Home Life Furniture

My husband and I built a new house from the ground up, because we wanted the home we spend the rest of our lives in to be exactly as we imagined it.

Any way, I am now trying to decorate it, but am having a hard time finding good websites to browse.

We are very eclectic, we enjoy modern (CB2 and Ikea - esque), arts and crafts, and cabin-woodsy.

I know it's a tall order, but I need some inspiration.

Where do you live? If there's a Homegoods by you - GO THERE!!! They have different products every week and they're every size, shape, style and color!!! Otherwise try homedecorators.com they have some nice stuff...good luck!

any tips for making chores easier, faster and more efficient ? like having the kind of furniture that needs minimum cleaning, cooking fast meals, keeping only the necessary clutter atc...what else?

I have always tried to keep everything I own to a minimum. I have found futons are great(get a full size enclosed matress protector and 2 futon covers it makes life with pets EASY(and kids id imangine). wood floors and a little stick vac are better on allergies and cleaning time-spills don't mean a thing as long as you get it wiped up. cooking is my weak point-I just go with whatever he wants-but hes very low key in my opinion to most guys:) just make sure you sort out you stuff often-if your not using it whats the point of cleaning it and moving it around to make room for years on end

Okay so my best friend has a bad home life. Her mom and her are always getting into fights (yelling, getting thrown out of the house in the middle of the night during a storm, physically hit, and has had furniture thrown at her!) Her step-dad doesn't do anything about it, and she doesn't know her real dad. Her pot-head brother does similar things to her, sometimes worse, like putting her into a trash can OFTEN (he tried to put me in one too!) She hates her life so bad that she talks about committing suicide. I'm really worried about her, and she can't stand it there anymore. I seriously think she's gonna snap! PLZ HELP!!!!!!!
She's been cutting herself too, like really deep.
She's over here now and she took a bunch of pills and is loopy, and annoying, and feels really warm. HELP!!!

Wow. I know exactly how she feels.
Try to help her.
Always be there for her.
let her know that you care, and if she ever needs anyone, you will always be there.
You should also tell a cop about all the abuse she is going through.
If they step in and help, you might just save her life before something serious happens to her.

My actual question is what best financial resources are available for starting a new married life (purchasing home, furniture etc etc.)

When you decide to get married, and are planning a new life, a new home, new furniture, new clothes and party, finances will concern you. NMTW Community Credit Union can help you plan for the wedding and for your new life together. If you’re just starting to save, a Club Account offered by NMTW Community Credit Union is a convenient way to separate your targeted savings from your regular account.
You can even set up joint accounts and credit cards. Some of the additional benefits you can get include convenient debit cards, free online banking, and online bill pay to help you keep track of all your household expenses. First time homebuyer programs and mortgages to help you finance a new home as well as personal and home loans to keep you afloat and debt consolidation loans are also offered by NMTW.

I am teaching my Girl Scout troop of about 20 8th grade girls about Home Improvement for a Life skills badge. I must complete 2 skill builder aspects, 1 technology aspect, 1 service project and 1 career exploration. Examples of skill builders include painting walls, and creating room accessories, and faux finishing furniture. Examples of technology include learning about cheically created fibers. Service project examples include creaiting "design boxes" for younger girls. Career exploration examples include designing a dream room.

However, I am on a budget of only $25, and only have about two hours with them. I am lost about what to teach these girls. Please help!

8th graders are 3rd yr cadettes. It takes much more than 2 hours to earn an Interest Project (cadettes do not earn badges, that is what Jrs earn). The service project should take 4-6 hr minimum on its own. An IP should take 10-20 hrs to complete.

I assume this is the IP you are working on.

At the cadette level you are an adviser and not a leader. The girls are suppose to decide on what IPs to learn, which requirements they are going to fulfill, how they are gong to fulfill the requirement (including scheduling how many meetings it will take, who is doing what, what the budget is, contacting any outside resources about the service project etc)

The good news is that the the girls can decide to fulfill some of the requirements at home and then report back to the troop. IE you could have 2 girls do reports on technology and 2 do on career exploration. That would fulfill your technology, career exploration and your + any 2 requirement.
If you turn to the introduction section of the IP book (page 7 in the copy that I have)you will see that in addition to the requirements you listed, you also need +2 activities from any category for a total of 7 activities to complete an IP.
