Building Community
For the next 2 weeks my kids and I don’t have access to our home from 9 am – 4:30 pm. There’s construction on our front porch that we need to stay away from. So we’ve been hanging out at Barnes and Nobles after school. And I got hold of “The Marketing Plan Handbook” by [...]
How are you? I hope you’re doing well today. You know, lately I’ve been doing more soul-searching and I realize – I think a lot. Thinking is great for planning and being sensible.

Being Thankful is quite an art. Sometimes the inspiration to be thankful comes easily; other times it doesn’t and it’s okay! What I’ve found is it’s a lot like exercising & working out.
