November Read: Organizing with ADD

You probably already know that disorganization is one of the many symptoms for those diagnosed with ADD. I do not have anyone in my immediate family diagnosed with ADD, but as an elementary school teacher I worked with many students with ADD who also struggled with disorganization. This month’s read shows that doesn’t always have to be the case! With accommodations made for [...]

September Read: Tell Your Time

I’m a long time fan of Amy Lynn Andrews’ blog Blogging with Amy. Amy gives straightforward advice (for the non-techie) on all things blogging. Her tutorials have guided me through many a dilemma over here on Space for Living. When I saw she had an eBook on time management I was instantly curious of her strategy for the well covered subject (see [...]

August Read: Getting Things Done

Wow, busy month! But I am back on track, and now that I’ve indulged in my sharing of some favorite pics of my girls, [...]

Turn on the news any day of the week and [...]

"I’m Better then I Deserve"

  If you would have told me a year ago that my finances would be in their present condition, I would have laughed and called you crazy! Last February, I read The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey and it completely changed the trajectory of my financial path. This may seem like a break from [...]

My January Read: Organizing your Time

  If you missed my December Read find it here. January is a great month to get back to basics and focus on what is important to us. This months read does just that. Anyone who wants to get organized is probably familiar with must-read author, Julie Morgenstern. Although I’d checked out a few of [...]
