There are some excellent articles available on the web about reducing stress that you might want to take a few minutes out of your business schedule and read. One I was reading was from the Readers Digest entitled: 79 Instant Stress Busters. Some of these include chasing your dog around the backyard; hold a sleeping baby; take a walk in the park; pop some bubble-wrap; chew some cinnamon gum; and much more. Take a look and try to relax, get plenty of sleep and drunk plenty of water. Simple solutions that may help you this “silly” season.

Jacksonville Beaches Area has some terrific parks. We have a listing of them here at: http://jacksonvillesbeaches.info/wordpress/beaches-services/jacksonville-beaches-area-parks/
These parks are FREE and open to everyone and open from dawn to dark. Please exercise respect for the park and put your trash in the bins, if you take your pet do the pooper-scooper thing, and finally respect others right to be there.

Another thing that always makes a difference this season is to volunteer for an organization you believe in. There are lots of people out there who need help and this holiday season is about GIVING. Not just about giving presents but giving of ourselves. Our family is not going to be getting many presents this year because times are hard and we need to focus on others rather than ourselves. If you want to make a difference and teach your children a lesson about really giving then go to: http://www.volunteerjacksonville.org/index.htm

We will start things off by promoting one the new businesses serving the Beaches Area in Anderson Air Systems, LLC.  They have a website now and is run by uncle.  He is just getting started in this business on his own but has worked in the Air Conditioning & Heating field for a very long time.  So check out the website and if you need a new Heating & Air Conditioning system installed or repaired I would recommend him.  He has been servicing our Heating & Air Conditioner for over 15 years.

If you know of any kind of great repair or service business that you would recommend then please post a comment.  We are all looking for a way to get our stuff repaired or serviced and would appreciate a recommendation to save money and to ensure that we are getting what we pay for.  However, please make sure you would honestly recommend this service or repair company to your friends and relatives!
