It's for anyone who has ever had a disagreement with their spouse, friend, sibling, or co-worker.  The steps here are things I use as an organization development consultant when … Continue reading How to get Back on Track after a Shouting Match

Daddy Loves Me Best: When you aren’t the parent they want

December 11, 2014March 12, 2016 ~ mindyqs ~ 1 Comment

Look at this face. Isn't the sweetest boy you've ever seen? But you would never guess that underneath those good looks there lurks a heart of stone. Every child does it to every parent and there is nothing we can do about it. It's a "phase." The phase when your sweet little angel wants only … Continue reading Daddy Loves Me Best: When you aren’t the parent they want

Homework Without The Yelling

December 2, 2014April 30, 2015 ~ mindyqs ~ 3 Comments

The yelling starts about 20 minutes after we get home. Coats are hung. Bags are put away. Playing and decompressing from school and the tram ride home has begun. But there is homework still to do. And, thus, The Yelling. We both yell, my son and I. Him with indignation, me with anger, both of … Continue reading Homework Without The Yelling

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain

simple Ula

I want to be rich. Rich in love, rich in health, rich in laughter, rich in adventure and rich in knowledge. You?
