyses health professionals' perceptions of role change and of task shifting between the medical and nursing professions in nine European countries. Methods: Cross-sectional design with surveys completed by 1716 health professionals treating patients with breast cancer (BC) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in 161 hospitals across nine countries. Descriptive and bivariate analysis on self-reported staff role changes and levels of independence (with/without physician oversight) by two country groups, with major SoP reforms implemented between 2010 and 2015 (Netherlands, England, Scotland) and without (Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Norway, Poland, Turkey). Participation in 'medical tasks' was identified using two methods, a data-driven and a conceptual approach. Individual task-related analyses were performed for the medical and nursing professions, and Advanced Practice Nurses/Specialist Nurses (APN/SN). Results: Health professionals from the Netherlands, England and Scotland more frequently reported changes to staff roles over this time period vs. the other six countries (BC 74.0% vs. 38.7%, p<.001; AMI 61.7% vs. 37.3%, p<.001), and higher independence in new roles (BC 58.6% vs. 24.0%, p<.001; AMI 48.9% vs. 29.2%, p<.001). A higher proportion of nurses and APN/SN from these three countries reported to undertake tasks related to BC diagnosis, therapy, prescribing of medicines and information to patients compared to the six countries. Similar cross-country differences existed for AMI on prescribing medications and follow-up care. Tasks related to diagnosis and therapy, however, remained largely within the medical profession's domain. Most tasks were reported to be performed by both professions rather than carried out by one profession only. Conclusions: Higher levels of changes to staff roles and task shifting were reported in the Netherlands, England and Scotland, suggesting that professional boundaries have shifted, for instance on chemotherapy or prescribing medicines. For most tasks, however, a partial instead of full task shifting is practice.

It’s not even the end of February and the Crowder Roughriders have reached 10 wins on the season.

It’s not even the end of February and the Crowder Roughriders have reached 10 wins on the season.
Crowder improved to 10-1 on the season with a 13-7 win Friday against Southeastern (Iowa) at Roughrider Field.
The ‘Riders took advantage of 11 runs in the first inning and held on for the win over the long nine-inning haul.
Crowder began a four-game series Saturday at home against nationally-ranked Iowa Western. Stories and photos from the weekend series will be in Tuesday’s edition of the Daily News. Sunday’s doubleheader begins at noon.
Iowa Western entered the series 3-5 on the season, coming off a split against Northeastern Oklahoma A&M (13-3 loss, 17-4 win), the only team to win against Crowder this season.
In the first inning Friday, Crowder jumped all over Southeastern starter Andrew Stout, who did not make it past one out in the first, roughed up for seven runs (four earned) on five hits over 1/3 inning.
Leadoff man Jacob Adams took a 2-2 pitch from Stout and singled, then Tyler Duncan hit a RBI triple scoring Adams. No. 3 and No. 4 hitters Elvis Peralta and Kyle MacDonald, respectively, hit RBI singles, MacDonald helped out by a Peralta stolen base and Stout error advancing Peralta 90 feet.
After five straight hits, capped off by a Luke Price single, that’s when walks started taking their toll on Stout. He walked Kyle Blackwell to load the bases and then Blake Daniels and Kobe Morris drew walks, Morris loading the bases again after Price scored on a passed ball.
With two outs and Southeastern reliever Pedro Garcia in the contest, the wheels fell off during Duncan’s second at-bat of the first. See, first baseman Oliver Baez’s error allowed Blackwell, Daniels and Morris to score and Crowder took a 8-0 lead.
Peralta hit a RBI triple and Price a two-run triple to close out the scoring in a wild Crowder first.
The ‘Riders would not score again until the seventh, sitting on 11 runs for a long time.
Southeastern plated four runs in the second and two in the third.
Braeden Brown knocked a three-run home run in the second off Crowder starter Aaron Ashby, who remains looking for his first win of the season.
Austin Martin and Mario Melgoza hit back-to-back doubles starting the third, and Melgoza later scored on an Adams error. Adams atoned for the error one batter later when he started a 6-3 double play.
Ashby took a no-decision, allowing six runs (five earned) on five hits over three innings. He struck out three and walked none.
Patrick Flanagan earned the win in relief, allowing one run on four hits over four innings. Flanagan struck out three and walked two. He earned his first career win in his second career appearance.
Nate Alberius earned the save with two scoreless innings.
Offensively, Crowder was led by three-hit performances by the No. 3-5 spots in their lineup, Peralta, MacDonald and Price. Adams scored two runs, as did Duncan, Peralta, MacDonald and Morris. Peralta drove in three runs and MacDonald and Price each drove in two.
Of Southeastern’s 10 hits, half of them were for extra bases — home runs by Brown and Baez and doubles by Zeb Adreon, Melgoza and Martin.
Southeastern was ranked No. 19 in the preseason poll for NJCAA Division II. The Blackhawks were 41-20 last season, part of three straight 40-win seasons in a row.

Southeastern     042  000 100 —   7 10 2

Breaching the Dark: “The Man in The Couch”

Photograph by Becca A. Lewis

Writer and director Alison Meirowitz/McCarthy
Now running, Nov. 2-18 Thurs-Sat 8pm, Sun 3pm
Review by Kitty Drexel
(Boston) The Man in the Couchis a hard candy nugget of science fiction and horror. On the surface it is smooth and hard and the characters’ inner depths continue to be the same. It isn’t sweet but it can offer some satisfaction. Our main characters are the rock and hard place that they have to breach in order to regain relative sanity/peace. It is reminiscent of The Twilight Zoneepisode “Nothing in the Dark” about an old woman shut away in an apartment to avoid meeting “Mr. Death” (the swoon-inducing Robert Redford). Continue reading

River is Producing Some Nice Stripers

Colorado River - Laughlin - Laughlin, NV

by Nevada Department of Wildlife

The river is producing nice striper catches near Davis Dam and throughout Casino Row. Anchovies are the go-to bait, but a shad crankbait or trout swimbait should also entice the fish. Reports of smallmouth bass catches are coming in just south of Casino Row. The fish are taking night crawlers and soft plastics. The weekends are beginning to draw large crowds for recreation, so try fishing in the evenings or on weekdays for calmer waters.
