Everything in our life is a season. Some seasons are longer than others, and some may be harder than others.

No matter what ‘season’ we may be in, we learn tips and tools to help us along the way.

When I was married to a good man that suffered from addiction, that was one of the hardest seasons of my life. I learned all kinds of tips and tools to handle the disease, and some of these, I still use to this day.

Today I’d love to share with you one simple tool that you can use every single day.

I used this tool when I was married to my ex-husband, and I started using it again recently when we moved into our new (99-year-old) house, and it started falling apart.

And listen, we never do judgment in this community. So whether you decide to stay or leave, that’s up to you.
