I remember a particular summer day when I was 9. I stayed up all night the night before. I was outside riding my bike, but I really wanted to jump rope. I couldn’t jump rope because someone ELSE was using it. I circled the person on my bike and finally pulled the jump rope out …
2018 went out like a lion and 2019 came in with that same damn lion. Sunday I woke up and the flu attacked me with a vengeance. I cannot remember feeling so bad. Take your worst hangover ever and times that by ten. That's still not how bad I felt. This went on for hours. …
I think this Elf on the Shelf is creepy. I have had a dislike for that creepy doll since it exploded in popularity many years ago. The doll’s eyes are creepy enough. And to think a doll gets up in the middle of the night and does mayhem to your house is acceptable, are you …

I normally don't write so much sappy stuff, but I just can't help myself. And I wasn't planning on writing another blog so soon, but a karate mom captured a candid …
My last few posts have been more sentimental. I thought I would write one a little more lighthearted. Sundays are for food and football. I love this time of year. I especially love to try new things. For a while I was on a health kick, but one can only eat so many Brussels sprouts, …
