Labor Day Weekend in Arvada, Colorado at Ralston Park Apartments
Celebrate your anti-labor

What is Labor Day? Many of us may enjoy it but do we really understand what Labor Day is?

Labor Day is a time to have some good clean fun.  On Labor Day you can expect that someone you know will be BBQ’n on the grill.  Most employees are off on Labor Day because of what we are actually celebrating.

It’s the anti-labor.  Well, it is.  Labor Day is the one day of the year were we can feel morally okay with being lazy. ~K. Dijon

1st Labor Day September 5th, 1882

Back in the late 1800’s there were many employees who became fed up with the government, their employers and some of the things that were going on with the military.  So what happened was the labor movement was set in motion.  President Grover Cleveland then put reconciliation with Labor as a top political priority. You can read the story of Labor Day on Wikipedia.

Just remember that Labor Day is a day when you can celebrate not putting in labor, lol.  So catch a parade, join a festival or just relax.  You’ve earned it.

Happy Labor Day to Every resident at Ralston Park Apartments

What if a successful life were as easy as three steps?

There are so many different success step processes out there that so many of them seem to be scams and just a waste of time.

How to become wealthy without using your right hand

I mean, these claims are preposterous!   And they mostly point at some quickie solution that will at best patch up a problem for a few moments.  Has the world become afraid of actually working? There is nothing that can replace the result that comes from actually doing what is necessary.

Somewhere along the line you’re just going to have to learn what needs to be done and do it.  That’s the bottom line.  Billy Cox wrote an article on the Three Steps to Change Anything. Lol, after all of that another three steps article right? I know, I’m laughing here as well.  But these steps are catered more towards what you are going to do not what you are going to get.

Take a glance at this article from BillyCoxInternational.com Let us know what you think in the comments box…

Ralston Park Apartments in Arvada

Cheesecake Therapy has been open since 2009 and they are giving Old Town Arvada a sweet tooth.

They have one major goal: to provide a pleasant atmosphere with homemade, lovingly prepared treats, that comfort the souls, and quiet the minds of there dear friends and neighbors.

Sounds to me like the place to be after a long week of office work.  Their wide variety of sweets just makes me feel easy.  Sometimes a little sugar is okay…

I can feel the kid in me coming out now.  Just like a kid in a candy store the Cheesecake Therapy knows how to calm the urges of anxiety with some good dessert.

It could be a good idea to stop by and have yourself a taste.

Hey Ralston Park Apartments,

Have you ever planned a vacation out of town had everything ready from your suitcase and luggage to your hotel or housing accommodations and just plum forgot to book your flight. Oh come on, don’t act like I’m the only one!  This past weekend I planned a trip out of town and waited to the last minute to get my flight but luckily I found a great website with super cheap airplane tickets.

CheapOAir.com & National Car Rental

I booked my flight and rental car through them.  They say that most of the time they have the lowest rates and I’ll agree with them  The worst thing happened with my rental car and through whatever miscommunication (on their part) The car wasn’t booked but thankfully I went through National Rental Car and came out with an SUV for lower rates than I would have payed in the first place.

So check out CheapOair and National Car Rental for your last minute travel reservations.
