Faces and Places of Mom 2.0 & Some BIG News!

May 18, 2017 by Elaine

    Florida is a magical place. The Ritz Carlton is even more magical. The most magic though, is found in my friends. Writers, influencers, go-getters, travelers, drivers, down-right passionate people.  The last session I attended at Mom 2.0 2017 was small and intimate, and those of us in the room dug a little deep, while…

Bullet Journals, Only Love Today & Take Flight

February 7, 2017 by Elaine

You know what is really cool? Paper. (It’s also cool when two random people in your life say you look like you’ve lost weight, within a week’s time. Just sayin’.) Anyway, I’ve always liked paper. To save, to cut, to write on, to tear, to use to draw or glue or paint on. Paper rocks….

An Angel in Atlanta

April 18, 2008 by Elaine

Are y’all tired of my alliteration yet? Hey, I can’t help it if all the words I need to use happen to start with the same letter. I mean really… Anyway, on to why this post is titled as such… In a former life I worked for a pretty large furniture company as a home…

So Very Grateful

March 11, 2008 by Elaine

I thanked my husband last night for working so hard and making it so that I can now be home with my boys. See, it wasn’t always this way. I worked when The B Man was a baby, and at that time, I stood up for what I did. And I CONSTANTLY (every day when…
