Opening a business can be exciting and signify the fulfillment of a lifelong dream. But, there are some simple things you have to make sure you don’t screw up. The other night I went to a new food establishment in a nearby shopping center. My youngest daughter had been monitoring it for weeks, anxiously awaiting […]
Woman Crushing Kids on Halloween
I was getting ready for work this morning when this story came on the Today Show about a woman in North Dakota handing out something a little different to kids on Halloween. The story was prepped in a way that you figured they were talking about someone giving out apples or dental floss or something […]
2 Things Your Kid Should Learn in School
We all know schools go crazy over setting curriculum. But, what exactly are they trying to accomplish? More often than not, they are strictly looking to teach what’s needed in order to meet appropriate benchmarks, standardized tests, or standards of learning.

Of course everyone knew iOS 7 was dropping last night. I was fully prepared to download and get crackin’ on the new interface. So, how did it go? At first, very slow with some hiccups. I started the download last night and initially it told me I needed to clear some space to update my software. […]

** Update: Ayvani Hope Perez was found safe 9/18/13 YES!** That’s the feeling I got yesterday. I was sitting at my desk working when I came across a story on CNN about a little girl that had been abducted from her home during a frightening home invasion. Her name is Ayvani Hope Perez and as […]
