Your Week at a Glance :: Week of July 8

Is is just me? Or did anyone else realize that we are now on the downhill side of 2018, with 🎄 Christmas now in view. What??? 😮 It’s true! In this week’s line up, we have a guest post with tips on saving now for the holidays (it will be here before we know it!) Additionally we have a great review of Goldfish Swim School, a contributor’s love for a new kitchen gadget and more! Here’s your Week at a Glance! 

July is here, and with that comes watermelon, BBQ, pool parties, music and more. Here are the best activities happening around Orlando and Central Florida for your family in this Guide to July, sponsored by The Goddard School!

Summer is the perfect time for beach trips, barbecues and … budgeting for the holidays? While Christmas and Hanukkah may seem far off, planning and saving now can take the pressure off your wallet in the months to come.

Our Goldfish Swim School experience was fantastic. I fell in love with the play based learning, convenient mom-approved facility, and organized/professional environment. My daughter has gained confidence in her swim skills and most importantly a love for the water while being safe.

I admit it; I can be fickle when it comes to the latest kitchen gadget. For a while I was all about the Spiralizer. Then I was head over heels for the Instant Pot. I’m still fond of the Instant Pot, but our initial daily romance has dulled into an occasional relationship. Next up… the Air Fryer!

I’m a “goals-and-task” type of person, and I spend a lot of time thinking about how to be successful and how not to fall off track. This keeps me on an ultimate high – until I forget how to just relax and enjoy life. Mentally adjusting to motherhood has been a huge battle for me.
