Spring Cleaning Audit!
Recently I had lunch with a friend who is an image consultant and she was telling me how one of the services she provides her clients is a Closet Audit. In a nutshell, a closet audit is when she helps a client really look at her closet contents and decide what to keep and what to get rid of.

Forget about "time outs", I’m taking a "time in"!!!
What a difference a day makes... Isn't that a song? Well, kudos to the artist who sings it, because in my life ~ it certainly rings true!

She says she noticed how I sort of pull in for about 3 days and it used … [Read more...] about Forget about "time outs", I’m taking a "time in"!!!
