Walgreens

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

 

A friend of mine told me her husband, Steve, is having problems using a Tricare program offered to people in the military.  Steve has a friend that uses Walgreens and Express Scripts and says this is the most affordable and convenient source for his prescription medicines.  For some reason I’m still trying to understand, Steve and others  from the military are not being allowed to use this same option like his friend.  Steve is so frustrated about not being able to access this option like his friend that he contacted the local media to advise them of the situation.  Others should do the same if they are unable to take advantage of the Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens for the military.  My friend learned more about this dispute by searching for Walgreens on Twitter and Walgreens on Facebook because both places have valuable and up to date info on this topic.  My friend asked me to like Walgreens on Facebook because they support the troops and they believe Express Scripts is not cooperating like they should.  This would be a good idea for others that want to show their support for Walgreens and to encourage Express Scripts to resolve the issue for everyone involved.

The Magic Of Love


Love is like magic
And it always will be.
For love still remains
Life's sweet mystery!!
Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
And there's nothing in life
That love cannot change!!
Love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace.
Love is unselfish,
Understanding and kind,
For it sees with its heart
And not with its mind!!
Love is the answer
That everyone seeks...
Love is the language,
That every heart speaks.
Love can't be bought,
It is priceless and free,
Love, like pure magic,
Is life's sweet mystery!!

Dog waste stations

My family loves the outdoors and when it’s nice outside, we usually take a long walk or have a picnic in the park. I like the park close to where I live because they have very nice pet waste stations and dog exercise equipment which I am starting to see more in other parks. I love dogs and finding those nice accessories in a park for the dogs is just awesome to me. Anyway, when the spring comes, we will be spending more time in the park.

Our daughter loves to sit on some of the aluminum bleachers near the football field. In our park, they have a small football field where they have portable bleachers for people to sit. Instead of sitting down on them, our daughter loves to climb up and down the bleachers. I told my hubby we need to get some pictures of her playing on them the next time we go there and she plays on the bleachers.

Eggplant

I love eggplant and it’s good for you too. Rachel and my hubby do not like it and I can’t blame them because those two are so picky when it comes to food. My hubby wanted to go bowling tonight, but I don’t want to go out because the weather is so cold today.

Getting a TV

Post contributed by Toni Jensen

For the longest time I resisted getting a TV at home because I didn’t want the kids to get too addicted to the thing. I had heard horror stories about children never getting off the couch and not being able to carry on conversations because they spent hours a day in front of the screen but I finally decided I couldn’t shield them from technology forever so I got us a http://www.cannonsatellite.com/direct-tv-movies.html package and talked to them about what they were allowed and not allowed to watch. It’s actually been a pretty easy transition and I think because my kids haven’t really had a TV they’re not all that interested in it. My daughter really likes MTV but that’s because she’s 15 but she only watches an hour or so a day before she’s bored with it and goes outside. My son is really active in sports and always has been so all he really watches is games which is totally fine with me – that’s like not even watching TV at all practically!

Love

Love feels no burden,
thinks nothing of trouble,
attempts what is above its strength,
pleads no excuse of impossibility...
It is therefore able to undertake all things,
and it completes many things,
and warrants them to take effect,
where he who does not love would faint and lie down.
Love is watchful and sleeping, slumbereth not.
Though weary, it is not tired;
though pressed, it is not straitened;
though alarmed, it is not confounded...

Agency

My hubby’s friend owns a small company. The business has been around for almost ten years now, but still they can’t get enough people to drive their business. He called my husband and asked him some advice. He said people are on the internet a lot nowadays. Having a good advertising agency will surely help his business grow and more traffic. An Advertising Agency will first research your industry and your business model to try to help determine what might work.

That is why, most businesses nowadays should have an advertising campaign to help their business generate more profit. So, while surfing on the internet, he found this great place and found a lot of valuable information about advertising agencies. They have been in the business for years providing great customer service. They offer very competitive prices and when you visit their website, you will see their portfolio. Anyone you know who is looking for excellent advertising agency, check out this place and see how they can help you make your business grow.

Out of milk

After the movie, we are planning to go grocery shopping at Target because we are almost out of milk and bread. I don’t know what we will have for dinner tonight. We have a lot of leftovers from last night. I made some lasagna using the recipe I got from my sister in law.
