Have you ever heard of the saying, “take care of yourself first, because if you are not taken care of, you will not be able to care for your children”? I have heard this saying many, many times and it rings through in my head every single day. I believe it. It is true. If I am not taking care of myself, it will definitely be a lot more difficult to care for my family. AND if I am not demonstrating that I care to take care of myself, what kind of role model am I setting for my children? … Continue reading →

Fructis Damage Eraser

Admittedly, this happens more often than I would like. Because I work from home, I tend not to get all “dolled up” (do I EVER really get truly dolled up, no, that isn’t my style) too often, but when … Continue reading →
