Photos:  In a world where the younger generations are continually taking selfies – which honestly just amazes me; I have never enjoyed my photo being taken, never mind sharing it with other people and the world…  Due to this, I am usually the one taking the photos.  This can be a good thing, but I […]

Memories:  All of us have memories; some are great, some are amazing, some are tough and some are ones we would like to forget.  Either way, they are part of what makes us who we are today.  Sometimes we focus too much on the ones we wish we could forget and forget about the good […]

Volunteering:  Have you taken the opportunity to volunteer to assist in something?  There are so many businesses, places, organizations, non-profits, and senior’s homes that utilize and need people to volunteer their time.  If you have time, it is well worth the effort of volunteering.  I started volunteering when I was 12 at a Senior’s Home […]

Kids Incentives:  What is your kid’s currency?  What that means is – what motivates your children?  When raising kids, there are times when it is useful to use an incentive program; potty training, cleaning their room, assisting with family chores, even good behavior sometimes.  There are numerous reasons to enjoy the benefits of incentives.    However, […]

Bucket List:  Have you ever truly taken the time to do a bucket list?  This is something we talked about regularly in my family and my parents were very good at making a lot of my grandparent’s bucket list items possible.  As I got older, I recognized that not many people discussed these kinds of […]

Knowledge is Key?  No, Applied Knowledge is key!  There has always been that saying that knowledge is key…it is only key if you actually utilize that knowledge and put it to use – meaning applying it.  We all learn things – usually every day or couple of days there is something that you didn’t know […]
