So Upsetting

An elderly man was injured in a hit and run in Hartford, CT and no one stopped to help him. Article here.

Warning: This video is disturbing, but unfortunately real life.



In the article, a witness said he didn't know how to help the man since he was bleeding an unconscious. For those who would react as this man did, here are a few things you SHOULD do:

Instruct someone to call 911
Immediately check the victim to see if they are ok
Comfort the victim
If you know CPR or any first aid, apply those techniques
Instruct someone to run after the cars that hit him to get the license plate
Have cars stop on both sides of the road to create a road block instead of driving around him

Most of all, be present in the situation. This isn't a movie. This isn't a video game. This is a man who was hit and severely injured. One minute and 35 seconds passed and NO ONE helped him.

What is wrong with people?!

House of Destruction

We're redoing our kitchen! Yay! No more orange counter tops!


































Now I'm left with no kitchen and a heck of a lot of dust!

What's the Bzz?

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. It's either update Madeleine's blog or update mine, and quite honestly, most people would rather read hers.

But I did want to let my friends in on this cool things I've signed up for. It's called BzzAgent. It's completely free, and all you have to do is give you opinion (good or bad) on products they send you as well as surveys online or websites you visit.

I've already received a free Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner. All I have to do is use it and talk to people about it and then report "buzz" about what others said. A friend in my mommy group told me about this, and she has received a free sonicare toothbrush, bottles of coppertone sunscreen, 1 Eucerin Lotion, 10 tv guide magazines, a bunch of chapstick, listerine whitening strips, 3 jars of grey poupon, a shower radio, etc.

Anyway, it's totally legit and not some crazy pyramid scheme or anything. I'll probably be posting things here on this blog when I see or use cool things from it. You know, to create bzzz. (Actually I already did it with the Free Rice website).
