How often have you heard, or even said yourself, “life is short” ? Trust me. It is. Last week I read on Facebook someone posted about a death of a person I knew. I was in shock. I reached out to two mutual friends. They hadn’t heard and I don’t think they believed me. (One …
They say life is a rollercoaster. If you know me, you know I absolutely HATE rollercoasters. Motion sickness is horrific. I can't even watch them Today's blog is reaching the highest hill, going downhill, but instead of remaining on the tracks to take a curve, the carts are flying off the tracks and crashing at …
How do I sum up my Christmas this year? I would have to say it's as close enough to perfect as it could be compared to the year I have had. My niece, Miss Priss, as I have called her since she was born, and I reunited this year with my brother's (her dad) cancer …
I can't believe tomorrow will be three weeks since Jim passed. I miss my brother more than I ever imagined. We talked every single day for so long. Even last night I saw something I wanted to ask him about...I went as far as pulling out my phone to text. As soon as I saw …

My word what a past couple days. I have not been in a blog writing mood. I couldn't wrap my head around everything I'm juggling to put my thoughts into words. That's just life. It's reality. Any one of us could easily look up and say, "Why me, Lord?". Instead, I remind myself to look …
Summer is at its best today in the midwest: hot and humid. I love it. I'm not a fan of snow and ice so this is just fantastic. I sat outside this afternoon while Gracie Mae huffed and puffed making her go potty. That little diva just cannot deal. While I was sitting outside, I …
I have been told different stories of what people were doing when I was born. My dad always calls on my birthday at the exact moment I was born to tell me his version. I remember my mom would tell me how difficult of a birth I was for her. Lucky her! My brother, Chubs, …
