“How are YOU doing?”
Not in Joey Tribbiani’s voice from Friends, but rather think of the question in a sweet and vivacious little girl’s voice. This is a question my 2-year old asks us each day. And, when she asks family and friends, “How are YOU doing?” we usually get the blanket response with a sweet smile, “We’re good. How are you?”
But let’s be real. How are you really? Between orders to stay at home, managing work remotely, and likely doing both simultaneously while at home with kids, things are on a new level of HECTIC.
What level of chaos are you experiencing these days? Our home usually ranges between a 5-7, on a scale of 1, where we’re dreaming of lollipops and unicorns, to a 10 where we’re all breathing fire.
But, I’ve got to be honest, I’m not an average kind of girl, and I don’t love it when our family is mediocrely at a 5-7 on the chaos scale. I would much rather us strive to be at a 2 or a 3, where things are great, everything in the house is mostly in order, we’re almost always on time.

Let's be real: the craziest thing that could happen at a 2-3 on the chaos-o-meter is that we hit a speedbump at 15 mph instead of at 10 mph, and we’re in a touch of a rush to get out of the house. I can totally deal with that (and strive for it!).
But, what if your family is way over that ideal range of chaos for you? There are some ways you can change it, and I’m here to help.

Do you ever feel like this? You're on an unending, out of control ride, that you simply can't get off of? You can't stop it. It just keeps going, going, going ...
I think we've all been there, but the last couple of months have amplified this feeling 1,000 times over. Am I right?!
I came across some startling stats the other day that I just can't help but share. American's behavior has changed drastically over the past couple of months. And I'm sure you can guess, the behaviors are not great. In fact, they are downright destructive.
Are you falling prey to any of these behaviors lately? I know we have definitely felt the negative effects of these bad habits in our home, too:
- Television viewing has increased to 41 hours/week on average (up almost 30%).
- For 8 consecutive weeks, beer sales have topped $1B—the highest ever.
- Cigarette smoking has made a comeback.
- Unhealthy sleep patterns have emerged for 67% of Americans.
- And 76% of Americans have gained weight from mid-March—up to 16 pounds so far.
(Information found from a recent email from Becoming Minimalist.)
Can you relate to any of this? Don't feel bad--I think we can ALL relate. But what can you do about it?
The good news? YOU have control. You can change things around, and I have something that can help ... LIKE TODAY!

Cheers to better, more positive health + wellness choices ahead!
Seriously--I just can't hide it any longer!
When you have a good thing going, you've got to keep it going. When something so easy makes you feel refreshed, energized, and just plain GOOD, you can't keep it to yourself.
And what good is it really if you don't share the good stuff with your family and friends? (That's you, by the way!)
That's exactly how I feel about this little citrus delight I've been taking with me on the go these days. Did I mention it helps boost my cognitive ability, too? This stuff is GOOD, and it's simply just too good NOT to share.
I love how something so simple, so cost-effective, so easy (and yummy!), has totally transformed my mornings, my afternoons, my stress ... and my productivity levels.
This is a MAJOR SLAM DUNK for this busy mama on the go!
