Take The Pledge 100

I'm sure by now most of us have heard of the Shop Small movement and likely even participated. It all ties back to the idea that we can support the movers and the shakers in our communities and continue to see our local economies grow.

Here in Cleveland the community organization, The Keep It Local Project, is working to bring that movement home right here in the greater Cleveland area!

Did you know that if each shopper here in Cleveland spent just $100 of their usual holiday spending in a local store that approximately $190 million dollars would go directly into the Cleveland economy? The Keep It Local Project calls this the Pledge 100.

Can you imagine what amazing changes we could make to our community with $190 Million?! This city is already flourishing but if we all do our part to make it better we can make Cleveland better than ever.

Are you interested in learning more about the pledge? Check it out here!

A lot of awesome things come along with being the top-dog of the school, but you, right now, are building the foundation for the next 4 years that you will spend in high school. I know you've heard it all. "Get involved", "You'll regret not going to prom", "You're going to miss this". As redundant as these seem, they're true. Although I am just at the beginning of my senior year, I am realizing how many lasts I am encountering.

Why Driving Drives Me Crazy

the highways are home

With Halloween quickly approaching, I have been talking to coworkers about what scares us. There are always the obvious things like clowns, spiders, heights, etc. But me? There are a number things I don't like: trusting strangers, being yelled at, being in life or death situations, parallel parking. All of these are included when you get behind the wheel of a car.
