People are People
There are two things I think everyone learned this week. #1 We as a nation CAN still come together. Everyone was on team Damar Hamlin this week. Didn’t matter who you voted for, or if you knew anything about football. Everyone was rooting for that young man to recover. #2 Famous people are people. We look at celebrities- be they… Read more »
Festival of Sleep Day!
We’ve done it! We survived the holidays! Now it’s time to catch on up on your sleep. Proper sleep is very important to your health. Did you know that, as long as you have access to clean water, you will die from lack of sleep before you die from lack of food?!? Don’t take any changes with your health- get… Read more »
Something Old, Something New
There isn’t any time of year more steeped in tradition than the holiday season. The vast majority of families have things they do every year. Maybe it’s a certain meal. Maybe it’s a specific place they gather to celebrate. Maybe it’s an event like caroling or volunteering. These are things that people look forward to every year. My dad’s side… Read more »
I’m Thankful
We just celebrated Thanksgiving, so everyone is (or at least should) be thinking about everything they have to be thankful for. It’s been a lot time since I’ve done a thankful list, so I think it’s high time to rectify that! Please note these are in no particular order 🙂 #1 Pat. My husband is my best friend and my… Read more »
Watermelon Day
Typically I choose holidays to highlight that I want to celebrate myself. Today is an exception. Today is watermelon day. And I hate watermelon. I know this is crazy talk to a lot of people. Most people like watermelon. My nephew LOVES it. But I don’t. It smells OK, but it feels weird against my teeth when I bite into… Read more »
National Selfie Day
If there was ever a holiday that shows how much things have changed since I was a kid, it’s this one. Today is National Selfie Day. Oh sure, we tried taking the occasional selfie back in the day of film cameras. But we had NO idea of they would turn out until we finished the roll and got the pictures… Read more »
Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Day
This might be seen as a odd day for me to celebrate because I HATE rhubarb. I mean I REALLY hate it. I don’t like the way it looks or the way it smells. I don’t even like the looks of the plant. It looks JUST like burdock plant. This is clearly God telling us to stay the HELL away… Read more »
My Nephew is Very Smart!
My nephew Luke (shown with his band director Mr. Lawrence) is graduating from high school in two weeks. This is giving me ALL kinds of feels. I am super proud of him for all kinds of reasons. He is a good kid! He is going to be going to technical college in the fall to study welding. At least one… Read more »
Buying Fun = Worth It
My husband and I just got back from Planet ComiCon in Kansas City. We had a great time! My husband collects all kinds of autographs from professional wrestlers to actors and musicians. I’m not as interested in the hobby as he is, but sometimes there is someone at these shows I do get excited to meet. And, happily, most of… Read more »
