My husband runs his own company out of our third bedroom and I’ve tried making it feel more like his own space than just a room with a desk and a bed. Problem is, we don’t have a lot of space to work with, so it quickly turns into a catchall room. The poor guy spends 10-12 hours a day in this place and I go in for 5 minutes and I feel claustrophobic and overwhelmed. God knows how he gets anything accomplished. I am a firm believer in if your space is organized, so is your mind. If it’s…

0Pinterest is probably one of my favorite procrastinating sites. I have a million things to do but I need to go pin 50 recipes that I may never make.

I wanted to make sure there were tons to do for the kids, because…

Do’s & Don’ts for Back to School: 2014-15 Edition
0My baby started preschool yesterday! Cue the heavenly music now. Probably not the kind of reaction you are guessing as my first born is off to school but I am! My husband, on the other hand, is a basket case and a total mess! Every time we talk about it shushes me and changes the subject. So you must be wondering how we fared as we piled in the car as a family and dropped our big Lil Diva off for her first day of school. Well, it went surprisingly well for her! She was so excited she could barely…
How To: Clean Your Dishwasher
0
This week’s ‘How To’ feature is all about the guy who does the brunt of our kitchen duty: The Dishwasher. I never really gave much concern to this appliance until my kitchen started to smell a little funky. I would clean the counters, mop the floor, wipe down the inside of the cabinets, even deodorize the disposal, but we still smelled the funk. So, during one of the many daily internal conversation I have with myself, I asked myself, “Self, what is the one thing I never clean – ding ding ding! My dishwasher.” Maybe he (yes, my dishwasher…

Coffee Is My Kryptonite
0Coffee: That steamy, percolated, caffeine packed goodness that everyone and their mother starts their days with. Everyone, that is, except me. I may seem like the only adult in the world who doesn’t drink coffee. People often scratch their head when they find out this tidbit of info about me and wonder how the hell I function with out a cup of joe to jump start my day; especially with two little ones. Simply put, caffeine is my kryptonite. It makes me shaky, palpultatey (yes, that is a word) and shoots my anxiety through the roof. You may be thinking,…
