Converting to Carry-On
I am a self-admitted over-packer. I grew into this identity for many reasons including but not limited to my penchant for over-planning and over-preparing. Also, I have a tendency to be a hermit when I travel, so once I’m in my room, I want to make sure I have all my favorite things and I…

Eloise Had It Right
When I am staying at a hotel, it’s because I have traveled somewhere to do something. I have a speaking engagement, a conference, a wedding or sports event to attend, or something that likely prevents me from having a good night’s sleep while I am not in my own bed–no matter how comfortable the bed…

Did You Know This?
I didn’t know this. I had read about the “j” feature, but figured out the “K” and “L” feature while typing around trying to remember the “J” feature. What other Facebook helpers do you know? Share them b/c this absolutely blew my mind.

Refusing to Take the Ditch
This weekend was rough. Not going to lie–I was off track quite a bit. I participated in a huge vendor event for two days. 14 hours total standing on concrete. No time to really sit or relax. It provided a HUGE boost to my Scentsy business, but not so great for sticking to any type…

Whole 30 — Day 04
It was a nice Sunday for my oldest, the pooches and I. We woke to the awesome smell of marinara that bubbled away most of the night. We both slept super late–we totally deserved it! Ha. Our plans were pretty subdued–she needed new school pants, so we had a trip to the mall on our…

Holiday Hangover
As the first month of the new year draws to a close, I realize that my enthusiasm for 2013 has not translated into much progress. Oh, sure, I revamped my bedroom by closing my fashion museum [my clothing no longer lies about as if on display], purging my closets & finding a bunch of clothes…

Style Made Easy
I stumbled upon this two-and-a-half minute video showcasing the Grace Adele Style System and loved it! Demonstrates exactly why I love this product and why so many people have been visiting my consultant website to learn more. So looking forward to building my teams across all Scentsy Family brands in 2013. It is just…

Next Level Neutrals
Every few seasons, you’ll hear “X is the new black” where X is the latest and greatest color that everyone clamors to don. I think we all know, however, that black never loses its top status as a go-to hue. Black makes a strong statement, but can be equally feminine. That’s one thing I love…

Why Let Winter Wear Be Boring?
I spent all Saturday and most of Sunday at an outdoor soccer tourney for my youngest. As I sat there in the whipping, biting wind being pelted by sleet and praying for even a glimpse of the sun, I reconsidered my answer to the proverbial, “Would you rather be hot or cold?” question. I always…

Sassy Librarians Unite
I first worked in a library when I was in junior high. Volunteering at my school library led to a high school job at our local Carnegie Library. When I moved to Dayton, I ended up working in the Archives and behind the circulation desk at my university’s library. I also spent time working for…
