This post brought to you by Sleep Number. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Penelope’s Oasis. I don’t get enough sleep. I just don’t. When I read that Americans get an average of 6.7 hours of sleep a night (below the recommended 8 hours) I was frankly jealous. I think I get […]

When I first graduated from college, I spent a month going on interviews in search of my first job. I actually enjoyed going on interviews, and was offered every job, sometimes during the interview. I credit my […]
These are awesome tips. I will definitely be prepared next time 😉
All great advice. I interview a lot of people and I have to say the biggest fault they have is not doing any research before coming in for an interview. It doesn’t take much effort to look a company or a position up on the internet.
Good to hear that Tracfone is donating to Dress for Success! Very good cause!
These are really great tips! Interviews make me really nervous.
It helps me relax a lot to feel like I’m prepared. Researching the company ahead of time would be a great way for me to feel knowledgable.
Great tips for interviews! My husband has been looking for a new job recently, and has been doing so much research on the companies he’s interviewing with. It will all pay off soon, I’m sure!
There are 93 days of summer, and each should be a blast for kids. Whether exploring and learning new things together, or having fun right outside your front door, parents should encourage their kids to enjoy every beautiful summer day…and join in on the fun! Here is a collection of 50 fun (and sometimes educational) […]
I love this! It’s easy for the kids to get bored over this summer, so lists like this would keep us full of ideas!
I have been doing a summer break challenge where I attempt to do one fun thing per day with my kids over summer vacation for the last four years. I will definitely have to incorporate some of these fun activities this year!
Wow this is pretty awesome. I’m really looking forward to summer and now there will be plenty to do! so this will be a great one!
What an awesome checklist! Even though I work from home, kiddo will be spending the summer between her grammie, her moms and her grandmothers. We live in the country and she wouldn’t have much fun cooped up with me all day while I am trying to work. So, our weeks will flip flop. We’ll get her on weekends.
These are all really great ideas. Summer is just around the corner!
This is definitely a great list to whip out for those “I’m bored!” Summer days! I hope to build lots and lots of sandcastles this year!
these are all fantastic ideas for summer fun especially number one have a water balloon fight. I can’t wait to do some of these things with my family, I think it’s just as much fun for grown ups 2
Great list for summer! I will have to add some of these to our summer bucket list!
Having a check list seems like a fun idea! It’s like a summer bucket list!
Sometimes I run out of things to do in the summer! It’s nice to have all these ideas in case that happens.
I hope to have a great summer with my kids. Just wish I had the time.
I’ve been working on my summer check list with the family. These are some great ideas!
Great ideas! I love that you put them in a handy printable! I’ll be taping this up for me to refer to!
Yes to all of these! We are so ready for summer and this is the perfect list for summer fun!
These are definitely some great ideas. I’m going to print this out and keep it for the summer.
These are wonderful ideas! I can’t believe that summer will be here before you know it!
What a great list of ideas! My son wrote a summer bucket list this past Friday of some things he really wants to do during his summer break, too! Thanks for this!
I can’t wait for the summer. those are some great options.
This is a great list of ideas. So many things I want to do. Thanks for the printable.
These definitely sound like some fun ideas for a great summer! The printable looks great! Thanks for sharing.
I will definitely be doing a ton of these with my husband and our kids!
I cook for a family of four every day, and some days even more, so preparing good meals for my family can take a great deal of time if I make everything from scratch. Making dinner doesn’t have to be stressful, and on weekdays when I really don’t have time to spend hours a day […]
This post is written and sponsored by U.S. Bank. Seems you’ve got a bit of a dilemma on your hands. That big project you’ve had in your head for what feels like forever is now actually coming together on paper and just waiting to be started. You have the time to do it and – […]
I definitely do not get enough sleep every night. I think my mattress is the culprit. I wake up multiple times during the night with crazy back pain. I keep having the “we NEED a new bed” talk with my husband. And while he agrees, we can’t agree on what kind/brand to get. I am going to discuss Sleep Number with him. I really like that he can get the kind of mattress he want and the same for me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Penelope!
I would love to have a Sleep Number bed, especially since I prefer my mattress to be soft and warm and my husband likes things more firm and cool. Thankfully I at least get enough rest each night.
I have always wanted to buy a Sleep Number bed. They look so comfortable, it would be nice not to wake up sore.
The best night of sleep I ever had was on a Sleep Number in one of the hotels we were staying in. I’d love to have one of my own!
All three of my children slept through the night yesterday, and it was heavenly. I would love to get a good night’s sleep on a regular basis.
I think my body is programmed to only get 7 hours of sleep. I would love the 8th hour of sleep.
I would love a Sleep Number bed for myself! Regular mattresses are never exactly comfortable enough for me!
Those Sleep Number beds look so comfy! I think they would be great to sleep on! I have never tried one, but I would love to!
I have noticed I haven’t been sleeping as well lately. I’m thinking we may need to invest in a Sleep Number.
I’m really interested to know what my sleep number is! I have to think it’s one of the higher numbers.
I slept on a Sleep Number bed on my honeymoon! I’ve wanted one ever since! That was 7 years ago!
my husband has been asking for one of these beds for years! Love the dual air technology
I would LOVE a Sleep Number bed. I never get a good night sleep, and think this mattress would be a huge help.
I have always been so interested in a Sleep Number bed. I will have to go try one out. I think it would be perfect for me.
I’ve heard so much about Sleep Number. I want to try one!
I would love a sleep number! I have heard great things about them and I bet they would help with my snoring.
I am looking at getting a new one. I will be checking this out.
Sounds like our bed could be a great fit for you and your husband, Rebecca. 🙂 We hope you’ll have a chance to stop by soon and check them out! Let us know if we can help find a local store in your area or answer any questions for you in the meantime.
Did you know we also have a DualTemp™ Layer that lets you set either side to a warmer or cooler setting, Marcie? That could come in handy if you and your husband have different temperature needs when sleeping. Let us know if we can answer any questions for you.
We’ll look forward to seeing you, Debbie! Let us know if we can answer any questions for you before you stop in.
We can help with that, Amanda! Stop by next time you’re in the area and we’ll walk you through our beds and help you find one that’s perfect for you.
