  1. New Year's Intentions

    Wow, a New Year and a New Decade!!! What an exciting time.  Yesterday, I spent time going back through my calendar. I used this time to help me reflect and think about 2009.  There were aspects of 2009 that brought joy, sorrow, frustration, happiness, etc.   Read more >

  2. Shopping on Cyber Monday Can Save You Time and Money

    Juggling your work and life responsibilities is something that you have to consciously work on everyday.  The holiday season can bring additional balls that we have to keep up in the air.  In addition to your day to day responsibilities, now you have to figure out when your are going to decorate, go shopping for the perfect gifts, mail your Christmas cards and attend holiday gatherings.  Shopping on Cyber Monday is one way you can check off some of your Christmas shopping on your list.   Read more >

  4. Back to School Plans

    August signifies that summer is coming to an end and it's time for the kids to go back to school.  Coming up a Back to School Plan is a great way to ensure that one feels a sense of balance during this busy time.  It also helps to ensure that nothing falls through the cracks.  A little planning and preparation can make the transition from summer to school a pleasant one.  Read more >

  5. Still Time for Summer Fun

    There are still about 7 weeks of summer left before Labor Day. Soon the kids will be back in school. Until then, we still have plenty of time to enjoy some summer fun! There are plenty of ways to have a hot time the remainder of the summer. *If your schedule permits, there is still plenty of time for an extended vacation. If not, then how about taking a long fun-filled weekend? *Contact your local Parks & Recreation dept for some inexpensive events and fun activities for you and the whole family. *Check out local performing artist in your community.  Read more >

  6. Running Late

    Living a life out of balance can become a habit.  A life that lacks focus and direction will soon become unbalanced.  When this repeatedly happens this unbalance actually becomes the norm.  It can begin to feel comfortable.  One major area that tends to quickly become unbalanced is your daily schedule.  Read more >

  7. Vacation Madness

    So the kids are out of school and it's time to hit the road.  The summer marks the official start of the vacation season and it's time for fun.  One of my favorite vacation destinations is Disney World.  I absolutely love everything about the House of Mouse.  Read more >

  8. Skipping Out on Fitness

    Making time for physical activity is one of my weaknesses. When I have extremely busy periods in my life, physical activity seems to be one of the first things that I cut out of my schedule.  However, this approach is not healthy at all. I cut out my workouts when busy because I don't really like working out. But living a balanced life is not about balancing those aspects in life that I like. Having a balanced life means that I also embrace those aspects in my life that don't come naturally to me.  Read more >

  9. It Is, What It Is

    One important thing that women should come to terms with is that there are some things we just can't control. Being able to distinguish between what we can and can't control is important when striving for a life of balance.  When you understand this distinction and accept it then it keeps you from wasting time and energy.  Read more >

  10. The Obama's Night Out

    It's been a few days and most major newscasts are still reporting on the Obama's date night.  This morning while getting ready for work I was watching the Early Show on CBS.  The entire cast was discussing the estimated tax payer cost, Michelle's dress, the traffic it caused in New York, what they ate for dinner and what show they watched.  As they continued to bante  Read more >

About Me: 

Hello, I am so happy to be here! I am the single mother of a wonderful 16 year old daughter and I work full time for the Department of Defense.  In addition,  I am the Founder of a new company, A Balanced Life, LLC.  My interest is to assist all women in leading balanced and fulfilled lives.  This starts on the inside.  I beleive that is is important for women to take care of themselves physically, emotionally and spirtually.  If this doesn't happen then women find themselves feeling overwhelmed and frustrated.

This passion is very personal.  For years, I lived my life at a non-stop pace.  It wasn't healthy. I then had to re-evealuate my life.  Was I living my life in accordance to my internal compass or was I going through the motions.  Maintaining a sense of health and balance is now my primiary focus. 

I also have  17 years of combined experience working with children, teens and their families.  This experience has allowed me to see first hand how necessary it is for women to live a life of balance.
