My Psoriasis is only skin deep. My skin won’t stop me because… It’s just skin and it’s only surface deep. I am beautiful, even with my pink/white spots. My daughter looks up to me and I need to be a strong role model for her and teach her that it’s inner beauty that counts. Here’s my story: Just prior to my first Psoriasis outbreak, I was at a peak... Read More »
I woke up with a frown on my face. Looked out the window, saw the rain, and questioned what reasoning I had to get out of bed. I sluggishly put on my t-shirt and faded blue jeans. Not caring about what I looked like, I paired my outfit with some broken sandals tied together by a thin black string. I wondered what might be so different about the day when so far, everything was as somber as usual on... Read More »
Kobe Bryant shares what it’s really like to be a competitor who is forced to sit the bench this year and watch his colleagues play the game he loves. He talks about his mentality, his way of thinking, his drive to be the best, and even goes on to say, “I refuse to change what I am. A lion has to eat. Run with me or run from me”.

Guys, I’m not gonna lie. Going to a conference is hard work. But if you’re dedicated, like me, this is what you have to do. This weekend I went to the BlogU blogging conference where they run a pretty tight ship. They keep you going the whole damn time.

I’m sure that many others will blog about the amazingness that was Blog U 2015 this past weekend. Blog U was a great conference which packed about a month of information into 48 hours. I got excellent information which will improve TND, help us expand our reach, AND help us chart the next step beyond. I highly recommend it for any blogger looking to up their game. But I’m not going to talk about a... Read More »
I had the privilege of knowing Andrew Hunter Murray. He was a very special young boy and although being confined to a wheelchair and requiring constant supervision, Andrew was always a very happy child. His eyes would light up a room, and his smile was infectious. You could be in the worst mood, spend no more than 1 minute Andrew, and be laughing right along with him. Unfortunately, at 6 ...

All moms need support sometimes, specially when we´re feeling down or lonely or overburdened with the toddlers and their devilish ways. Sometimes all we want is a hug, a walk and talk, a cup of coffee and some laughs, or maybe just a sleep in. But in some cases we are far from our families, we don´t have our own moms that can help out and take the kids for a few hours or an old friend with kids of... Read More »
The last thing I needed on the day before Christmas school break and while I’m trying to finish holiday shopping online AND pack for our trip to see family is to find blue crayon in my dryer ALL OVER MY KIDS’ CLOTHES. Lucky me, that is exactly what I got this morning! Ugh. Yep, a blue crayon, and a green one, I think, somehow got past me in the laundry and ended up going through the washer and int... Read More »
