    Kids Do NOT Listen

    March 29, 2017 /

    Don’t feel alone wondering if your child(ren) ever listens to you.  Or better yet, wondering if they think before they act? OMG! For the life of me, my three live on planet Pluto.  Wait, Pluto is no longer considered a planet.  Anywho……..  It’s proven, kids live in their own world, and kids do NOT listen. We do the SAME thing EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.  Why I repeat myself I will never know.  Yeah, some of you are already thinking, “They are just kids!”  Yeah, yeah.  They are just kids, but they will make you lose your mind. When do we start holding them accountable for not following simple, basic instructions?

    March 27, 2017 /

    As the weather gets warm, we naturally want to spend more time outdoors. Whether this is by going on more frequent afternoon walks, napping under the shade of a big tree, or simply sitting outside and enjoying the warm breeze, we’re all ready for some Vitamin D. The spring weather is also the perfect excuse to throw a backyard party! Here are a few ideas to get you started.

    A Parent’s Guide to Which Spiders Are Dangerous

    March 17, 2017 /

    I was looking after my two nieces about a month ago while their parents went out on date night. We were innocently dressing up their dolls when a grotesque spider came scurrying out from under the clothes bin. Just as I always do when I see a spider, I screamed and jumped over to stand on the couch.

    My Favorite Grocery App That Helps Me Save

    March 9, 2017 /

    A few years ago I refused to use coupons or any phone saving apps during grocery shopping;  that all changed after moving to Japan.  We shopped at the commissary, but I still needed to find ways to cut our expenses a bit.  This gal started using her grocery savings app and coupons.

    February 17, 2017 /

    We are more than halfway through the school year and let’s be honest. Our kids are beginning to check out.  Heck!  We are starting to check out.  I usually last till Spring Break, but every day feels like Spring Break here in Hawaii. So, with the burnout, let’s think about the best time for my child to do homework. Did you see what I said there….MY, meaning you must figure out what works best for your home.

    The iPhone Case Saved My Child

    February 14, 2017 /

    I have a tween daughter.  If you have a tween son or daughter, I’m sure you understand the pain.  And if you have a female tween you CAN REALLY relate.  This child of mine is always complaining about not having easy access to her money at school or when she’s out and about.  I found a great iPhone case for tweens and adults. The first day of middle school was last school year for my home.  We were all excited and a bit nervous for The Softball Chef.  But, her personality is just chill and low key.  No worries in the world for her, well maybe an 89 on a…

    One Sure Way I Make Money While Shopping Online

      My family LOVES shopping online.  After we moved to Japan a few years ago, we kind of relied on it A LOT!  I had to find a way to save money while shopping online cause, of course, I still wanted to put a few coins back in my pocket.  So, I found a way to MAKE money while shopping online.  Yeah, I saved it more so than making it, but a paycheck equals payday to me.  🙂

    My All Time Favorite Pencil For Back-To-School

    July 29, 2016 /

    ********Updated August 2020******** No matter what grade your child is entering, they MUST use a pencil. You can get away with not sending a binder or backpack (I highly recommend sending a backpack, though. ‘Cause they usually send home lots of important papers) on the first day. However, it’s a wise idea to send at least one pencil and notebook.
