Value is the governing factor with the things I possess. I was going to say own, but I don't think I own anything, I just possess it until it leaves my possession. I still have trouble letting go though, some things just have too much potential.
I feel qualified to share my experiences and tips with the world because I am actually doing every one of the steps on my list. I have been unemployed for 16 months (I did work for two months in the middle there). For ten of those months I collected no unemployment benefits. I now am collecting unemployment benefits (I felt that I shouldn't do it, but someone reminded me that it was my money). I am going to school on the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill, and making it work on the little money I get from these two sources. My wife is a nurse and can make good money, but we choose for her to work less so she can be home for the summer with the kids. During the rest of the year she works and we save, we have eliminated most of our bills to make this a possibility. I am now unemployed by choice because juggling school, work, and kids is too much for anyone person and my heart goes out to those that manage to do it. My wife was in that position when we met and I quickly convinced her to stop working and let me handle the money part so she could continue her schooling. I saw how hard it can be, and do not want to do that myself (she is definitely stronger than me).
I like stuff, it is programmed into me from my childhood, from TV, from the outside forces of the media and U.S. culture. I am trying to de-program myself.
Instead of working hard just so we can pay the credit card bills and loans for the stuff we don't need, we work what we need to, just so we can do the things that give us the one thing we truly own, memories.
I've recently started reading your blog after a connection from the Bike Trailer Blog. Your situations sound very similar to mine. I applaud you for continuing education even though it may be hard financially for your family. My wife supported me and worked while I finished my degree, though we didn't have our daughter until I graduated and got my first salary job. Now my wife doesn't work so she can stay home with the little one (18 months).
You also posted about getting rid of your car. This is something I did about 6 months ago. We have one car (Honda CRV) and I bike to work everyday though it's a short 10 blocks. I can say we are just now over the initial regret stage and are enjoying it. I have sacrificed a few things, but I have also gained a few things (non-material).
I have a book recommendation for you since you're talking about getting rid of stuff. "Put Your Life on a Diet". This is a short read by a guy who lives by himself in a small 140 Sq. Ft. trailer. He's not saying you should live in a trailer, but he does have lots of ideas about slimming down not only yourself but everything else in your life. I was very inspired by this and have recently rid my entire house of things that haven't been used in one year (to the tune of about $400). Like you I am also a Craigslist veteran.
I can't say I share your view on tools though. I feel it's less important to have a good set of tools and more important to have a neighbor who has a good set of tools (and a good relationship with such a neighbor). I've cleaned my gutters quarterly using my neighbor's 10 ft. step ladder.
Please try to schedule any personal appointments after camp time.
We cannot guarantee that friends will be in the same group. Request must be submitted upon registration with email to vlenyk@randolphnj.org. No requests after 6/17.
At the beginning of each session, students will be divided into groups where they will learn a song and simple movement, which will then be used to “audition” for the directors. After auditions, each student will then be assigned a role and placed in a cast. Students will participate in acting, music, and dance workshops during one part of the day with the other half of the day dedicated to rehearsals for the show. Friday mornings of performance days, dress rehearsals will take place using costumes and props. Each group will have the opportunity to rehearse on the BPP stage.
What theatrical performance experience would be complete without an audience? At the end of each two-week session we present a production for an audience of parents, relatives and friends. Performances will be held in the theatre each session’s final Friday afternoon at 1:00* or 2:00*, depending on the particular group’s assigned time. Admission is free for these performances.
* Times may be adjusted depending on needs.
Student should be dropped off at the theatre at 9:00 am. The theater is located in Brundage Park, on Carrell Road in Randolph. The program will begin promptly at 9:15 a.m. Students must be picked up promptly at 3:00. Wait outside of the theater lobby until the theater doors are opened. Proceed through the theater doors and out through the right hand exit in front of the stage. For safety reasons, we must insist on this one-way traffic pattern. On performance date Fridays, students will leave following their performance. Please park your car in the park parking lot and do not block the entrance into or out of the park. This is a safety concern.

Attendees visit the Vodafone Group pavilion at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, March 4, 2015.
Vodafone, one of the world's biggest telecoms companies, announced better-than-expected sales Friday as its 4G plans grow.
The U.K.-based company reported an acceleration in its main quarterly sales growth on Friday as a cable TV acquisition in its biggest market, Germany, where it faces strong competition from Deutsche Telecom, lifted sales and consolidated the overall return to growth for the British firm. It also returned to growth in the U.K.
However, there was no mention in its statement of the one thing many investors want to hear about - a potential deal in Western Europe with John Malone's Liberty Global. The U.K., Germany and Netherlands were the markets identified by Malone as most fertile ground for a tie-up in May, but little has been heard on the deal in recent weeks.
The world's second-largest mobile operator said first-quarter organic service revenue grew 0.8 percent, ahead of the 0.1 percent it recorded in the fourth quarter and better than most analysts had expected.

The group reiterated its outlook for the full year.

NORTH BRUNSWICK, N.J. — Body cameras captured the moment a North Brunswick police officer climbed up a burning building to rescue a family.
The fire started Saturday around 10:20 P.M. at the Governor's Pointe Condominiums. When Officer Grasso arrived, two grandparents and their grandchildren were trapped on the balcony of their apartment.
Grasso climbed up to the family and handed the family members down to other officers who were on the ground below.
In all, 28 people were left homeless after the fire destroyed 12 apartments. No one was injured.
The best way to describe my relationship with Cogent Analytics is a memory that I have from about 24 years ago.
My wife encouraged me to go have my eyes checked. Obviously, I needed glasses and I was in denial. After choosing the frames that fit and scratch resistant lens the cost was more than I wanted to spend.
Ultimately, my wife suggested to spend the money on what makes you want to wear them , and built strong enough to last. Make a good investment in a product that allows you to see and do your job effectively. Also, I was an UPS driver during that time of my life and struggled to see numbers on houses. “Necessity is the mother of all inventions” I heard that a time or two. After getting my glasses, the salesman asked if I had ever worn glasses before. My response was, no I have not. The salesman said “this is the part of my job I love the most”. He asked me to look at the door with a sign on it. I think the sign read , employees only. I could only tell him that it was blue in color. He handed me my glasses and ask that I looked at the sign again. As I put the glasses on, I could read it perfectly. What an eye-opening experience for me.
Meeting with Merlin and working with Mick has been the same eye-opening experience for me. I know we have a good product, with hard working employees, but I felt that we needed direction moving forward on better ways to run our business. I’m a firm believer in surrounding yourself with intelligent people. When your plumbing breaks, call a plumber. Our company was leaking from many different areas before we trusted in the process implemented by Mick.
We have a new product for the industry with many hurdles in front of us, but I’m optimistic that we can still land on our feet if we trip up every now and then. I’m confident that the foundation that Mick help lay will keep us stable down the obstacle filled path ahead.
Lavender is one of my favorite herbs for nerve stress and tension. It has a special affinity with women’s spirit. Often thought of as a delicate ornamental, lavender is not only beautiful and aromatic, but pungent and powerful. Native to the Mediterranean, where it grows wild on sun-drenched hills, it has traveled far and wide and has taken up residence in gardens everywhere. With its lovely, lavender blue flowers and fragrant pungent odor, it as entwined itself into the hearts of women everywhere and is a very useful herb if we open to its strengthening and empowering qualities.
Lavender has long been valued for its ability to bring courage and strength to the user. Traditionally, sprigs of lavender were tied in bundles and placed in the hands of women in labor. Squeezing the fragrant bundles was believed to give them added strength and courage during childbirth. Lavender has long been used to calm nervous stress and is especially useful during menopause and menstrual difficulties. During the Middle Ages it was a valued remedy for hysteria. I’ve found it can be very healing to women undergoing their periods of intense stress to place sprigs of lavender and lavender oil in the rooms of their home. Its essence brings calmness and inner strength to the user.
In every culture throughout the world you will find a great body of folklore concerning the indigenous plants of that region and the wise women who used them. For thousands of years women collected plants from meadows and woodlands and used them to create healing medicines. They gathered herbs by the waning and the waxing moon, artfully created preparations, and developed herbal formulas.
Through an intuitive communication with the plants, women learned the healing powers of these green allies. Their wisdom developed over countless years as remedies were tried, proven, and passed on. The best of these remedies were added to the lore, and the wisdom was transferred from mother to daughter, from wise woman to apprentice for countless generations.
This is the legacy we have inherited. Healers, wise women, simplers—these women were the center and source of medicine and healing for their communities. They understood the cycles of the seasons, the ebb and flow of the universe, the sun, the moon, the stars, and the natural rhythms of their bodies.
This has got to be one of the easiest desserts I've ever made. It took me all of 3-5 minutes to pull together.
Combine drained crushed pineapple, dry pudding mix and yogurt, until well blended.
Pour into a graham wafer pie shell (I used chocolate). Sprinkle 2 tbsp coconut on top. decorate with pineapple slices and cherries, and then sprinkle another 2 tbsp coconut over everything. Allow to cool and set in the refrigerator.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Bankers Healthcare Group, a leading provider of financial solutions for health care professionals, has expanded its offices in Syracuse, New York. The company has leased one of the most unique workspaces in the city: the historic Engine 14 fire station located at 238 Division St.

In the digital marketing world there’s an increasing trend towards measuring how online advertising affects offline sales. Previously there has been relatively little growth in this space, but with Facebook pumping swathes of cash into developing their online advertising, improvements are being released more and more frequently.
Facebook is becoming an increasingly friendly advertising platform for retailers and e-tailers. However, the latest update for Facebook ads links retailers’ Facebook ads to their offline, in-store products.
This means that Facebook can show more relevant stock to more relevant customers with up-to-date prices and stock levels.
For example, say your Brisbane donut store has baked 50 donuts for today, 30 Vanilla Swirl and 20 Face Invaders – because everyone loves donuts right? After the lunch rush you update your stock levels using your stock management system to show that you only have 10 Vanilla Swirl and 5 Face Invaders left.
Get into our Brisbane store quick! Only 5 Face Invader donuts left for today.
Depending on your advertising campaign approach you could run a price discount using your dynamic Facebook ads.
