Yesterday I tried two new things. I took a F.I.T. class taught by Michele Canon and Sandra Dasaad and I “edited” my first video for the website. Click the video above to see what this story is all about. I was extremely excited to take this mom-oriented outdoor fitness class. I have known Michele and her husband for 10 years now.

Since I plan to release my online baby book this year, I have to commit at least 8 hours a week to finish content, design and business details of the book. (more…)
If I Had My Life to Live Over
by Erma Bombeck
The following was written by the late Erma Bombeck If I had my life to live over, I would have talked less and listened more.
