Delete Facebook? Are you ready to get rid of Facebook? I’m not deleting any of my accounts, and I am not advocating this approach for clients. BUT, many people are considering dropping Facebook after the Cambridge Analytics scandal. You can always deactivate your account if you just need a break. Then no one will see your account and it will be as if you deleted it, but your data won’t go anywhere and you can still come back when you want to. But what if you’re ready to cut all the ties for good? What if security and privacy concerns…

Snapchat for dummies. If you have kids, chances are they’re on Snapchat. If you’re like a lot of parents, chances are you have no idea what Snapchat is all about.

April showers bring May Flowers right? That’s sometimes one of the only things getting me through April. It can be such dreary rainy grey month of transition. May of course is summer and road trips and here it means opening the pool! That makes me happy. I mean if I can’t ski then I might as well swim and read by the pool. Anyways while waiting out the rain and grey weather you can start setting up your yard and garden. But if stuck inside you will want to print out some of my free and fun printables such as…

This week I was resting in Savasana relaxation pose after my fitness class at the YMCA and my mind was wandering. It’s been a busy, emotional season getting Ainsley registered for high school, and then there was the near concussion mishap for Payton. Too much time at the emergency room of a local hospital. Breathing and doing my corpse pose, my mind wandered. Had I done the right thing signing her up for high school nearby? Will she miss her friends too much? Will her older sister resent having her younger sister at the same school? Then too many clients…
