Here’s wishing you happy, simple holidays
’Tis the season to be, well, hopefully festive and jolly fits in here but for many of us, it also means the season to be stressed, maxed out financially and depressed. While it is my favorite time of year to be sure, I am also filled with a ton of stress, my blood...
Make time for your No. 1 priority: You
I don’t know about you, but the fall season so far has been a rough one. Between having a busy schedule, not a ton of down time and a few illnesses and injuries mixed in, it has been a bit of a whirlwind. This weekend, I made myself get up extra early so I could have...
Block yourself from phone dependency
Raise your hand if you spend way too much time on your phone, iPad or computer? The other night, I was out to dinner at a restaurant with my son and I noticed that every table around us either had phones sitting in plain sight on their table or the guests were all...
Stay organized, even during busy times

Cheers to summer living
Ahh, sweet summer time. We are finally entering what might just be my favorite season of all — summer time! I love the longer days, the flip-flops and the many visits to the pool and ice cream stand that my family gets to make each summer season. What I love even more...
Warm up to cleaning up
May is finally here and after what seemed like an endless winter — don’t they all? — we have finally entered into lovely spring weather and more chances to get outside and enjoy the outdoors. For most of our homes, after a long winter, many of our outdoor spaces have...
Spring to it and clean with a plan
Ahh, spring is in the air! It has been a long and dreary winter and like you, I am enjoying the warmer temperatures and the greening of the landscapes around me. As much as I love the longer hours of daylight and the boost to my daily Vitamin D intake, the spring...
Are you ready to declutter your home?
By the time are reading this, we will be thinking about warmer temperatures and long-awaited warm temperatures. Whenever the mercury on the thermometer rises and beckons in a new season, I am always inclined to change out my home decor to match that particular season....
