I never intended to work from home. My commutes were always easy. In fact, over my 15 year career with this company, my longest was 8-round-trip miles. When I was offered a promotion two years ago, I asked my husband and then 14-year-old son if they'd be willing to move. My new clients [...]

My First Notre Dame Game
Despite living minutes away from the Notre Dame campus and enjoying all that tailgating has to offer, I have never been to a game. I don't have the connections or finances to afford going to the game. It was one of those things that I always hoped to do and this weekend my day finally [...]
