We all love a weekend getaway, but don't overlook the weekdays. Booking a flight to depart on a weekday and return on a weekday could save you a lot of money. Rates are much lower on the weekdays so it's the prime time to search those discount flight websites and save some money. Airline tickets cost the most on Fridays and Sundays so try to avoid those if you can.
That's all for this week's Tip Tuesday. Quick and simple this week. Stay tuned to this blog, my Facebook page (Mayday1101), and my YouTube channel (mayday1101) because there is much more to come very soon. Just trying to get through the rest of my college semester with some of my sanity left. lol Then I will have much more time to devote to my DIY projects, giveaways and more! Have a great day everyone! :)

Take Your Child to Work Day
Today is Take Your Child to Work Day! I decided to have my son stay home with me to see all that I do around the house in a day. He is also learning about my college courses that I am currently taking as well as what all of this takes to accomplish while trying to entertain 2 small children (his little brothers). I think he has a new-found respect for all that I do for them since he has had to help with laundry, dishes, cleaning floor...and knowing there is still more to do today. He wanted to know when break time was and was not happy to find out that there is no break time. lol Don't worry though, I let him sit it out for a little while.
I'm going to let him write a little about his experience here because blogging is also a part of my life. I have some exciting projects in the works that I can't wait to share with you all very soon on my YouTube channel. He is helping with some of the prep work and research on that today as well. Be sure to subscribe to my channel by clicking here ---mayday1101--- so you are notified when these projects and giveaways (Yes, I said giveaways) are uploaded.
My son's experience so far today:
Today has been the best in my life. It has been awesome to see what my Mom does. I want to do this every day because it is fun to spend time with my Mom. Except for the housekeeping because that thing is a real pain in the neck. I like laundry but I do not like dishes. I want my own blog and youtube channel someday to talk about books and video games.
I love that he gets to see my every day life of what I do to care for my boys and how I am constantly working towards a better life for them and myself. Did you take your child to work with you today? I would love to hear about it. Feel free to leave a comment below. Have a great day everyone!

Tip Tuesday: Plan Ahead
Growing up, my parents always told me to plan ahead. This holds true in all that we do in life from career choices, investing/saving money...even laying out your clothes the night before so you are ready to go. Planning ahead of time saves so much time and stress in the future. It's never too late to start.
This is something that I still struggle with as an adult, but have really been working on it a lot these past few weeks and thought I might share this with you all and maybe spark a fire for someone out there to start planning for themselves as well. A good way to start is to get a journal, planner or calendar and plan out the upcoming week; pencil in appointments, errands and even meals if it will make your week easier. Oh, and don't forget to put in a little time for yourself to relax and enjoy your accomplishments at week's end. Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.
I hope you enjoyed this week's Tip Tuesday! More to come soon, so be sure to check back often.

Tip Tuesday: How to Get Soft and Sexy Feet
With the sandal and strappy heel weather approaching, it's time to get your feet looking good. If you are like me, the winter months wreak havoc on my feet and I have to work extra hard to maintain good skin...especially on the heel of my foot. The cold tends to make your skin dry and some people will find that the skin can even start cracking. Not a good look for revealing foot fashion we see in the spring and summer. Here are a 3 easy steps that have helped me get my feet feeling soft and sexy (If feet can even be defined as sexy. lol) because I am ready to show them off in my new kicks...purchased on clearance of course. lol
Step 1: Use a pumice stone in the shower to rub off the dead skin that is on your feet.
Step 2: Fresh out of the shower, use a thick foot lotion or good quality body lotion all over your feet. Look at the ingredients...alcohol should NOT be towards the top of that list if at all.
EXTRA TIP: The higher up on the list the more of that ingredient is in the product.
Step 3: Put on a pair of cotton socks and wear them to bed overnight.
You will find a drastic difference in the appearance of your feet after the first time of doing this. Remember to do this on a regular basis for optimal results. You should also pamper yourself even more by giving yourself a pedicure the next day. Your feet will thank you for it. ;)
