There is it sitting on your desk or maybe stored in your phone – the dreaded to-do list. Listed there are tasks you know you should do and that you know how to do but you just can’t make yourself do them. Just the thought of doing one of them is physically painful but you […]
Today many adult children are living at home. An agreement should be made in advance and in writing so that everyone is on the same page. Here are some tips: 1. Write it down – I just said that but it is worth repeating. It should take everyone’s needs and desires into account, be realistic […]
