FOMO… It’s the name of a disease, in case you were wondering. Not all of us are affected by it. Unfortunately, I have been plagued with this unrelenting parasite. What does this stand for, you ask? The scientific term is F.O.M.O., which is more commonly known as FEAR OF MISSING OUT. It can become quite debilitating….in the sense that it will grab a hold of you and never let go….feeding on your time and energy. Once in awhile, you {Read More}
New Year Goals: Less of this & More of that
January 20, 2014 by
With the start of a new year, you will typically find most media outlets inundated with “resolution talk”. What goals have you set out to accomplish? How are you going to create a better you?

Friends & Family Friday: Foreword
January 18, 2014 by
I once read somewhere, “Life is a book. Everyday is a new page. Every month is a new chapter. Every year is a new series.” Well….welcome to the foreword of my future.

January 8, 2014 by
My son just turned 7 months. He’s on the verge of crawling and will most likely be taking off within the next month or two. He’s been practicing for quite some time now, but just can’t quite get the hang of it. With every valiant attempt, there is a face plant to some degree. My whole body cringes when he gets close to the hardwood floors….because he doesn’t have the best balance as of yet. But, before you know it….he’ll take {Read More}
