Mom-isms
As we ease on into Mother's Day weekend, (YES - we get to claim the whole weekend in the 21st century!) I was entertained to find a list of frequent 'Mom-isms' that people remember their moms said to them. Check out the top three:

How To Slow Your Racing Thoughts
If you are like me, you may -at times- realize you have too many irons in the fire.
Too many open tabs on your computer.
Full of 'life' up to your eyeballs.
However you look at it, sometimes you might need to take a break and center yourself...
Too Many PEEPS?!?
This story makes my teeth hurt.
The Human Library
If you're like me, you had to do a discount double check on that title. No click-bait here, friends! I'm hopeful you will join me at the Rochester Public Library for a chance to talk to someone outside your regular circle of friends and acquaintances...
