March is National Eye Donor Month! Do you check “yes” to organ donation when renewing your license? Why or why not? One day, when my kid sister was 16 and about to get her driver’s license, she was getting ready for school sitting in the bathroom sink, as we both always did. My mom asked her why she was deciding to be an organ donor. “We don’t need that stuff when we&... Read More »
If you are like me (someone who loves food, especially snacks) you probably have a lot of mess going on in your pantry. Mine has always looked like a tornado ran through it. It’s just pure unorganized chaos in there every time the door is opened. My husband and I have always tried to keep it neat. We tried organizing it in categories: pasta, soups and mixes on one shelf, cereal, granola bars, ... Read More »
So why do I love the workout system T25? Well, because it works! Nobody had to pay, bribe, or ask me to say that – it’s just the truth! If you don’t know what T25 is, it’s a collection of about 15 DVD workouts that come with a schedule to follow. Each workout is 25 minutes long (hence the 25!) and it was created by the Insanity guy, Shaun T. There are two phases that... Read More »
If you are a Denver Broncos fan, you are probably pretty upset with Julius Thomas heading to the Jacksonville Jaguars. But Thomas wants all of his fans to know, it is nothing personal.

He was the young guy on the roster, so he ha... Read More »
A friend’s Mom helped me out big time on this piece. A friend of hers was looking to sell this beautiful antique buffet and I was lucky enough that she thought of me! It looks like it’s in pretty decent shape but don’t let the photo fool you… The top was a hot mess, the bottom drawer didn’t close, both side doors didn’t shut and the top two drawers were...

Dear Taco Bell, Your incessant commercials on my Pandora every morning finally peaked this prego’s interest enough for me to give you a chance. It’s a mistake I will never make again. I feel like I’ve been catfished. Your chicken biscuit taco was more like a chicken flavored hashbrown wrapped in cardboard. You’ve ruined my day and now I don’t know that I can ever trus...

This is my story of what motivated me. I felt like I didn’t have a choice, this needed to come out. What motivated you? What’s something that you didn’t pick, but instead IT picked YOU? After my husband proposed I remember feeling blissfully happy; sharing the news, celebrating with friends and family, and walkin’ on clouds, viewing everything through my bling’d out, rose-...

When I am passionate about something, you know it. Most of the time my friends and family will say, Calm down! as I’m talking because I get so worked up. I guess that’s the Type-A coming out in me. Anyway, I feel pretty passionately about what I’m about to say. I was a teacher for 6+ years before becoming a stay-at-home mom and I have some thoughts on this issue. And, if you star...
