Happy Birthday, Katie Butler!

From Team JAB

Affectionately known at the Team JAB headquarters as "the money girl," Katie is living proof that accountants CAN be fun and exciting. With 10 years of public accounting experience, including a senior management position at KPMG, Katie narrowly escaped life in the corporate world when she joined JustAskBoo in 2008. Let's just say we "count" on her for just about everything! We wish Katie a fantastic birthday and a happy, healthy year with her husband and four children.

Housing Help
From Anonymous:  REPLY
I would like to thank all of the JABBERS who responded to my post about my son who was recently diagnosed with testicular cancer. He is now in need of information regarding rental assistance since budget cuts have resulted in a freeze on Section 8 housing vouchers. If you have any suggestions or recommendations on where he can turn to for assistance, please contact me. Thank you!


Afternoon Family Assistants
From Sharon Radell:  REPLY
Back to school is upon us! For many parents, the school year can mean hectic nights trying to do homework, dinner, ball practices, scouts, music lessons and so much more! Afternoon family assistants (aka after-school nannies) can make keeping up with the school year calendar a lot less stressful. They can assist children with homework, drive them to activities, help with dinner preparations and get the household organized to do it all again the next day. Come home from work and spend quality time with your kids instead of hustling them from one task to another. Click HERE for more information.*

Get Help for Your Child's Back to School Anxiety
From Jill Ehrenreich-May, Ph.D.:  REPLY
All children occasionally feel worried or sad.  However, some children feel so scared or down that it interferes with their family life, their school work, their sleep habits, and their self-esteem. These feelings can become even more intense at the beginning of the school year, which brings new challenges and worries for many children. The University of Miami's Child and Adolescent Mood and Anxiety Treatment Program offers state-of-the-art, individual and group treatment for children (ages 6-13) and adolescents with anxiety or depression, which may be available at low-cost through on-going research studies.
