With age comes wisdom, and a few regrets I’ve come to find out. Barely a day goes by after catching a glimpse of my crow’s feet in a reflection, that I don’t hear my mother say, “You’re going to regret that tan someday!”. Ugh, why are mothers always right? There’s no doubt that my sun-worshipping ways have led to some deeper than normal lines on my face. Add in lack of exercise and a workaholic tendency and I definitely have regrets. On the flip side, some things, when it comes to …
Fear of Taxes and How to Make Tax Time A Positive Experience
Conquering my fear of taxes was not an easy feat. Growing up, one of my Dad’s favourite expressions, aside from “pull my finger”, was this: “There are only two things certain in life; death and taxes.” Needless to say, I didn’t view taxes in the most positive light.

Trump: The Man, The Myth…The Neologist?
What is a neologist? Donald Trump can be described as a lot of things but he is also a prolific Neologist. That is my new way to describe this "very stable genius" who regularly entertains the world on Twitter, with some of his nonsensical, and often unexplainable, tweets. Neologist.
