A Day in the Life at A Swing & A Sway
If you walked into my office right now, the first thing you would notice is the TV on. It isn’t for Netflix though. I cast my iPad to it so everything I need for the day is front and center- from homeschool plans to client expectations. This is especially helpful…

The Full Swing!
Seriously. School is in full swing around here and I’m exhausted already! We started later than normal (don’t worry- we actually school year round, we just reset our school goals in September). I was in Alaska the week we usually would have started so I was a bit behind on…
