Can you believe we are almost into August?  This summer is just flying by, and we have been so busy with vacations and pool days, and soaking up some summer fun, that it’s crazy to think we will soon be back to school shopping.  This is the reason why some of you may have noticed a brief lull in the Jaime’s Jems you are used to seeing posted on Mondays.  Sorry to any of you who were looking for them.  Unfortunately, my future blog posts will not be as regular as they have been in the past.  As we all sometimes do, I have over committed, and have found I have not been able to keep on top of my posting the way I would have liked to.  Trust me, I still have lots to say and share, but the TIME to get it all out to you in a humorous and insightful way, is what I don’t have.  So, my blogs going forward will be brought to you more in a “Guest Appearance” fashion, as opposed to a regular, weekly insight or tip.  I do appreciate the opportunity to share my thoughts with all of you, and thank all of those who have read and commented on my posts.  You haven’t heard the last of me!

In closing, I did want to share one great tip I recently heard, that I thought was a super idea!  Coffee drinkers out there – and I know this will apply to most – what do you do with left over coffee, when you’ve made too much?  Pop it into some ice cube trays and freeze it!  Then when you need a pick me up, and something to cool you off, make an iced coffee using your frozen cubes instead of regular ones, which will ultimately water down your drink.  Brilliant, right?

Hope you all are enjoying your summer and keeping cool.  Until we meet again……
