So New Year’s Eve is today, and you want to ring in the new year with a bottle of Champagne.

Just remember that doing a bad job of opening the champagne can ruin the whole thing. Keep a few things in mind:

Get a kitchen towel and the bottle of champagne. If the bottle is wet, dry it off with the towel.

1. Remove the wire cage and foil covering the cork.

2. Point the bottle away from everyone, including yourself. It is under tremendous pressure, so it can be a dangerous missile.

3. Put the dish towel over the top of the bottle and, with your hand under the towel, grasp the cork firmly.

4. Hold the cork steady and turn the bottle. The cork will slowly disengage.
Listen for the satisfying pop. You should get a quiet pop or woosh sound as the cork comes off. It shouldn’t really spill much unless it’s been shaken, but the towel with catch any drips while keeping the cork from flying off.

5. When the cork comes out, keep the towel over the bottle opening for a moment to preserve the gas and the champagne.

6. Pour into champagne flutes and enjoy.

Although the problems may be slightly debated, pollution does cause a big impact on the world around us. The actual impact is not entirely known or understood, but each human should make strides to lower the pollution that they are responsible for. This means that one member of the earth should try as hard as they can to lower the amount of energy that they use each day. By charging each individual with this task, we should see quite the overall reduction in power consumption.

Moving is never fun. Moving with an animal is an absolute catastrophe. Unless of course, you can get someone to take your animal while you relocate. In my case, that wasn’t a choice. I first needed to find a moving truck rental company. I had to move cross country and I could not do this without one. It took me a while to find one that met my needs. I looked on the Internet for cheap moving trucks and the results were too many. I ended up locating one after seeing a billboard that read, “truck rentals for moving”. I called the number and they had the lowest price and exactly the size of truck that I needed.

A lot of people who have decided to be a nurse early in their career decide to attend an LPN or LVN program. Then later in their career maybe they then starting thinking they want to make more money or what a little more respect. No matter what type of nurse you are it can be hard work. But let’s face it an RN will make more money and likely have more respect then an LPN or LVN. That does not mean LPNs or LVNs are not needed or appreciated, they are of course. If this is hitting home for you maybe you have started to think about an lpn to rn program out there that are available? A lot of nursing are doing it, but it does bring up some questions you need to think about.

If not you do have time to do something about it, even if you have been working for decades.
