Selecting Lingerie for Her

The first thing you want to think about when shopping for your lady is that you are shopping for HER, not you. That statement cannot be said enough. Just because you find something sexy and alluring that you want to tear off of her the moment she puts in on does not mean that she’ll like or, or feels comfortable in it. Remember, you may think that it is sexy as hell, but there isn’t a thong riding up your ass, so pleaseee, before you select something for YOU, remember it’s for HER, and with this in mind choose your piece(s) of lingerie carefully.  If she does not like it, or feel good in it, she’s not going to wear it. Don’t run out and get the most revealing, uncomfortable piece of lingerie known to man just because it is eye candy.

This will probably get your purchase used as a car towel or end up in the garbage can when you are at work. You want to ask yourself what would she wear. What does she like? What color suits her and best? Will she feel good and comfortable in this? This can be a very difficult task to say the least. However, knowing what types of lingerie are out there and what kinds she likes will very beneficial for you. So PAY ATTENTION!

The next thing to consider is the actual type of lingerie out there. You will want to make sure that you are finding what you are looking for and not just plain old panties and bras. You want something special that will suit her style and body. You will want to know the difference between a corset and a bustier. You might think there is none but there truly is. A corset is designed to cinch the waist and flatten the bust line to produce a specific amount of cleavage.

A bustier has bra like cups in it and does not have waist cinching. The difference between a Chemise and a Baby Doll is that a chemise is more conservative and a bit longer. The Baby Doll has bra like cups and is a bit shorter and more revealing. Baby Dolls often come with matching panties, as chemises usually do not. Then there are the teddies that are like a one-piece outfit. At SimplyDeliciousLingerie.com we hand selected each piece with every woman in mind, because as women, we know that what looks good on me, may not look good on you, someone else and vica versa. If you are not sure what would be the right choice, you can never go wrong with a sexy matching set. The bra and panty set is a great place to start with perhaps a matching satin robe.

So now you know the basic styles. Now you must know her size. Here is the most confusing part about lingerie shopping. There is more than one size type depending on the type of lingerie you purchase. When buying any lingerie that has cups in it you will have to know her bra size. This is the size that says 32 B, 36 D, 34 C, etc. This is critical to know or she will not fit into it properly and will not wear it. For all other types of lingerie you will have to know her shirt and dress size. You will want to know both the number and generic size. Look on her clothing to see if she is an 8, 10, 6, etc. then look on other articles to see if she wears a small, medium, or large. If you buy something too small she will think you want a smaller woman.

To buy something too big, she will think that you think she is fat…and if she thinks that, buddy I hate to tell you but you’re now in the dog house! You must have the right size so she knows you want her. Pay attention to HER needs. It’s not about YOU, after all it is about HER! Also by knowing her bra size it will eliminate getting a teddy or babydoll, fantasy costume, etc., that will be too tight and possibly rip after its first wearing. Yes, tight can look sexy, but we don’t want to bend over and have the entire ass rip out of your lingerie, why btw (by the way), is now no longer sexy at all.

Once you have decided on what style will suit her and make her feel comfortable, then now you need to think color. You need to be sure that this hides anything she feels is a flaw. An example would be if she is constantly complaining about her hips then you will not want to go with a teddy that outright exposes that area. Go through her draws and see what colors she likes. Pick out a color that enhances her eyes and skin tone. See what other lingerie she has. This will help you find the perfect style and color for her that she will enjoy. Take your time while shopping and don’t rush things.

My boutiques are open 365/24/7 so take your time! If you need help, contact Tantalizing Tina in our expertise fashionista section and write her for assistance! You can always ask for help if you are having a hard time finding what you are looking for. Always go with items that have adjustable straps. This will allow her to fit the garment right for her body.

Detachable straps are always good too, especially with corsets and bustiers. This will allow her to determine if she is comfortable with out the straps or is almost like two outfits in one. When buying matching panties you will want to know what style she wears and get that kind. For garters and stocking make sure you are positive she likes these and they have adjustable straps. If you still are not sure what to buy and this is your first lingerie experience, keep in mind, you can never go wrong with sexy matching sets. Tutus are a good way to make it fun! See the photo below. Most importantly have fun shopping and make it exciting for her. When done right, you can expect to go out again and again together, which is the best fun, and as your relationship grows, you’ll begin to learn what why is was that feel for him in the beginning.

wHy mEn LoVe SeXy LinGeRie…

Men  (and when I say men I mean 97% of them) stated recently in a poll that their ideal first impression of lingerie was extremely sexy and seductive. It certainly does skim over that forbidden zone, oh yes… that naughty place in one’s mind where they can fantasize for hours about the hourglass shape of the woman that they envision like a dream, and pursue like the dominator. Lingerie on a woman indicates a sense of confidence, and independence. Women aren’t afraid to wear it and show it off in a discrete way, that is. We don’t flaunt it, we wear it with pride.

All men are different in what they like and want but most like revealing and see-through outfits. Anything that will show the parts of a woman that he is not normally allowed to see is alluring to ones eye, and provocative to their inner thoughts. They also seem to love those items that accentuate the female body or have a girlish flare. I’ve always said, keep it simple. Men love flattering sexy and risky lingerie on a woman. Men are very tactile and visual. If he loves to touch it and he loves to look at it, then you can guarantee he loves you in it! Never go without cardinal rule #1 gals…Always remember to wear your high-heeled shoes. Oh yes, men love stilettos. This is what will pull the look together, and trust me when I say this….”you’ll leave an impression his mind hat he won’t forget!” It will be a vision that his mind will seduce.

What do they want to see women dressed  in you may ask?

1) Bras, G-strings, Garters, and Stockings: This may seem simple to the woman wearing it but it is a major piece of eye candy for the man who is looking at it. So why do they love these select pieces so much? Classy, Stylish and oh so seductive. With these pieces, you want to go with sexy and hot not comfortable. Men love the lace look and can’t get enough trying to peek through it. They love to be teased. Use the bad girl steamy colors like white, red, and black for that hot erotic look he will be drooling for. Other great colors are lavender, light blue, and peach. These colors are soft yet sexy and give that feminine edge men love to stare at. Be sure all the pieces match and are lace, even the garter belt. Get a pair of matching silk stockings to go with it.

 

2) Corsets/bustiers: There is not a man on this planet who would not want to look at a woman wearing either one of these. The corset slims the body and flattens your silhouette. The cleavage factor is definitely a huge turn on to guys. Add in a sweet little G-string or thong with a pair of thigh high stocking and you will have him reeling. The bustier is designed very similar but has cups like a bra. Many come with the detachable garter so stockings are a must. Colors to go with when thinking of guys are black, white, or red. These colors have that sexy bad girl look to them that just drives men absolutely to the breaking point. Other colors to consider are the sweet pastels. They take a hot outfit made for a woman and give it a girlish flare. It is this girlish flare that turns men right on.

3) Teddies: This is a one piece out fit with tiny spaghetti straps. It looks like a skimpy body suit. There is an array of styles available. The most appealing to men are the combination satin and mesh together in the same piece. That satin corset-look in the front with lace around the breasts with a sheer mesh in the back. When you turn around he will be able to see straight through. With this little number stick with white or black mesh and bold frontal tones that stand out and scream sexy. The hottest color schemes for men are white with tantalizing pastels, or black with hot bold colors like reds, blues, and purples.

4) Play outfits: You will drive the man insane with a play outfit. Men love to watch women dress up. You can always count on the naughty schoolgirl to shake him in his shoes. A sexy partially opened white tailored top that is tied at the waist. The plaid mini schoolgirl skirt with white garter and stockings is a winner every time. Another sure-fire winner is the naughty nurse. White mini Nurses dress with the hat and sexy pair of fishnet stockings. There are so many of these outfits to choose from you could keep him mesmerized for years. These types of out fits are fun and make men go gaga.

5) Negligee: This very simple little gown is a must for every woman who has a man at home. The two types men go crazy for is the sheer and the silky. A silk negligee satisfies a man’s need to touch something soft and supple. The sexiness of the gown is wonderful for then to look at as it accentuates all your curves. This will make him want to see and touch more and more. The sheer version of this is just plain hot. As the mesh lies draping your body the guy is now able to see all the places the fabric gets to gently touch. You can even add a lace bra and panty to tease him even more. With this outfit you will want to go with fun bright colors that grab his attention. If you are going with shear the standard white, black, and red are the sexiest.

wHy wOmEn CHeaT?

As a divorced woman myself, I still ask so many times why do people cheat? In this article please note (ladies) that I am not picking on you, this article is about why women cheat. I have a part 2 that asks “Why do men cheat?” First things first…Whenever people choose to cheat on their partners, there is usually some specific reason that led to the decision to seek physical comfort outside the relationship. In the case of married women who cheat, there are several common reasons why they choose to step out on their husbands. Here are a few examples. Perhaps the most common reasons why a woman would choose to cheat on her spouse has to do with a lack of attention. When the husband is emotionally cold or distant, or spends most of his time at work, yes the old’ workaholic, the wife may become frustrated that she does not seem to be of any importance. Guys if this sounds like you, it’s time to make some changes, otherwise you may be in for some bigger problems on the home front.  In order to obtain what she needs to feel wanted, she may choose to begin an affair. Even if the affair is purely physical, she has the full attention of a man for at least the amount of time they are together.

In some instances, the woman may find that her libido is not in sync with that of her husband. The end result is that she is left without an outlet for physical gratification. As a means of filling in the gap, she may take on a lover who can offer her physical companionship when her husband is not in the mood. When health issues prevent the husband from being physically responsive to the sexual needs of his wife, the situation can be very touchy. This is very different from a husband who is capable of engaging in sexual activity with his wife, but chooses to not do so. In this scenario, married women who cheat may see this as the only way to get through the crisis and remain supportive of her husband while he deals with health issues. Last, married women who choose to cheat may do so because they have no physical interest in their husbands. My next topic may strike a nerve….

Who do women who seem to have everything cheat? The answer is easy, because they are in the constant search for perfection, because they know that there must be something better than what they already have and so they start searching for it. Most probably they will not find it, or end up finding something worse than what they already have. In this case they will feel bad and realize they did a mistake by doing this, and if they are lucky enough, this hidden escapade will be their secret forever.

There is another reason for the question: Why do women cheat? – Andmost definitely we all encountered this phenomenon. Boredom appears in the couple after a certain amount of time; the woman wishes to experiment something new and is not ready to transmit this to her partner. She has the feeling that her partner might think she is depraved if her wishes to experiment are eccentric. This is what leads to another mistake; they will try that new thing with a new partner, which they do not know well enough. Again, in this case, the woman will come back to her home, with a well kept secret.

The attraction may have been more along the lines of a secure financial future or a prominent place in local society. When this is the case, the woman may discreetly take on a lover who does excite her physically, while still fulfilling her other roles in the marriage. While there are many different reasons that motivate married women who cheat, the bottom line is that cheating carries a great deal of risk. Lives can be changed forever, reputations can be ruined, and friends and family may suffer if the cheating comes to light. If you are thinking of cheating for any reason, think twice. While the activity may provide some temporary pleasure, the benefits rarely outweigh the liabilities.

Tattoos and Cosmetic Surgery…

As beautiful and artsy as they are, tattoos are permanent. People get tattoos for a variety of reason…none that I can really figure out because I dislike them (for me, but please don’t take it personal)…and besides that I cringe when I see needles. The only time I ever welcomed a needle or two needles was during my painful hours of childbirth with my two children and believe me when I tell you that the big needle on the end of that epidural was well worth the prick and few minutes of pain!

Let’s look at a few examples shall we of who and why people might get a tattoo? So, you’re 17 and rebellious and your parents tell you that you are forbidden to get a tattoo…what do you do? You get one anyways and hide it hoping that they never see it or at least not until you are out of the house or away at school…but then later in life you may not like it so much because it was something that you thought you could get away with and did, now the thrill is gone. The other case scenario is that your husband hates tramp stamps (as they are called) he forbids you to get one and then you split up/divorce and you can’t run to the tattoo parlor fast enough to get one just to piss him off…is this sounding familiar to anyone ladies?

What happens after you get older or just don’t like that tattoo any longer, and this can go for men too, it’s not just about the women getting the stamp. What happens then,…what happens when you begin to age and wrinkle and that tattoo starts sagging? Then what? How do you remove it if you later in life you come to hate it? Well, I have found some cosmetic surgeries that might interest you. Since I have no tattoos I couldn’t tell you if these measurement to remove them work, and I am not an expertise tattoo artist.

There are actually two types of cosmetic tattoo surgeries: the removal of a tattoo and the application of a tattoo. Both procedures are considered cosmetic in nature and surgical as far as procedural aspects are concerned. Generally speaking, many youthful recipients of tattoos may not enjoy the process – let’s face it, it hurts – yet do like the result. Sporting a new tattoo is like a ticket stub signifying that you have paid the entrance fee into the “cool cult.” You are no longer considered a “square” but are now hip, cool, and with it. This feeling usually lasts until the first real job interview when your highly visible facial or arm tattoo costs you a high paying job, simply because the hiring manager does not feel that your appearance is congruent with the image the company seeks to project. Additionally, when youths grow older and they get ready to settle down, marry, and raise children, a tattoo suddenly makes some feel very uncomfortable in their new roles. Pool parties suddenly become embarrassing occasions, and volunteering in the child’s classroom may be done under the disapproving eye of a teacher. For some adults, tattoos may also remind them of times and episodes in their lives best forgotten because of the pain they may hold. For those who now regret the dermal artwork received in times of exuberant youth, there is hope!

With the help of a laser, tattoos may be successfully removed or significantly faded. This treatment is not speedy, however. Due to swelling of the skin, treatments must be spaced six to eight weeks apart, and quite often a number of treatments are required before success is achieved. Four to eight sessions under the laser are not unusual, depending on the color and type of ink that was used in the creation of the tattoo. Interestingly, extremely dark tattoos, those made with black or blue ink, fade the quickest. Red is another color that will fade very quickly. The colors green and yellow, however, take a long time to eradicate and may require additional treatments to truly get rid of. Of course, it is important to note that there is no guarantee of complete fading, and sometimes very close scrutiny of the previously tattooed area will reveal a very faint imprint of portions of the removed tattoo.

The other kind of cosmetic tattoo surgery that is available today is actually the application of permanent ink in a controlled manner that will allow women to have the look of a beautifully made up face when they first wake up in the morning, and without any expenditure of effort! Permanent makeup is now a common procedure that produces stunning looking results with just a few sessions at the doctor’s office. The application of this technology is truly plentiful: lips may be lined for higher definition or even full lip coloring may be applied; eyeliner on the top and bottom of the eye lids can be applied as well as eyelash enhancements; the eyebrows may be colored to have that perfectly defined look; some women even enjoy the application of permanent beauty marks!

Of course, just like with a regular tattoo, the drawback to this application is the fact that it is permanent. Be certain that you not only like the shades of colors you have chosen, but that they also enhance your appearance! A trained cosmetologist will be able to provide valuable guidance when it comes to color and shade selection. Additionally, remembering that this make up is permanent, consider the applications you are choosing. Pouting lips may look cute on a twenty year old girl, but on a forty year old woman they might look at little out of place. Similarly, a dashing green shade of eyeliner may be stunning for an evening on the town, but it may seem inappropriate for the day job as a bank teller. The other danger of this kind of cosmetic tattoo surgery is the fact that if you visit an inexperienced practitioner simply because the rates are so much less expensive, your permanent makeup may look somewhat less than natural. Additionally, inexperience can lead to mistakes which can have far-reaching consequences, especially when they occur around the eye area. Thus, you truly receive what you pay for!

 

Body Language…Know How to Read It?

I wrote an article on this topic not long ago, but after several comments and emails to me I decided to get a little more specific with the true details and traits of body language. So what it is you exactly? Body language is the meaning behind the words or the “unspoken” language. My grandmother used to say that you can tell what a person is thinking without them ever having to open their mouth. She was such a smart lady. Reading the language of ones body movements, and facial expressions tells the true story. 

Surprisingly, studies show that only up to an estimated 10 percent of our communication is only verbal. Honestly, that percentage doesn’t at all surprise me. The majority of the rest of communication is unspoken. This unspoken language isn’t rocket science. However, there are some generalizations or basic interpretations that can be applied to help with the understanding or translating of these unspoken meanings. Here are some basics below.
 Smile- People like warm smiles. Think of a heartfelt warm-fussy, maybe your favorite pet, and smile!
 Eyes –I say this is the MOST important sign in great communication. If you don’t look someone in the eyes while speaking, this can  be interpreted as dishonesty or hiding something. Big red flag! Likewise, shifting eye movement or rapid changing of focus/direction can translate similarly. If more than one person is present in a group, look each person in the eye as you speak, slowly turning to face the next person and acknowledge him or her with eye contact as well. Continue on so that each person has felt your warm, trusting glance. Some suggest beginning with one person and moving clockwise around the group so that no one is missed, and so that you are not darting around, seemingly glaring at people.
 Attention Span / Attitude – Other people can tell what type attitude you have by your attention span. If you quickly lose focus of the other person and what is being said, and if your attention span wanders, this shows through and makes you seem disinterested, bored, possibly even uncaring.

Attention Direction – If you sit or stand so that you are blocking another in the party, say someone is behind you, this can be interpreted as rude or thoughtless. So be sure to turn so that everyone is included in the conversation or angle of view, or turn gently, at ease and slowly, while talking, so that everyone is incorporated, recognized and involved in the conversation. Again some suggest the clockwise movement when working a group.

Arms Folded/ Legs Crossed – This can be seen as defensive or an end to the conversation. So have arms hang freely or hold a glass of water, a business card or note taking instruments while communicating with others. Be open with open arms. Note: If you need to cross legs, cross at your  ankles and not your knees. Sitting tightly folded up says                      that you are closed to communications. 

 Head Shaking- This is fairly accurate. If people are shaking their heads while you speak, they are in agreement. If  they are shaking, “no,” disagreement reigns in their minds.

Space/ Distance – On the whole, people like their own personal body space. Give people room and keep out of their  space. Entering to close can be intrusive and viewed as aggressive. 

 Leaning- Sitting or standing, leaning is viewed as interest. In other words, an interested listener leans toward the speaker. 

Note others’ body language – While you are with others, note how their bodies read. If a person suddenly folds his arms across his chest and begins shaking his head “no,” you’ve probably lost him. Might try taking a step back and picking  up where the conversation began this turn for the negative and regroup. It’s all about strategic planning, so ‘think’… before you ‘do!’

Let’s Talk Cougars…

 

Many people have their own definitions of what a cougar is so I decided to check out a few different avenues to see what Google said about Cougars. When I typed in the word “cougar” this is what I found; She’s the new breed of single, older woman – confident, sophisticated, desirable and sexy, she knows exactly what she wants. What she wants is younger men and lots of great sex.

 Let’s talk Cougar…Shall we? She’s sexy. She ages gracefully,…and she’s back. So the number one question on a mans mind is; “Where do I find my cougar and what should I expect?” We’ll discuss these questions in this article. Like it or not, by getting involved with an older woman, you are putting yourself in a situation where the moral majority – people like your parents and boss will most likely frown upon you. Your decision to date a younger man will not be immediately understood by everyone; especially his and your family. Even if your relationship is serious, don’t expect everyone to look at it that way. People and even your own family might have negative comments about your relationship. Guess what? Newsflash, it’s your choice, not theirs!

To avoid conflicts in the future, do not hide your relationship with your younger partner from your family. If you do, they will assume that you are not serious with him or they may just think that both of you are up to no good On the up side, you may become your buddies’ hero, and they will start begging you to reveal what it’s like. In any case, people will talk. If you are secure enough in the relationship, or you actually like the attention, then by all means, proceed.

 What should the physical attraction  be? Well, an older woman usually won’t be a match for a younger woman’s appearance and other physical features. This is a fact that every cougar dating younger guys should accept. However, they can make up for this in a whole bunch of different ways. An older woman who looks and feels good about herself will always be better than a younger woman in the eyes of a younger man. One way for an older woman to do this is by staying physically and mentally healthy. Being overly insecure and anxious won’t help you. Also, make sure that you are physically fit. Just because you are older doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t take care of your body anymore. Take care of your body and exercise every now and then. This will help you keep up with the energy level of your younger partner.

 So you’re ready to date a cougar  but where are you going to find her? Sure, you see potential cougars everywhere, on the subway, in the supermarket, on the bus, at the mall – but are they really cougars?

Cougar dating is a phenomenon that has only recently been brought to public attention. Of course, younger men have been dating older women for years. Known as cougars dating, this is a type of dating which is becoming more and more popular online. Many ads proclaim date a cougar, or dating older women. There are even free dating sites dedicated to these types of relationships. But what are these relationships all about? Is cougar life dating simply about older women wanting sex with younger men? How does one approach a cougar and if he is too shy to do so in person, what about the Internet via personal ads or online dating sites for cougars?

 Sometimes the motivating factors center on sexual satisfaction. But in many cases it goes much, much deeper and there is an actual desire for a real relationship! The younger men involved also may have many different reasons for choosing such an arrangement. Any such dating advice, therefore, should focus on both the male partner and the cougar. Finding a cougar to date in a bar should be fairly straightforward. More and more cougars are heading into bars and clubs to check out the young cougar bait on offer. So go find them, and when you do, be confident, be cool and remember the reason most cougars are looking for a younger man is because they’re bored of the slipper wearing, couch potato guys of their own age. That’s why you have to exude energy, fun and sexual appetite if you want to secure a date with a cougar in a bar.
 Online dating is also a great tool in your quest to date a cougar. The benefit of online dating is that you get to sound out your cougar for a while first by swapping messages and maybe even photos. You can really get an idea of what your cougar woman is looking for and make sure that if you do go on a date with her, you’re likely to be on the same wavelength. The drawback of course is that you don’t know how realistic the photos of your cougar really are. You want an older woman but you don’t want a shrivelled up prune, right? So there’s a balance to be struck and when you date a cougar based on pictures alone you take a chance. But then again, nothing ventured, nothing gained!

The Wonder Woman of Working Moms…

All moms are working moms, and all moms face the challenge of prioritizing how they spend their time. Time management becomes absolutely critical, though, for mothers who must devote 40 to 50 precious hours a week to a job. For women in such situations, it’s crucial to streamline and simplify pretty much every imaginable area of life. We have sticky notes, and schedules, carpools, and PTA Meetings….sporting events- little league, soccer, volleyball games….when did it end?

I’ll tell you when…..

 When they turn 16 and got a drivers license…that’s when! I handed them the keys and said GO! The day my son got his driver’s license he could have driven to China with his sister and I would have paid for the gas gladly! ……(jokingly that is just an expression my folks used to use…) truth at hand is, for the first time in years I was able to relax take a deep breath and get some chores and house work done….something I wasn’t used to getting done until after 9 pm at night. I didn’t become a single mom until the kids were 14 and 12 when I divorced…..that was difficult for me,…not sure why, they were pretty self-sufficient and they packed their own bags to go to Dads, or to go to school and grabbed their own lunch stuff. I have NO idea how women with small children do it. I applaud you, truly I do! I see women at the airport when I am on business trips with strollers packed full and holding kids under their arms while chasing the toddler and I think to myself…..”I have a hard enough time packing ‘me’ and getting here!” Women today are like Wonder Woman! We are built with super powers to do it all.

These are just a few things that we Moms do……we knock them off the list one at a time;

  • clean the house;
  • do laundry;
  • shop for groceries;
  • take care of errands, which may include paying bills and handling financial matters;
  • help kids with homework;
  • be present at kids’ activities;
  • spend time with partner;
  • spend time with friends and family members;
  • pursue personal interests of any kind;
  • and “maybe — just maybe — sneak in an hour to go to the gym or to soak in a bubble bath.” (this was always an added bonus for me..) now I fall asleep in the tub with a glass of wine, soooo relaxed! Don’t think that there are not times where I missed the days tha tmy kids were young. I thought of it tonight as I sat with a friend outside of Dairy Queen watching all the soccer kids pile into and out of the mini vans and SUVs.

Hmmmm. No wonder so many women I know are so tired! When our heads hit the pillow we are out like a light!

Get in a “Time Management” program at home: The following tips may not solve every time-management challenge that confronts you, but hopefully they’ll help you think about ways to simplify and save time as you manage your own unique schedule and circumstances.

1. Have places that things go and know where the keys are always! If you’re constantly tripping over shoes, losing library books or running late in the mornings because your kids can’t find their backpacks, homework or school books, something’s got to change. It may be time to institute a system for packing up backpacks with all necessary contents and leaving them by the door before bedtime — no exceptions. Baskets and low-cost storage bins also can help you organize the most troublesome items in your life.

2. Smooth out the bumps in your mornings….no one wants to rush! Mornings are exceptionally rough for many working moms. It can be hard enough to get yourself ready, out the door and off to work on time, right? Well, that whole process becomes exponentially harder when you have to wake, feed, clothe, pack for and transport a small human being in addition to yourself. Do as much as you possibly can the night before.

Wake up one full hour before your child does. This will allow you to drink coffee, get dressed, take care of your own pre-work tasks and get breakfast staged before the kids get moving. Plan to arrive everywhere 30 minutes early. (Note: You’ll probably never arrive anywhere 30 minutes early.) But this mindset of trying to arrive early will give you a much better shot at showing up where you’re supposed to be on time. Plan your meals a week in advance and grocery shop for all meals at that time. It saves time, energy, worry, and cash!!

Pack a bag with everything in it, and pack the car, snacks, bottled water, goodies. baby wipes, diapers, band-aids, toys, books, etc.

Learn how to juggle kids “after school time” …..Ok, seriously, this can get tough….especially if one is at soccer practice and the other has piano lessons. I only had two kids and I had a difficult time…..what do people do with 3 or 4 or 5 or more? Keeping up with work at the office might get tricky but without the job, you wouldn’t have all of these added luxaries, nor would the kids.

Society today is so wrapped up in go go go and do do do, that we forget to slow down. Take time, enjoy your family because one day you’ll be sitting in an office at 10:00 o’clock at night in silence writing an article and realize how much you miss the good ole’ days!
