Logic never wins. Especially when you’re dealing with an 11 year-old boy who thinks he can out-logic you, the parent. Peanut had a four day weekend and it was filled with logic issues, none successful. First. Don’t debate breakfast with me. Trying to tell me you’ve eaten breakfast when all you’ve done is grabbed a cheese stick […]

I’m a little over the old design. I’m ready for a change and it’s time for me to update. So, sorry, right now everything is plain and white, but over the next week, I’m going to be updating the site and making it gorgeous. I could have taken it off line or worked on the […]

December 22, 2011 by 3 Comments
I met a boy who broke my heart. He also touched me deeply. His unbridled sense of enthusiasm and welcoming demeanor was at odds with the bad stuff he has encountered in his young life. Joe (not his real name) befriended me at the Thompson Child & Family Focus Holiday Chapel Service. As I took my […]

I’m sitting here writing this post. I’m in shorts and a tank top with the deck door open, ceiling fan on high and I’m sweating. Did I mention it’s 45 degrees out? Welcome to peri-menopause. I’m only 38 and didn’t think this could be happening to me, but it makes a lot of sense. I’ve […]
