To paraphrase R.E.M. ~ It was The End of My World as I Knew It.. and I’ll Be Fine

I have struggled with GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) and LPR  (laryngopharyngeal reflux) for many years. My specialists in Rhode Island, Michigan and New York had prescribed every medication (both prescription and  over the counter) on the market; numerous X-rays, CAT scans, ultrasounds; changed my diet; scoped my throat regularly; sent me to vocal chord therapy, strapped me to a table the...

Bedtime is the best time

Bedtime is the best time

Bed time is the best time…and get your mind out of the gutters people!! I’m not referring to what I’m SURE a lot of you are thinking about. I’m talking about that quiet time with your family, in my case…my husband and our 2 year old daughter. Every single evening is pretty simple and some may say ‘boring’ at our house.

How to Save Entire Facebook Photo Albums in Minutes!

I owe my friend Tia… big time! She found a GEM today and I’m so excited to share it with all of you! I’m constantly downloading entire photo albums from groups on Facebook to share in other groups. Mostly this is done when I see an awesome idea on one of our Thirty-One Director or Consultant groups and I want to share the ideas with my team.

Breaking the Cycle: Grocery Saving Tips

Breaking the Cycle: Grocery Saving Tips

I am constantly trying to find ways to trim our family budget.  About twice a year I attempt to hack away at unnecessary spending and cut out anything that will help the household bottom line.  There comes a point in everyone’s budget where it is not possible to reduce anymore items from monthly expenses.  Once you hit this threshold you are forced to get creative. Even though I handle the f... Read More »
