Sometimes I have to pinch myself to believe we are actually in the year 2021! Last year was such a difficult one for so many of us. So, I’m looking for new ways to make life a little easier which will hopefully make room for more hugs and snuggles on the couch! That always makes life more joyful for me! 💕
I’ve found myself obsessing with home organization sites, experts, instagrammers, etc and I think it’s a sign I need to organize all of the closets in my home! Perhaps with a more organized home I’ll feel freer to focus on other projects I’ve been putting off. I just wish there was a magic wand I could wave! Anybody know where I can find one? 😁
I do use cotton dish towels and cloths to keep my dishes dry, counters and dining table clean. It’s important to be mindful of our paper towel usage. I’ve also already made the habit of carrying my own tote bags to the grocery store to avoid using plastic bags. So, while researching ways to make my daily life a little more eco-friendly I discovered a few really cool products I wanted to share with you.
Have you heard of the dreaded ‘Summer Slide’ before? I’m NOT talking about the slide your kids want to play on this summer! Many children, especially early and/or struggling readers, lose a lot of progress they may have made during the school year if they don’t read over the summer break. They may ‘slide’ out of practice and find it even more challenging to get back to where they were during the previous school year. Pretty much every expert recommends that parents prioritize reading as a summertime activity. So let’s do it together!
