Hey y’all … thanks for stopping by! My name is Caron and this is my home on the web. This blog a way for me to meet a whole bunch of new people as well as a way to keep up with my family and friends, especially those living overseas. I’ve been told that I’m the queen of  ”information you never knew you wanted to know.” I’m sure that this is their way of telling me that I never shut up but I’ll take it as a compliment! I love to share and my goal is to help you be more informed.

I have a wonderful husband, a loving and supportive family, a great church community, and some amazing friends. I have a blessed life, albeit crazy and disorganized at times, and I’m thankful for each new day and the challenges it may bring. I live in the sunshine state and have worked at a University for the past 10 years. Sometimes I love my job and the chance to impact the lives of students. Sometimes I loathe the higher education bureaucracy and sense of entitlement with students today. Frequently I’ll share my tips and tricks for navigating the Admissions and Financial Aid process.

In my blog you will find posts about anything that I consider interesting. Sometimes I’ll share articles I’ve read that have touched me in some way. Sometimes I’ll write about the actual conversations shared with the students and faculty members at the University. Sometimes I’ll just share stories and experiences from my personal life, including all my DIY adventures. Mostly I try to bring you the most relevant information designed to help better your life. Be sure to click the tabs at the top for easy access to my popular subjects.
