I’m just going to come out and say it – I want to be a trophy wife. Now don’t go getting all fired up. I’m not anti-fem. I’m not quitting my job, bleaching my hair and getting “a little work done.” Let’s back up a step… According to Wikipedia, a …

I am a clock-watcher. A planner to the core, I spend a great deal of my time each day planning out my day, and the days to come. In fact, in addition to my iPhone calendar, I use a good ol’ fashioned paper calendar, too, with each week broken down …

I was recently at a conference in Las Vegas for “internet geeks” and the topic was networking - as in with people, not computers. Chad Hymas was the keynote speaker. I’ll admit, I’m a sucker for motivational speakers. Maybe it’s because, as my husband says, I see most things through …

I’ve been drowning in a sea of spit-up. I’m a second time mother – this spit-up thing was something that I felt like I was well prepared for. What I wasn’t prepared for was a battle of pride – and so far, the spit-up is winning. I’ve been called many …
