Many of you know that I teach Decluttering Classes, but did you know that my qualifications began at birth? Yes, my twin sister and I were numbers 7 & 8 in a family of 8 girls, so you can bet our house was “full”, not only with people, but with many supplies for our existence. Our mother lived […]
“Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.” – Mark Twain For almost 20 years, we have been hearing about the “obesity epidemic” along with its connection to every disease under the sun, projections that it is only going to get worse, and the gloomy prediction that it is causing our children to […]
I am repeating this post from 5 years ago due to the continued relevance of its message. It was first posted in March of 2010. Today I have a guest blogger, and his name is Jon. I am fortunate to teach Jon and his friend Sam racquetball at the YMCA. Both boys are 18 years old and […]
As the Oscars recently wrapped up, I had an idea. I am going to challenge you to become an actor. Think about a character you have seen in a movie that touched you for some reason. What would it take you to “be” that person or take on that person’s admirable characteristic (s)? Example: say […]
I read that Puerto Rican Sen.

I have written about New Year’s resolutions in the past, so you may know I’m not a fan of them when proclaimed in the traditional sense, primarily due to their poor success rate. If not designed realistically, most fail or fizzle out and here’s why: January 1st is not a date most people are ready […]
With all the “decluttering” going on, what do we do when the holidays roll around and we are again put in the frenzy to “buy more, have more, and fill up our lives with more?” As I plan my “Decluttering Made Easy” classes for 2015, I look at my desk – it is cluttered with […]
My sweet neighbor children, Danika (age 8) and Carter (age 6) invited me to Turkey Bingo at their elementary school last night. This is the same school where my sons went to school and I have great memories of this place, so of course, I said “yes!” I also wanted to see what was being […]
