The new show “Tidying Up” by Marie Kondo featuring her Konmari method has swept the nation since it hit Netflix back on January 1st. I’ve watched it, my friends have watched it, and even though her book caused ripples a few years ago when it first came out, it seems the show has created a whole […]
Car Confessions: Stop Getting “Organized”!
If you haven’t heard anyone mention that they need to get “organized” before they can start their new year’s goals or resolutions, start listening!

That’s Not A Good Excuse!
I’m a firm believer that there is a difference between an “excuse” and a “reason”. Being sick and taking a day off to get better is a reason not to do something, not an excuse. Saying you can’t participate in an activity because you aren’t coordinated – that is an excuse, and not a good […]
