I like to think of myself as an organized person, and I love actually organizing things. But sometimes between work, motherhood and being a wife, my brain can get a little scattered. An idea will hit me and I’ll say “oh, I have to remember to look that up” – and then five minutes later, it’s left my mind for the next six months.

2 Easy DIY Bird Feeders Kids Can Make

Fortunately with a smartphone I lose less ideas than I did previously. I can jot myself a note, send a text to my husband with that hubby-do list request, or even look up the name to that song I can’t quite remember and stop driving myself nuts. But even more importantly, when inspiration hits, I can do something about it. Continue reading »

I don’t think I could workout without music.  While I can sometimes enjoy a little quiet, I get a little distracted when it’s quiet for too long.  My mind wanders, I start thinking of all the other things I should be doing, and then my body follows my mind and I’m off to the next thing.

I’m always looking for a great set of earbuds to use that will keep me connected to my music for that very reason.  If I’m spending my entire workout fiddling with them, refitting them, putting them back in, adjusting the plug into my phone – well, that wandering thing is going to kick in and my workout will be cut short.

One of my goals for 2015 is to rediscover my style.  I remember in college when I had a closet full of strappy sundresses, a variety of cute sandals, and pretty sparkly jewelry with which to accessorize.  Now my wardrobe mostly consists of jeans and t-shirts with the requisite pair of yoga pants tossed in, paired with flip flops.

Exciting stuff, I know.

One of the first places I want to start is with something I consider to be my main accessory, and that’s my cellphone.  It’s something I have on me at all times, so why not make it as personal as possible?  I already swap out the case on my current phone to match the season, but wouldn’t having an entire phone that’s customized just for you be awesome?

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of izon, the WiFi camera line powered by Stem Innovation. All opinions are 100% mine.

Growing up we never locked the doors to our house.  Honestly, we really couldn’t lock the doors to our house half the time because we didn’t always even know where the key was.  #TrueStory

Back then, the worst that was likely to happen was a bear might wander into the garage or wind up on the porch, or our neighbor Chappy might stop in and decide to redecorate for us.  Like the time we came home to find all the upstairs furniture downstairs, and vice versa.  #AlsoTrueStory Continue reading »
