This past week there has been a lot of talk online about Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi announcing their engagement.

I agree with the majority of folks… Read more »
My husband go out to eat a lot. Probably more than we should, but that’s another topic for another day. Between the two of us we have quite a few bank accounts. Some of them are joint accounts and some are not (this is important). So, there are quite a few different options when it comes time to pay for… Read more »
Why is there a day for those dumb little paper stickers we all hate at meetings and reunions? It’s not REALLY about the tag, but rather the name itself.

Some of my favorite days include the day Daylight Saving time ends, the first day of the NFL season, and Christmas. But today has become another one close to my heart.

Pat is fine with me having an occasional cocktail. He is fine with anyone drinking in moderation- he just chooses not to himself. I think most people… Read more »
Are you like me? Do you have, like, 3 passwords that you use for everything even thought EVERYONE tells you it’s a bad idea? Then today is for you. Please just do it. Yes, it’s a huge pain in the ass. Yes, it’s hard to think of new passwords all the time. But it’s important. So just do it.
Today is Spouse’s Day! It’s easy to start to take your spouse for granted after you’ve been together for a long time. They’ve just always been there. Everyone wants to feel wanted and appreciated. You do, so of course your spouse does too. You don’t have to make a grand gesture today. Maybe you just tell them something you love… Read more »
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 »
Hi 16 year old me. It’s 51 year old me. I’m writing you to tell you not to give up. I know things REALLY suck right now. You’re getting bullied as school. You don’t know where you want to go to college. Your best friend seems to hate you half the time. You feel like you are all alone and… Read more »
