Today is our 14th wedding anniversary, not really a "monumental" anniversary but any anniversary you can celebrate is monumental and I think now more than ever, we realize this. We have been together almost 18 years this October but dating is always the easier part of the relationship, so those years almost don't count, do… Continue reading 14
I recently talked about sharing what is in the notes app I keep on my phone and some of you had no idea that you could either keep notes in your phone or that there was even an app to do such a thing, to begin with. This shocked me because I am always late… Continue reading The Notes You Keep

I have had a torrid love affair with wine my whole adult life. When I began socially acceptable drinking (ie-legally), I opted for wine coolers. They were just enough to get you drunk, affordable, and looked really good in your hand when chair dancing at your favorite club. See? No hangovers that I… Continue reading Wine and Migraines and Succulents (Oh My)

Some of you keep Christmas lists and things you want to buy on Amazon in your phone… Continue reading Kick-Ass Band Names- The Sequel

So, a couple of things have happened since my husband and I got married on May 27th, 2006.
We have seen a loved one fight cancer and win.
But we lost an amazing grandma.
Then we gained two equally amazing new human beings.
We watched family members move far away.
But then we got two members back again and we aren’t letting them go this time.
