I like to assess my life every once in a while. Do a spring cleaning of a bad habit, a lazy chore, or a self damaging thought process. Things have been tough this year so I am behind on my self improvements.
The other day I was talking to a friend and I found myself saying, “I used to be…” quite often. I used to have time for me. I used to have...

A huge Apple fan, finally gets a MacBook!
I have been a fan of Apple for quite some time, but my hubby (IT guy) always seems to put it off. Now that I am thinking about it, I understand his hesitation. If one family member gets a Mac, then the others will soon be asking for one. My daughter has already tried convincing us that she HAS to have one, because that is what they use at school. In addition, she had one assignment that they were unable to sync and it had to be done on a Mac. So, my sweet daughter gave me a choice.
I could get up earlier (she knows I am not a fan of that) and she could use one at the school OR I could just go ahead and buy a MacBook. Based on the beginning of this post,...

Earlier this week, a package came in addressed to my hubby. He mentioned it contained my Valentine’s Day present. I was impressed since he typically goes out in the afternoon and comes back with a card, flowers and chocolate. Although, I have to admit, on several occasions he has surprised me. One year, he gave me some large hoop diamond earrings that had been on my wish list for over a year. I know that when he orders a gift, it has been...

I don’t know why, but I am still surprised when I find adults behaving as though they are still in high school.
When I read Karen Jones (Jones to the Grindstone) post that addresses adult cyberbullying, I asked her permission to share it with my readers. As an Internet Safety Advocate and mother of two tweens, I hear cyberbullying...

For many children, back to school means back to bullying. We asked Ryron and Rener Gracie, creators of Gracie Bullyproof™– a confidence development program for kids, for some advice on how to help kids stay safe from this pervasive malady.
Bullying is the leading cause of depression and low self-esteem for children. The National Education Association reports 160,000 children miss school every day for fear of bullying. Indeed, every child is a potential target...

School has started and if you have a daughter, chances are, she will have to deal with friend drama. She may be the one creating it, on the receiving end or in the middle of it.
Is your daughter prepared to deal with the drama that comes with friendship? Does she have a plan or strategy that will help her deal with friendship issues? Will she have the confidence to express herself in a healthy way? If not, she will have a difficult time staying out of the drama and maintaining friendships.
