Why buying a nursing bra is okay. Sometime last year I was in Target shopping for the ever-so-gracious bra that I seemed to either never fill out, or never fit in. There was always something wrong with them. For example, why is the wire sticking out of the bottom? Why is there even a wire in my bra? Who makes these? Did this person have big boobs? I bet this person had no boobs at all. Do... Read More »
Hi, I am Kristin Cogan and I am a wife and stay home mom to my 3 1/2 year old son and 14 month old daughter. I wasn’t “looking” for a part-time job but I was introduced to Rodan & Fields by a few of my good friends. But, after hearing that I could partner with the doctors who created Proactiv Solution, didn’t have to host parties or stock product, and make my own hours, all... Read More »
A while back, I wrote a post about doing something for yourself. I mentioned that after a pretty shitty year, I had decided to do something fun for myself and had signed up for the Blog U Conference. I knew absolutely no one who was going and knew basically nothing about it, but the website had pictures of ladies wearing really ugly prom dresses, and that looked sort of like something I’d enjoy, s...

Working in an acute psychiatric hospital for 14 years as a Registered Nurse, I could not believe what the human mind and body can endure. I heard horrible stories about parents selling their children for drugs and alcohol. Abuses of the mind and body from allegedly love ones. I remember a man that was in his 30’s who was fully functioning and then he snapped and became a “monkey”... Read More »
Recently I flew to Hawaii for spring break to go see my family. While on the eleven hour flight I noticed some things that made me ask, “Are you serious?”. On the flight from Charlotte to Dallas, nothing went wrong. Everything seemed fine. I assumed that the next flight would be the same way. I assumed wrong. On the flight from Dallas to Kahului, I sat horizontal from a couple from New... Read More »
When someone dies it is easy for us to lock our memories away, thinking that it is just too hard to talk about them anymore. Often times, we tell ourselves that it didn’t happen and that they are just on a very long vacation…a vacation that they will never return from. We can never tell ourselves that we will never see them again because we cannot believe that its true. When someone ... Read More »
So I was kinda shocked when a few people I sold eye cream to, told me they had never used eye cream before – and they were in their 50s! I started using it in college! Well, a few of the eye cream virgins woke up with red irritated eyes that were puffy. Turned out they were practically putting the eye cream in (or too close to) their eye! So, I feel the need to help educate on how... Read More »
After the incredible response from our “Love, Loss and Forgiveness” WIRL yesterday, I thought it would be fitting to share the sermon given from Forest Hill Pastor, David Chadwick, on the day of the Eddings family tragedy. His words came straight from the heart and ring so true. When I attended the church service last Sunday, David reiterated many of the same powerful words and it was ... Read More »
