Most of the time, divorce is a negotiating process. It’s like haggling and, if you’re like me, and haggling always made you super uncomfortable, don’t worry. It’s really not so bad.

Negotiating Your Virginia Divorce
Another Valentine’s Day has come and gone. I know some people really get worked up about this holiday in particular, but I really have never been a big fan. I’m not single, but, even when I was, I always kind of felt like the holiday was a good reason to stay in, rather than go...
For our third year running, we’re sponsoring a Girl’s Night Out event for Valentine’s Day! We actually call it our “Un-Valentine’s Day” party, because we don’t let it be all about hearts and cupids and candy but about sisterhood instead. Do you hate Valentine’s Day? Do you love it?

Emotionally, physically, and financially, it can be...
It’s that time of year again! The holidays are quickly approaching, which has got us thinking about our annual Girl’s Night Out Christmas Party! Last year, we met up at the Crab Shack in Newport News—in our terribly tacky Christmas sweaters. (I have to admit, even though I was one of the driving forces behind...
Today is Halloween which means, to me, at least, the kick off of the holiday season. From here on out, it seems like everything is holiday themed. And, don’t get me wrong, I love it. I love every single minute of it. This year, in fact, it’s even more special to me, because I’m pregnant...
