Dry-Erase Board Paint for Your Room
This gives kids an entire wall to draw on. Good-bye blue paint.
“Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.”

Goodbye Dominik, we’ll miss you!
Generations after generations, our family has never had a tragedy of suicide. It was unheard of. Until last week, when my 16-year-old cousin killed himself in a small village in Croatia.
I grew up with his dad, his uncles and aunts, grandparents; but I didn’t know him. I’ve never met him. I never spoke to him on the phone. I never even saw a picture of him. I didn’t know his name until today. Dominik. And still, I MISS HIM!
I’m looking at his pictures now, wishing that I had met him before he died. Even though I’ve never met him, I’ll never forget him.
If it happened to our family, it can happen to any family. I have a 3-year-old and a 4-month-old, and Dominik’s death has forever changed my perception of life.
I hope it changes you too. It can happen to anyone, any family. Look out for warning signs (see mind map) and get help before it’s too late.
Income Tax Mind Map
With the new year comes a new tax season. As you begin to prepare for your income taxes, it helps to have a checklist. Personally, I use a mind map because it allows me to take notes and capture more information than a checklist. This mind map can serve as a basic template, which you can customize to fit your needs. I hope you find it useful for organizing your information and preparing your tax return.
