Ideas, reviews, and thoughts on simple living in the REAL world.
I've been struggling with adrenal fatigue for a few years, and then just about complete adrenal depletion to the point of my cortisol dropping for the last year. It's been hard. Vomiting in the mornings and any time I get stressed hard. MRI's because my hormones are so messed up that we needed to check for... Continue Reading →
One of the things I commonly (AKA all the time) see, is people wasting time with how they do business work online. Everything from counting hundreds of contest entries to writing the same response of information to someone over and over and over. What is it costing you? A tremendous amount of time.

Walmart and one other grocery store was all... Continue Reading →

You've probably also noticed that Facebook is THE place where all of your friends (on Facebook, anyway) seem to be marketing THEIR businesses! (Probably unsuccessfully, but the instructions on how to properly do that will have to be in... Continue Reading →
Unless you've been browsing my blog pages or Facebook, you won't know what I've been up to the last two months. In May, I was approached about a natural company that was getting ready to launch, and who was going to be focused on 100% natural skincare and makeup that was Certified Toxic-Free (third party...
