How to Get Enough Sleep

by Caton October 8, 2014 ~ 20 Comments

I know it’s kind of ridiculous that I’m the one writing about how to get enough sleep. I mean after all, I’ve hardly slept an entire night in the past YEAR. Between being pregnant with twins and then having them, I’ve been in a pretty sleep deprived state for a while. However, at the same […]

New York Travel Guide: Part 1

by Caton October 6, 2014 ~ 8 Comments

I had a surreal experience last weekend. After my husband and I had a delicious Cuban dinner in Manhattan with friends, the four of us walked off our meals by exploring Central Park. The night was perfect. It wasn’t too cold and Central Park was a new experience for hubs and I. I was in […]

The Buzz Around the Web #6

by Caton October 3, 2014 ~ 11 Comments

I like to think of myself as a lifelong learner. I value education and curiosity. There are many skills I’d like to develop and areas of my life I’d like to improve. There are a million more experiences I’d like to have. I am content with my life, but I’m not satisfied, if that makes […]

Do You Need a Paper Planner Anymore?

by Caton October 1, 2014 ~ 12 Comments

If there’s one thing Natalie has taught me in the time I’ve known her, it’s that I have to kick my paper planner to the curb. It’s kind of like the death of a friend, though. I always looked forward to buying paper planners at the beginning of every school year. I took great pleasure […]

4 Lunch Recipes to Save Money and Valuable Time

Who else out there is not a morning person? I’m making an effort to change that, but I have my doubts about the success of this endeavor. Some traits are just ingrained into the very fiber of a person’s being. (Ha! See that’s funny because I’m talking about food today.) I’ll use every last second […]

Happy Fall! Thanks for your awesome feedback on my post this past Wednesday. It’s good to know I’m not the only one who is looking for ways to say no to work and yes to a more balanced life. I have a feeling I’m going to be searching for balance until the end of time, […]

Learning When To Say No

by Caton September 24, 2014 ~ 30 Comments

I’m craving some serious beauty and relaxation, preferably at a place that looks like the picture above. I just returned from a whirlwind of a blogging conference. It was an absolutely amazing time, but it was busy, busy, busy. Luckily I left feeling inspired and determined to make a few changes in my business. One […]

Closet Organization Even Roy G. Biv Would Envy

by Caton September 22, 2014 ~ 18 Comments

You say potato. I say po-tah-toe. You call it excessive. I call it organized. We can agree to disagree, right? Or maybe I can convince you that we don’t need to disagree at all. See, I’ve been laughed at by many a friend who has seen my closet. They weren’t chuckles of disbelief at a […]

The Buzz Around the Web #4

by Caton September 19, 2014 ~ 2 Comments

I’ve never been much of a TV junkie, but living outside the country without one made me feel like I was missing out a little. After a while I actually started to miss commercials. I was completely out of the loop on pop culture things that a twenty-something ought to know about. I’ve since seen […]

How to Work Out When You Really Don’t Want To

by Caton September 17, 2014 ~ 21 Comments

Ah working out. It’s something we all know we’re supposed to do but rarely have time to do it. Then, when that little glimmer of free time comes available, we’re typically so exhausted we let the opportunity pass us by. So what’s the secret? How can we work out when we really don’t want to? […]
