I’ve put together an article roundup of a number of things I’ve been reading lately to help get your Monday started right (or give you something to do while you’re pretending to work). There’s some interesting articles here including why you should teach your children to swear. The last one is the most exciting if you know someone that lives in the UK! (Dibs half if you win the chateau!)


Why you should let your kids swear according to science

Why You Should Teach Your Kids To Swear, According To Science

This is a super interesting topic and once I looked into it I fell down a rabbit hole of studies. Apparently swearing has been linked to better vocabulary, honesty, better credibility and better camaraderie among friends.

Fortnite is the latest online game taking over the teen and tween (and adult?) gaming world. If you’re not sure what Fortnite, or Fortnite Battle Royale is, it’s a co-op survival game, where the point of the game is to survive. Local blogger and top-rated radio host for XL 103 Buzz Bishop, shares a great post about the pros and cons of letting your kids play. Read it here.

Win a French Chateau

Win A French Chateau!

A woman in the UK is selling tickets to win her French chateau. The nine-bedroom château de Cautine is on a 34-acre lot in Dordogne, France, and is complete with a swimming pool, a cottage, two barns and a stable. Unfortunately, you need to be a resident of England, Scotland or Wales to enter. All proceeds are going to charity, so if you have friends or family across the pond get them to buy you (and me!) a ticket! Check it out at https://www.winafrenchchateau.co.uk/
