In 5th grade I remember sitting around the playground during lunch and watching all of the girls compare feminine products. They all carried their own maxi-pads and tampons in their purses. I carried a kickball in my backpack. I didn't understand why they were all so giddy about having their period. In high school, the same thing happened. Girls shared their thoughts on tampons and which ones were better than others. They hated their cramps and bloating. Once again I had nothing to share. By my senior year I still period free and I was happy for that.  Read more >

Yesterday marked a month since Trayvon Martin was murdered by George Zimmerman in Sanford, Florida. Till this day, Zimmerman is a free man, while Trayvon's parents and millions of others are calling for justice. If you take a look around the internet this week, you'll also notice the smear campaign that is being directed towards Trayvon as well. Sealed school documents have been released in reference to his suspension from school. His tweets and Facebook page has been scoured and put under scrutiny.  Read more >

My morning routine during the work week is pretty typical. I'm usually up by 5:30 a.m. and my son usually drags himself out of the bed by 6:30 a.m. There's always a constant, "Kobe, hurry up and get dressed" yell coming from my bedroom. Unlike myself, he's not a morning person. Usually, on a good day, we're out of the house by 7:15 and I drive him to school, but this morning he wanted to walk. I don't live in what some may describe as a 'bad' neighborhood.  Read more >

I have $0.35 left on my Flexible Spending Account debit card. In January I started out with the max you can add, $3000.00. I just knew that by the end of the year, I'd have a lot more left, and would have to scramble trying to buy up all of the motrin & cold medicine I could, because after Dec 31st over-the-counter meds are no longer FSA eligible. That definitely was not the case.  Read more >
