Sender One Main Area

Last month I was invited to attend the media preview of Sender City at Sender One LA. Sender One is an indoor rock climbing facility with two locations – one in Orange County & one in Los Angeles. My family traveled from the Valley via the 405 Freeway & visited the rock climbing location near LAX.

Priorities – My Word of the Year for 2017

Defintion of Priorities

Someone once told me that if you get your priorities in order, then the rest of your day (or year) should flow smoothly. That someone was my daughter’s 4th grade teacher & although I’m probably paraphrasing the pep talk that the teacher gave her students last year, the idea is just the same – focus on what is important for that day, that week or this month & then you’ll have a better understanding of what you need to do to get through the … [Read more...]

Covey Logo

This post is part of a campaign sponsored by Covey App. All opinions are my own. You know that saying, it takes a village to raise a child. I believe that same village is needed to help support & lift up parents. That village can come in the form of family, friends and/or neighbors. Fortunately when my daughter was born, my husband & I had family to lean on; however, I didn’t have close friends nearby who had children the same age as … [Read more...]
