I am well aware that it’s been over a month since I last posted.  It’s not for lake of trying.  I’ve just been annoyed with social media in general.  All the hate from BOTH sides of any of the current political debate is enough to may me want to spend the rest of my phone contract playing Candy Crush.

OR, Why this Christian isn’t sad the Duggars got cancelled and why you shouldn’t be either. I am simply astounded on the number of people who are upset by the cancellation of “19 Kids and Counting”.  I do not share this opinion and I’m going to explain why.

The post where I lose people

      No Comments on The post where I lose people

 I am not a moron.  I am not clueless about the issues facing our country.  But, I am an undecided voter. How is that possible?  It’s pretty simple actually- my personal beliefs don’t fall nicely into either side of the aisle.  And I bet there are a lot of people like me who are just too scared of the ridicule… Read more »
