The Scarecrows are Sweating
Easy Fall Decorating Tips to Spruce Up Your Home
by Samantha Conner
This time of year is always hard for me. Once the Fourth of July passes, it seems like all the retail world moves straight into Fall. Since I have lived in the South for the majority of my life, I have a skewed internal calendar. Summer lasts a good 6 months and then the other 3 seasons fight it out for how the remaining 6 months of the year will end up. Some years we get weird, cold snowy weather. And some years, we go straight from Summer back to Spring. This inconsistency in weather is what makes the time of year so hard for me.
My favorite hangouts, crafty stores and Nordstroms, keep tempting me with apple cider candles and snuggly cable knit sweaters. I realize it is September, but in the South, September is still summer and the poor scarecrows are even sweating.
So those pumpkins, orange leaves, and ceramic turkeys aren’t going to make an appearance around my home until October. In the meantime- and to keep my mind off those all the cute fall crafts– we have been doing a few things to spruce up the house for the change of seasons. Looking for a little change around your home? Try these quick fixes!

Work from Home Jobs: Tips & Opportunities
by Sara Sutton Fell, CEO of FlexJobs

Working from home does take discipline but removing the time it takes to drive to work during traffic hours alone saves several hours a week. With more and more small to large companies (IBM, AT&T, United Health Group, Cisco, etc.) jumping on board, the big question remains – how do you find the positions?
