I'm confused. There's so much talk about embracing your body, about wearing what makes you feel good and finding the right style for you BUT there's always the comment of dressing age-appropriate and about the fact that there's an age and/or lifestyle limit on what you can wear. Let's figure this out.

It's fascinating to me to watch other people argue...or not. I'm one of those people who over-analyzes things and has to know why I'm the way I am and why others act differently. I had no idea we all had our own "style" of argument. Figure out your type and how to come up with solutions. Go figure. A solution? Ha!

Whether it's for business or pleasure, nothing beats the great feeling of returning to your hotel room to find the bed perfectly made, the toilet paper folded into a neat little point and fresh towels stacked and ready to use. Do you leave a tip for the person who magically made your life?

It's almost a rule that once September hits, our lives turn toward pumpkin spice. The drinks, the food, the candles, even the candy. We're absolutely obsessed. The first drink of my pumpkin spice latte seems to envelop me like an old blanket making me feel all cozy and protected from the world. According to science, I'm not the only one who thinks that way -  you do, too.

My friend got a new car, my former co-worker has met a new love interest and my cousin got engaged. I found all of this out and I haven't spoken with any of them. It was all via text. The problem: I don't see anything wrong with it. Am I just one of those people using technology in place of real-life conversations?

Would you give up your sick days for a co-worker? This sixth grade teacher had run out of sick days and was put in a tough position: Continue with cancer treatment but lose benefits or continue to work and not have treatment. This is when her co-workers stepped in to make the decision a little bit easier.

I may have overdosed on pumpkin spice anything last year. I was obsessed. I drank the coffee, ate all the candy possible, made pumpkin spice hot chocolate and baked breads until my pants didn't fit. I thought it was out of my system...until I saw the Pumpkin Spice Fatte Burger.

Couponing is time-consuming and difficult for those (me) who can't completely grasp the concept. I can't think far enough ahead to know that I'll want 30 cans of soup when I'm really shopping for laundry detergent. I had no idea that all you have to do is email a company and they'll send you a coupon. It's like personalized couponing! Here's what to do:

It's one thing to have an opinion about tattoos but to start a campaign stating that anyone with a tattoo is a criminal and to start a ban on visible tattoos at sporting events - now, that's a whole new issue. It's happening right now and people are jumping on board in support.

it's something I look forward to drinking every single day. Normally, that means it's not good for me because it's fun. Turns out, I'm so wrong. This caffeine addiction has major benefits for us!

It was reported that Gmail had been hacked and up to 5 million passwords were leaked. The Gmail part is not true, however, the password part is. Many people use the same password for multiple accounts. If that's you, keep reading.

It was thirteen years ago when our lives forever changed. We remember where we were, who we were with and even what we were wearing. There were so many questions, fear and sadness. What do we do now that it's over a decade later? We serve. We help others. We show our true spirit. THIS is what we're about. We are not broken.
