Water, Water Everywhere! But Not a Drop to Drink!

National Educational Support Professionals Day - This day was first celebrated in 1987 by the National Educational Association. It’s a whole day honoring and representing school support. What would we do without these support workers in schools? I’ve seen them do wonders in a school setting, and both teachers and students depend on them. Teaching is a really difficult profession, with the amount of stress and responsibility they have on their shoulders. Imagine doing it alone! That’s why they have educational support staff that assists them in their classrooms or helps out individual students or groups of children who need the extra attention. We see support professionals everywhere we go, whether that be in hospitals, schools, businesses, etc. If you love assisting and helping from the goodness of your heart, then this profession is for you. Today on National Educational Support Professionals Day, I say you do something special and show the support staff in your community how appreciated they are by checking out Brookstone. Save $15 on office desk accessories, desk organizers and more great gift ideas on orders of $150 or more when you use Brookstone coupons.

Carbonated Beverage with Caffeine Day - Can’t we just say we’re celebrating that good ol’ fashioned drink known as pop, a soft drink or soda? CHEESH! Such a long title for a really short word, with so many names! Regardless, today we are celebrating pop. Pop is the preferred drink of choice among the young and old alike, except me! I cut out pop from my diet a longgg time ago, and I only drink if I’m at a fast food place. Pop just tastes better with fast food! Nowadays, I see the commercials for new soft drinks, and I’m blown away at the amount of options out there. What happened to those traditional soft drinks everyone grew up with? Although I’m too young to remember the old school soda pop my parents used to drink, I do appreciate how they were part of people’s youth. And can I just say: I loved the bottles they came in? You know, those tall glass bottles that are soo 1950s! On Carbonated Beverage with Caffeine Day, I say you give up carbonated pop (it makes you feel bloated) and instead check out CoffeeForLess, because no one can get enough coffee. Save 6% on gourmet coffees, coffee pods, coffee brewers and more when you use CoffeeForLess coupons.

World Kindness Day - If there’s a holiday theme I love more than food holidays, it has to be holidays that encourage acts of kindness and doing good onto others. It seems we’ve all got places to go and people to see, and it’s very rare to hear someone say “thank you” after another has held the door or elevator for them. Nonetheless, it’s important that we at least try to show some human compassion and be kind to one another. It doesn’t have to be in a big way. As long as you do it from your heart, then you’ve more than completed the task of being kind. Today’s holiday was the result of the first World Kindness Movement conference founded in Japan which declared World Kindness Day November 13th. This is a pretty big deal around the world where there are over 15 member countries who also celebrate this holiday. So wherever you are, you have no excuse not to celebrate. My way of being kind is by telling you about Smart Bargains. Save 10% on discount Christian Dior handbags, Gucci jewelry and Cuisinart appliances when you use Smart Bargains coupons.

National Indian Pudding Day - Now, I bet some of you are totally lost at today’s next holiday. Indian pudding…you haven’t heard of it? Well, that’s because it’s not as popular as it should be. Who am I to talk? I’ve never actually tried it; however, researching this holiday made me quite interested in it. Indian pudding originated in Boston and is a classic New England Thanksgiving dessert. So you know what that means? You can totally serve it at this year’s Thanksgiving. Quite simply, it’s a baked custard (sounds delicious already), made of milk, butter (score!), molasses, eggs, cornmeal and spices are optional. Now, as you start making it, don’t be turned off at its sight. It’s one of those fooling desserts that don’t look half as good as it tastes. Well, Thanksgiving is two weeks away. Are your recipes in order? If not, here’s your reminder to check out Current Catalog for everything you need to make a successful and scrumptious Thanksgiving dinner. Save 10% on discount cookbooks, party supplies and thank you cards on orders of $50 or more when you use Current Catalog coupons.

Chaos Never Dies Day - Don’t I know it and I’m sure you do too. Chaos is one of life’s most precious gifts we’re given to keep ourselves busier than we already are. No matter how organized you are, chaos is still going to find you. I’m telling you! It’s everywhere. Since I have loads of time on my hands, I’ve learned to control or limit the chaos as much as I possibly can. A chaotic day for me would start off if I slept in a minute longer. This throws off my whole schedule and from that point on, my day consists of one chaotic thing after another. The funny part is that I usually function best (or so I think I do) under pressure, yet I hate chaos. For this reason, I usually avoid chaotic places and know the least chaotic times to go to certain places (e.g. the grocery store, gas station or shopping mall). If you’re like me and live for avoiding chaos, then check out Orbitz to really escape the stress! Save an additional 10% on discounted hotel stays in the Caribbean, Myrtle Beach or Florida when you use Orbitz coupons.

Pursuit of Happiness Week (8-14) - Now, I bet you find this sort of interesting. We’re acknowledging the stress in our lives in the previous holiday and we’re supposed to be happy this week? Well, you might think too much is being asked of you; however, you can’t turn down a holiday like this if you tried! Pursuit of Happiness Week is about doing everything that is most important to you and ultimately seeking happiness. As it is stated in the Declaration of Independence, all people are given unalienable rights, one of them being the pursuit of happiness. Perhaps you haven’t had time to really pursue anything that made you happy and were just going with the flow of things. Well, we can all get in this rut especially if our lives consist of the theme in today’s first holiday. So on Pursuit of Happiness Week, do everything in your power to do one thing a day that makes you happy or brings you one step closer to your goals. If you need any help, check out Franklin Covey. Save $10 on Franklin Covey planners, organizers, business and self help books on orders of $55 or more when you use Franklin Covey coupons.

October 29th - It was on this day in history that the first ball-point pen went on sale 50 years after it was patented. I consider myself a little bit of a stationery junky.

So, here are my absolute favorite office and school supply coupons for Expressionery.com, Franklin Covey, Quill and VistaPrint:

Famous Birthday

Winona Ryder, 37 - What a great actress. But most importantly, what great skin! Her soft, smooth skin makes her look like a porcelain doll. I’m sure her high cheekbones, big almond-shaped eyes and pouting mouth may also contribute to her doll-like look. Sure, she was born that way, but you can get this look too with a few items from Beauty.com. Use Beauty.com coupons to save $10 on these items when you spend $60 or more:

• Philosophy Concealer - this air-brush foundation leaves a smooth & even surface as it conceals, camouflages & protects your face
• Nars Blush - apply this soft-peachy blush to your cheek bones - sart at the apple of your cheek & move away, towards your hair line

• Urban Decay Lipstick - apply this creamy lipstick over your lips for a natural look that lasts all day & protects your lips too

There, now you’re organized with stationery and even more gorgeous!

The best presents become brandished into memory, and we look back on them fondly even years later. For example, I still remember the 16th birthday gift from my best friend, Maggie - she wrapped up sixteen full-sized boxes of chocolates as a single gift! Loved it because it made me laugh. And my dentist loved it for different reasons.

For just an acquaintance, it’s okay to give a run-of-the-mill soap on a rope, but when it’s someone close like your best friend, that simply won’t do. Give them a gift that they’ll remember forever…or at least one that they’ll be talking about for days.

Whether you want to find the perfect gift for the co-worker who’s retiring soon or you need something that’s sealed with a kiss, RedEnvelope is your source for unique presents that you’ll be hard-pressed to find elsewhere.

October 17th - It was on this day in history in 1959 that Queen Elizabeth was fined $140 for withdrawing her race horse. Wow, I know some companies like to stick to the notion that rules apply to absolutely everyone, but the Queen of England? And what’s $140 to her anyway? I guess someone was just trying to make a point.  For companies out there, there is an easier way to make a point and get noticed. Get your name out there with VistaPrint. Discover print signs, business cards, brochures & promotional items for 50% off with VistaPrint coupons!

2006 - United States Population Reaches 300 Million People - Oh my goodness! No wonder it feels like we never have any privacy or time to ourselves - there’s no room! I’m kidding.

With a little aroma therapy and scented candles, you’ll be surprised at how easily the whole world goes away! And where can you get these items for a low price?

Eminem, 36 - Although I’m not the biggest fan of his music, I have to admit that I like his laidback, urban street look. If you want to mimic Eminem’s kicked-back style, head over to Karmaloop. Find baggy jeans, hoodies and more with graphic designs and logos. Redeem exclusive Karmaloop coupons to save 10% when you spend $35 or more.

There are some memories that we want to cherish for the rest of our lives. Your daughter’s first smile is most certainly one of those. Then there were the things we’ve done that we would rather forget. (Let’s just say that dying my hair years ago a stop-sign red was a very, very bad idea.)

Through the good times and the bad times, your family and friends have been there for you. Cherish the people close to you who truly care because as we have all learned after the passing of a loved one, they won’t be there forever.
