Back To School Shopping Tips, The Covid-19 Edition

Tips for online back to school shopping for homeschool, virtual and remote learning

Amazon Prime Benefits For Readers

I signed up for Amazon Prime mainly for the free two-day shipping. Then they added same day delivery for certain items and that was a lifesaver for many mom emergencies, like my kids waiting until two days before a project is due to say they need a random item that’s not available anywhere near us.

Tweak The System

Today I spent an hour with my PR peers talking about concerts. Our favorite experiences and ones that left us disappointed. The performers that remain on our bucket list and those that were better than we imagined. Many people had seen the same acts. The sheer joy of each person’s experience was written all over […]

Lia’s Lip Gloss

In a house with teen and tween girls lip gloss is like gold. So when a friend shared her daughter’s new business venture, Lia’s Lip Gloss, I knew I had to place an order. My girls looked on the website and decided on Diva 2.0. I placed the order for Diva, and added Allure because […]

I worked my way through the store, following the arrows on the floor and ticking things off my to-do list. I was focused. Until I saw the ice cream aisle. […]

Relaxing With Mommy Daughter Coloring Time

One of the ways I get mommy daughter quality time is with coloring breaks. I set up coloring supplies on the floor and invite my girls to come create. It’s the perfect opportunity to relax, bond and chat about randomness while we work at our own pace. It also forces me to give my mind […]

Make Your Own Reward Bin

My first experience at an arcade prize counter with the girls was traumatic. They had played all these games, collected tickets with pride and now they were unbelievably excited to turn in their hard-earned tickets for bouncy balls, candy and plastic jewelry. I estimated that I had spent about $50, and they were jumping all […]
