Today is Easter and we all went for a hike after breakfast. If you’re a Christian, you believe today is the day Jesus rose from the dead. It is a time of renewal and celebration. If you’re not a Christian it is a beautiful Sunday in April that ushers in Spring. It is a time…
Maggie has to make a dress out of recycled materials for Earth Day. It’s optional, but of course she wants to participate and not just participate, she wants to have the best dress there. She’s already designed the dress and believe me if she had access to all the materials needed, she’d have already made…
I despise Walmart on a level that is really not healthy, it actually scares some people. I truly believe they represent everything that is wrong with our country. They are the Death Star! I will not shop there and I tell everyone I know that they are contributing to the downfall of America if they……
I’m an only child. There are benefits and drawbacks to being born “the only”. All the typical stereotypes apply.

I’ve been having a bit of an identity crisis lately. Warning, this blog may be a touch whiney and I realize I could be living in Haiti or missing a leg. I know…there are people a lot worse off than I am and quite frankly I’m sick of hearing about it. I want to wallow…
I hate to cook. I’m not sure if I hate it because I’m not good at it, or if I’m not good at because I hate it. Whatever the reason, I would rather clean a toilet bowl than make dinner. Fortunately for me I married a man that loves, that’s right LOVES, to cook and…
