    Fun Canada Day Matching Game Printable

    June 30, 2018 - By 

    This month have some fun with this Canada Day matching game. It’s a great way for kids to spend a few moments when you are getting dinner ready or doing something that needs to be done.

So, that makes her birthday so easy to remember. But, it means many people are always away that time of year and party throwing is tricky. Don’t miss the…

    Husky Enacts Pay Before You Pump Policy

    June 27, 2018 - By 

    What if making one small change improved safety for many? Would you do it? Actually I like to think most people would adjust and make the small changes necessary to help others. That’s what Husky’s pay before you pump policy is about. The pay before you pump policy is common sense and ensures safety of both gas station attendants and customers. It’s a pre-emptive move against gas theft incidents that could cause injuries to attendants and customers. Pay Before You Pump Helps Increase Safety If you’ve filled up at a Husky station, you’ve probably noticed their new policy. They’ve been implementing this…

    Heavy Periods are More than Just Inconvenient

    June 22, 2018 - By 

    Disclosure: I have partnered with YMC and Hologic and have received compensation for this post. All opinions are my own.  Heavy periods are more than just an inconvenience that some women suffer with. I had heavy periods for much of my life. My mom had them.
