33 years!
I know some might consider it silly to keep celebrating my anniversary even though Jim is in heaven but on this date I changed my name, committed my life to another and began a new family. That family still exists and I am dedicated to its survival. I just cannot ignore a day that forever…

The Hunt
Whew! What a weekend! My kids are gone (Clayton made it to Ukraine & Emily is at Hume Lake) and I am exhausted. My friend Lauren and I had a “mini-vacation today and went to the beach. It was super fun and ended with a Key Lime cupcake at Sprinkles which was TDF! I have…

Have you ever seen one of those memes that talk about the “olden days”, how “you know you are a boomer if…”, or talk about things that kids today will never understand?

This is what I plan to put on my facebook page every day in Dec., but some of you don’t like that I am “being so negative” and a “hater”! I am sorry! It was meant to be a fun way to poke fun at some of the junk that has messed up Christmas. And…
