ikea ottawa sound absorption.jpg
My first visit to the megladonic ikea store in Ottawa. Have parked in the covered parking space and the sound absorption application on the ceiling deadens the noise pollution normally experienced in suck concrete spaces. This must have cost a lot, but it is a briLliant, small detail that contributes to the useability of a space. Kudos to Ikea.

Ontario Honda Dealers Help Carleton Students Beat the Winter Blues
Yes, it is the Winter Blues time of year again. January is behind us, March is just around the corner and we can smell spring in the air, again. And the answer to the Winter Blahs comes from an unlikely place, the thoughtful people at Dow Honda on Carling Avenue. What better answer to the cold trek to school or work than to get onboard the Shotgun Shuttle in a Honda Odyssey provided by Dow Honda, along with a cup of hot chocolate!
What you may not know is that Carleton University was founded in 1942, in response to the need to help provide the young people in Ottawa, many of whom had taken on jobs to cope with the pressures of the Depression, with an opportunity to continue their formal education.
Meanwhile, Dow Honda has been gracious enough to loan a warm and comfy vehicle to the Shotgun Show in order that we may provide a well-needed service to some of the Carleton students
Thanks again to Dow Honda at 845 Carling Avenue in Ottawa and at 613 237 2777 for the generous use of their Honda Odyssey and hot chocolate. They are the premier Ottawa Dealer in Ottawa. Call them and let them know you enjoyed the show.

Now that the Shotgun Shuttle is off and running, I am starting to see Honda Odyssey’s all over. Great van, great price. And it only took me 31 hours to learn how to spell it properly!

Interior Decorating in Ottawa with Sarah Kidder
“Interior design is personal,” claims Sarah Kidder of SK Designs. Whether you are in Ottawa, Kanata, Nepean, Orleans or points in between, it is a given fact. And because it is personal, it defies criticism and transcends opinion. That is a given, although not everyone observes that rule. What you may not know is that the better the relationship you have with your decorator or designer, the more likely it is that you will get your stamp on the design, with a little support where you need it the most.
During a consultation it is imperative to ask very personal questions. "How does your dinner routine work?" for a kitchen project or "Do you take showers or baths?" for a bathroom renovation. These important questions help whittle away the excess assumptions and carve into the heart of the matter, so that when you are left alone to re-enjoy your home, it is as inspiring and fulfilling as you wished it to be.
For starters, changing your wall colour is the fastest and easiest way to transform your space! New paint can change the entire feel and mood of your room, and is a budget-friendly way to re-decorate! Colour consultations usually last 1-3 hours and quality consultants have access to cheaper paint prices through industry contacts.
If you are not sure where to start with your bedroom makeover or how to accessorize your shelves or where to hang your art, you are not alone. With so many options and opinions, it can become overwhelming very quickly. Design consults are handy when you just need some advice and ideas and often they can combine their skills to give you a colour consult.
If you are selling your home, then you should be aware that Home Staging has been proven to sell your home faster and get you a higher return! A usual Home Staging Consultation lasts 1-3 hours and consists of a walk-through. Easy suggestions might include new paint colours, re-hanging or re-arranging art and de-cluttering spaces. Essentially the key is to make the home inviting, but leave enough room for prospective buyers to envision themselves within it.
Sarah’s design philosophy is simple: It's your home, so it should reflect your style, taste, wants and needs. She understands that her job is to give you fresh ideas and help you achieve your vision! As a 20-something wife and mother of two, I understand the challenges of designing and decorating a space that is durable, practical – and still looks good!
Sarah Kidder is a Certified Interior Decorator who is an Accredited Member of CDECA and owns SK Design in Ottawa, Ontario. She can be reached at 613 355 4889, @decoratedesign on Twitter or by email at sarah@sarah-kidder-designs.com.

So you Tapped Out on your New years resolutions…
So, you tapped out on your New Years resolution. Just an FYI, over ninety percent of New Years resolutions crash in flames. Obviously a New Years resolution is not the correct motivation. What you really need to uncover is the real reason why you wanted to make a change it in the first place.
At least once every week the average person makes one resolution to improve themselves, to get back into shape or to feel better about themselves. We think of it when our clothes feel a little tight or when we find ourselves pausing for air after a flight of stairs or when we have trouble getting up to speed after lunch.
At those moments we are aware of ourselves in ways that do not make us feel good about who we are, and we make a silent vows to make a change. Our bodies are talking to us, and deep in our minds we know that things are slipping. It is a part of the human condition. Let’s face it, there are a large number of factors that sap our strength. These include the weather, work, school, families, girlfriends, boyfriends, and sometimes all of them at the same time. We use them as excuses to avoid getting in shape, when we should be using them as the reasons TO get in shape.
A New years resolution is about telling everyone else that you are going to make a change. But true motivation is a pact with yourself to improve your well being. If you have done a little internal work, then you know what I have said is true. Now all that you have to do is act upon it.
The obvious benefits are that you will feel better about yourself, you will be able to fight disease more efficiently, you will have fun, you will be stronger, you be more in control, you will be more confident, you will have more stamina, you will meet new people with similar interests, you will, you will, you will. You will be prepared to live your life fully, every single day.

I love the cleverness of Branding in the 21st Century. Today I am sporting the Branding of www.socialcatalyst.ca in the form of socks.
Subtle, a hint of color and somewhat clandestine. Am waiting for the matching boxer shorts. 😉
