What does every mom want? More sleep! Moms everywhere – new moms, seasoned moms, and yes, even empty-nester moms – all would love to have more sleep. It’s a simple fact of life. Sleep really is the one gift every mom wants! I was once known to say that sleep is over-rated. Thank goodness I …
Christmas countdown is on! I am feeling pretty good with all that I have accomplished so far. I am by no means completely ready for the holidays and the convergence of kids all coming home, but I am steadily getting there. I actually started wrapping gifts this year in October! This was a first for …
Shopping this year has been a new experience for me. I have been to Target and Costco one time each since last March, and I have not stepped into any clothing or shoe store during this time frame. My shopping has been very limited to say the least! I do visit grocery stores, gas stations, …
