Zesty Fresh

April 2011
N*aked Lady Sale 
  
Hi, it's Shelley,  

Chief Quality of Life Specialist here at Rich Chicks. Just wanted to do a quick recap on how great the Naked Lady Clothing Exchange/Sale went!

 

It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon, and the turnout was great... Families Helping Each Other was very appreciative of all the great donations, and we were so happy to help everyone find fabulous outfits! Thanks so much to all who attended and volunteered.

 

The next sale/swap dates are already set - the Sassy Summer Sale will be held on Sunday, June 12th and the Holiday Extravaganza will be Sunday October 23rd. 

 

Mark your calendars now - you won't want to miss these!!

Five Zesty Fresh Spring Ideas

 Spring

In case you didn't know, Rich Chicks' home office is in Minnesota.  Minnesota has had a long snowy winter and a scruffy start to spring. Our staff proclaimed that April's theme should be zesty fresh to honor the feeling of spring--one they know is out there somewhere!.

Nothing makes you feel richer faster than a bright sunny day and a fresh outlook. To celebrate the new found bliss of longer days and a bright sunny evening it may be time to look at how you are living zesty and gather some fresh ideas how to LIVE RICH!  Here are five tips from our staff:

  1. Get outside and put some pavement under your feet! Take a walk, ride your bike-mobilize. Exercise automatically gets the brain tossing out some endorphins that will uplift and delight.
  2. Take a long look at your living space and ask yourself "What does this space say about my well being?" If you have unmanaged spaces you may need a fresh coat of declutter. Pick a space and start pitching!
  3. Do some spring cleaning on your wallet. Take a fresh look at what your electronic auto-payments are and if they are working, look at your savings plan and definitely look at health care costs. 
  4.  Zesty is fun. Make it your mission add some spice to your life--try new foods, see new movies, check out some cool art. Be inspired by life.
  5. Tend your garden of resources. Ask yourself who you should connect with.  It is a good time to reconnect with those who give you a fresh outlook on your own life.

The Secret Society of Money Part One
Four things have been banging around in my head lately: the Wal-Mart law suit, pay equity, the recently released White House report "Women in America: Indicators of Social and Economic Well-Being" and Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. I'm not sure how they are all related yet, but I have a sense of déjà vu with a trace of growing outrage. I know it has something to do with the secrecy surrounding money and wages.
