For spring break this year, we went to Destin, Florida. Honestly, I don’t remember exactly how we landed on Destin. I do know our oldest didn’t want to go anywhere “lame,” which leaves a lot open to interpretation. I, on the other hand, would have been happy going anywhere—so long as it wasn’t our local… Continue reading I Found Myself in Florida

In Ten Years
A few things have happened since my husband and I married in 2006. We watched my mom beat thyroid cancer. But we lost my grandmother in 2007 at the age of 102.

Kicking Off 2016 With Some Balls
Lots of them, in fact. Balls as far as the eye can see. I do not know when it started. All I know is that for most of my life I have had the humor level of an elementary-age child. Farting is funny. Burping is funny. Balls are funny. Now, I do have decorum. Do… Continue reading Kicking Off 2016 With Some Balls
