My Story

Hi Everyone!

So, here's my story.  I work as a trainer in lean healthcare, lean office, and leadership skills at Northwestern Michigan College, in the beautiful Traverse City, Michigan.  I love my job.  My office works directly with companies to provide lean training both off site and in the workplace, I don't train any "college students."  That was a previous life.

I moved to northern Michigan in 2008 when I married, my hubby, DH (Dear Hubby, right?).  I now have two boys -- 3 1/2 and 1 1/2 (which is why there were no posts for a year or two!). We are having a ball!  

Since returning to work, part-time (3 days a week), I have started applying the concepts I train to improve work processes to our home.  For a long time I've thought of writing a book on how to apply lean concepts to the household, and then I figured -- why batch it?  Why not do small pieces in a blog!?  This comment will make more sense when you learn more about lean!  For now, BATCHING = BAD!  

So here we are.  I cannot wait to share some things we've implemented around our house to make things run a little more smoothly and even more than that I cannot wait to hear about what YOU have done to make your family and household more successful.

Welcome to the journey.....
