Setting your kids up for success!

With school fast approaching, it’s a great time for those of you with school-age children to reevaluate their learning environment at home. If you have already figured it out, and your kids were successful, good for you! My son is in college and had to start studying from home when COVID hit, and he recently told us that it was difficult for him to attend virtual classes, study, play video games and sleep all in the same room! He needs a change of scenery, so we need to reevaluate too. This article has some great ideas for creating a successful home school environment. 🙂

Need an attitude adjustment? Try decluttering!

How many of you have read “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie?\” I love the article below, because it totally reminds me of that book! 🙂 It talks about how getting rid of the clutter that’s causing you to be stressed and annoyed (and other things!) can have a super positive ripple effect in your life! I’d love to hear from you if this happens to you. Try letting go of just a little bit of clutter (some clothes, some papers on your desk, some books) and tell me how it makes you feel! I bet you’ll be surprised! 🙂
