One Interesting Read. For the past four years, my husband and I have been remodeling our midcentury home.  During that time, I’ve dispatched Kyle to deal with the cabinet people and the electrician because every time I spoke, they ignored me.  It’s why I don’t have outlets in my island and why the outlets in the bathrooms are in weird spots. After all, what does this woman know?  She’s just the wife (who writes half the checks, but I digress).  So this article from Family Handyman on dealing with contractors who only want to speak to the male partner hit close to home.

Do you have a job interview on the horizon?  I have a big one on Wednesday.  This post from The Career Edit covers the five stories you need to prepare to nail the interview.  It’s a great reminder that these questions aren’t about nailing the right answer, they’re about finding the answer that’s real, honest, and shows the interviewer who you are as a person.

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
