Personal Finance and Lifestyle Guide
Tiffany Raiford is a lifelong Floridian, wife to my high school sweetheart and mother of four littles (two girls and boy/girl twins...no, they are not identical and yes, I'm sure). My kids love to whine, so I love to wine. My loves include nap time, bed time, date night, travel and evenings and weekends when my husband is home because he handles all diaper changes.
Who doesn’t love attending a wedding with an open bar? Most of us adore the moment we walk into a wedding reception and realize that drinks are on the bride and groom. It may not be a make or break moment for the guests, but it’s always a nice treat for those of us who […] More
Tension and stress simply are not words you use to describe your child. However, you might be missing something vital by not noticing the fact that your child’s tension and stress levels might be raised. If your child has been behaving like less than a perfect angel as of late, chances are good that she […] More
New moms have a lot going on. Being pregnant for 40 weeks, not sleeping well most of those weeks, carrying around a second person 24 hours a day, and then giving birth can have a pretty big impact on a woman. She might not feel up to par immediately after becoming a new mom, whether […] More
Men, and women for that matter, are naturally flirtatious. Maybe not all of them, but a lot of them. So, what are you to do when you are the significant other of a man who flirts all the time? Do you not care because you do the same thing when you’re out and about and […] More
Let’s talk time. Time is always, always of the essence. Time is something we simply do not have enough of. Time is something that we need to learn to respect. Time is something so many people have absolutely zero concept of and I’m going to be completely, unashamedly honest right now; I cannot stand when […] More
How many times have you invited someone to your home for a dinner party or event only to wish you hadn’t because that person is a horrible guest? Whether you are just visiting someone for a few hours, attending a gathering at someone’s house, or staying with friends and family for a while, you need […] More
Your diet doesn’t just affect your weight; it also affects other aspects of your appearance. Your diet affects your skin, your attitude, and your feelings about yourself. That’s why it’s so important to eat a healthy diet. Your overall health is more important than your appearance, but the way you feel about your appearance is […] More
Worry is something we all do. Some of us do it more than others and some of us only do it when we have no other choice. It’s not something everyone does all the time, but at some point in life, everyone has a worry or two. As you get older, there are a greater […] More
One of the most heartbreaking things that could ever happen is the occasion when a close friend moves away. I’m not talking about to the next street or three miles down the road; I’m talking far, far away. Like another state. Or another country. Or across this country. When your close friend moves, it is […] More
Everyone wants a little respect. Aretha Franklin said it herself. All we want is a little respect. If you don’t feel like you get enough respect, you might want to do something about that. Say, for example, your mom doesn’t respect the fact that you are a mother and a wife and that you can […] More
Negative people have this uncanny ability to just suck the life right out of you – the happiness, at the very least. Unfortunately, it appears that negative people are everywhere. I know them, you know them, your grandmother knows them. So, when everything in your life is good, or you’re simply the kind of person […] More
Some people just aren’t people, people (are you picking up what I’m putting down?). Some people might be the nicest people in the world, but they just aren’t a people person. Perhaps that some just genuinely do not like others, and perhaps some have simply forgotten how to interact with others in the digital age […] More
