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.
Few people in this world will say their life is perfect as it is and they wouldn’t change a thing; most everyone wants to live a better life. For example, there are plenty of things I’d like to do to live a better life, but that doesn’t mean I’m unhappy with the life I currently […] More
Listening to life advice from people you did not ask advice of is not something you enjoy that often. However, you will always find yourself in a situation where advice is being offered to you no matter how much you do not want to hear it. Right now is one of those situations: I am […] More
There are some things in life that make absolutely no sense until they just make sense (does that make sense?) What I’m trying to say is that sometimes you are faced with a situation that you are not even aware is a situation until you are aware it is a situation. Okay, still not making […] More
Perfection does not exist, which would be devastating news for Bree Van De Camp if Desperate Housewives were still on the air. Every woman has a flaw; some have fewer than others, but everyone still has a flaw. What if I told you that your flaws might not be quite as bad as you think? […] More
Everyone has that one friend who is perpetually late. Even if you tell her that you’re meeting for drinks at 6 and you’re really meeting at 6:30, she’s still late. You love her, even though you hate her lack of ability to care about time. The next time you know you’ll be sitting at the […] More
There’s nothing worse than bloating right before you go to the beach or an hour before you leave to celebrate your anniversary in that gorgeous new designer dress you spent a lot of money on. Bloating not only makes you feel fat, it makes you feel insecure and it completely zaps your level of confidence. […] More
You found the man of your dreams, he put the ring of your dreams on your finger while asking the question you dreamed of your entire life, and now it’s time to plan the wedding of your dreams. Many women look forward to planning their wedding, only to realize that it is far more stressful […] More
Anyone who knows more than two people – or has any sort of social media account – has encountered a person they are sure is only 16-years-old only to find out that person is really a 30-year-old woman with children and a life. The realization is often shocking considering it takes a lot to make […] More
The same thing has been said a million times: life is stressful. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to de-stress no matter where you are and no matter what you’re doing. De-stressing is a great way to feel better, relax and enjoy your life to the fullest. Since everyday can’t be a spa day with […] More
The term, “I slept like a baby” is one far too many people use incorrectly. In fact, those who use that term to describe a great night’s sleep are the ones without kids. Of this I am certain. When someone says to me that they slept like a baby I automatically assume they had a […] More
