I’m so excited to partner with REPREVE in this sponsored post and share with you how to #TurnItGreen! Each year I take a few more steps in becoming more green. I’m a slow changer, it takes awhile for me to introduce new habits … and keep them. But growing in my greenness, or at least […]
On Monday I chronicled my and Dominic’s journey as a newly married couple while working and completing our degrees. It’s as busy as it sounds :) But, today, I’ve got a few specific tips to share in case you’re considering returning to school. For almost four years I worked in the education field and I […]
