What’s The Hustle Really For?

People often reply when you ask them how they are doing,” I’m good but busy!”  How many times do we hear and say that in a day?  The last 6 years have been a whirlwind for me to try and find balance in my life. Looking back there were so many things that I “did” but they didn’t return any personal fulfillment.  I like to help others, not miss out on events and enjoy being involved in my community.  However, I was saying yes to too many things.  I thought the more “doing” I did would equal happiness.  I began to have an unfounded sense of obligation to do many things.  Saying yes to the things that deep down I didn’t enjoy.

A Statue For Fenton; “The Game”

The town I grew up in was in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Sault Ste Marie.  It was a cute town that had some of the friendliest people.  I left that town after high school and furthered my education at Central Michigan University 25 years ago, but who’s counting?  After I met my husband we landed in his hometown called Fenton.  The first time I drove through town I felt like I was back home.  It was quaint and friendly and I had always hoped to raise a family in a community such as Fenton. To this day, I am still proud to call it home.

Rejuv Ave – How To Have The Best Skin Of Your Life!

I didn’t always make the best choices in my earlier years about my skin care and now I am seeing the effects in my 30’s and 40’s.   I have been going to Rejuv Ave for a couple of years and I just love their patient care and how they respect my privacy and time.  They not only provide the best skin care services but also educate you along the way and suggest a long term plan.  My goal is to look like myself,  keep a youthful appearance all while still aging.  Now that is a job for sure!!

When I started, I met with Tracy Auchubon, the owner and we sat down and did a skin analysis.  This was done on a Visia Complexion Analysis machine.  It is painless and provides information on sunspots, wrinkles, brown spots and many others characteristics of your skin.  Tracy spent some time with me reviewing my skin and provided a personalized skincare plan.  I was ready to take my skin care to the next level and use a variety of their services.  Rejuv Ave Skin Spa has always made me feel very comfortable.  I know that I am in good hands.  They have a board certified physician, Dr Clarissa Kroese, who is their medical director.  They use the best technology and continue their education on the latest products and services.

Hurricane Irma-Ways You Can Help

Devastated.  I can’t believe what I see and hear about the massive amount of devastation that surrounds one of the worst Hurricanes to date, Hurricane Irma.  This past weekend I was glued to the TV watching in disbelief what was occurring in our country and the countries nearby.  I was personally effected, like many others, who knew loved ones who were either traveling in the South or living there.  My personal reasons were many but one that I was most fearful of was our home in Marco Island.  When the storm landed on Marco Island, what ran through my mind was how can I piece together our home from afar? How were are neighbors going to rebuild? How will people who can’t afford to rebuild their lives move on?
