New Blog:  Tips to help when you are sick!   FOOD POISIONING...   Not a lot you can do.  You want to be able to get all of it out of your system.  So, don't take meds that make you stop throwing up.  It's better to do it and be done with the food that made you sick.  The important part is to NOT become dehydrated!  Drink a Sports Drink or watered down juice.  DO NOT drink plain water.  The water will bounce right back up and out!  When you finally feel like eating, try the BRAT diet:  Bananas, Rice, Applesauce and Toast.

Blog:  Prepare Your Own Taxes!   Going back to school   Improving your resume by going back to school will put you in a better  position when the job market turns in your favor.  Meanwhile, you can probably collect some tax breaks to help offset your  expenses. The two most valuable breaks are the American Opportunity tax credit
(worth up to $2,500 per year for the first four years in an undergraduate degree  program) and the Lifetime Learning tax credit (worth up to $2,000 per year for  graduate school and nondegree classes).

Blog:  Prepare Your Own Taxes!  Are you prepared to spend almost a full day filling out your tax return? And
we're talking a 24-hour period, not a standard eight-hour work day. That's the  Internal Revenue Service's estimate of how long it will take the average  taxpayer to complete Form 1040.  
Sure, that includes the time it takes to pull together and sort through all  your tax receipts and records, learn about the Form1040, decipher its  instructions, copy the completed form and send it in. But even discounting these  ancillary duties, the IRS figures it still will take more than five hours just  to fill out this most popular income tax return. 
If you have additional schedules or tax credits to file, you might be  measuring your tax time by the calendar instead of the clock.  (taken from:  money.msn.com)
