Yesterday I went to a conference for work about becoming a happy, confident woman. I wasn’t expecting to come away with so much to think about. One thing we really focused on were our goals. It raised some very good questions that I have been forced to consider. Am I doing what I want? Am […]
I have a high school classmate that has a 2 year old son. He has an undiagnosed condition that lands him in the hospital quite frequently. I follow what she posts as a way to lend support from afar. I can’t imagine all that she is going through, physically and mentally. She also has two […]
I find myself already saying “Remember when things were easy like….”. Laura is only 4 1/2! I shouldn’t be saying that already! I know that I’ll say it even more as she gets older. As a result, I want to chronicle the simple things today that brought so much joy. The day started great. Laura […]
Home has a different meaning to many people. To some it is their house. To some it is where their family is. “Home is where the heart is” is a common saying. To me, it is all the above. Robert and I lived in a house together before we were married, and for a year […]

I called and cancelled my appointment since I felt it would have been a waste of time for the doctor to look at me. Warren’s ears were still a bit cloudy. We changed him […]
I guess I didn’t learn my lesson at Christmas. I went to a margarita party last night. While drinking and playing Apples to Apples, I ate. I ate, and I ate, and I ate. My munchies included peanut butter M&M cookies, honey roasted peanuts, cashews, almonds, and a pumpkin dip. Of course most of these […]
Here is my list of things I am thankful for. They are in no particular order. These are just what came to me. I may edit and add more. health – I wasn’t always healthy. I am so thankful that I have been cancer free for 10 years. I am also taking steps now to […]

It is caught early on and everyone in the show believes that Samantha will be fine. At one point, Samantha and Carrie (one of her best friends) are sitting together talking. […]
