I’m kicking myself like crazy today. Somehow I missed the memo that the Northern Lights would be visible in my neck of the woods this past weekend. I don’t know how I missed it because now it seems like it was EVERYWHERE. My allergies were kicking my ass most of the week, so maybe I was just in a Benadryl… Read more »
It’s been a while since I did a “rapid fire” post and if there was ever a time to do one, it’s now. I took on a new project at work starting in December, but really kicking off after the first of the year. It’s been scary, rewarding, challenging, and even a little bit fun sometimes. The good news is… Read more »
Here is another holiday you can sink your teeth into- it’s National English Muffin Day! English muffins have been around since the 11th Century and yes, they did originate in modern day England. They were first written about in the United States in 1894 and have been popular ever since. I personally enjoy them with peanut butter, or as part… Read more »
I have a lifelong issue with being on time. I’m not SUPER late to anything, but I often show up at the very last minute or a couple minutes late. I am not alone in this. My entire family has a habit of being late. My entire dad’s side had dairy cattle and cattle KNOW when you want to be… Read more »
Today is one of the few holidays I can’t with good conscience tell you to celebrate. It’s “Don’t Go to Work Unless it’s Fun Day”. Now, maybe you are one of the few people who genuinely find your work fun. Congrats. There are parts of my job I really like, but I would stop short of calling it “fun”. I… Read more »

We are on the verge of witnessing artificial intelligence turn everything from customer service to the evening news completely upside down. Beyonce made a country album. Bravo Troop 5-15 CAV has a… Read more »
Today is National Ag day! As many of you know, I grew up on a small dairy farm. Many of my friends growing up lived on farms too. It was a great way to grow up. I learned about hard work. I learned about taking care of God’s creatures. I learned about the circle of life. I learned about the… Read more »
Today is sweet! It’s National Oreo day! I’m so old I remember when there was only one kind of Oreo. Yes, it’s true. We didn’t use to have Double Stuff and Thins and 27 different flavors. And we CERTAINLY didn’t have different colors. I will go so far as to say that there are too many kinds of Oreos. I… Read more »
Today we celebrate those friends we never see in person- and maybe have never met in person. They are our internet friends! Social media is responsible for a lot of bad things, but it has done some good things too. It allows us to stay in contact with people we used to live close to and/ or used to work… Read more »
