How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

in Everyday on 09/30/09

Short and sweet and to the point.

      Hi Modern Mom: This is fantastic. I recently lost a friend in a car accident, he was in his 30’s, had a wife and toddler. Makes you really think about how short life is, and how you have to focus on living in the present and making the most of every day.

      Thanks for stopping in and I will be following your blog, love the concept behind it!!!
      Cheers,

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
