Crazy Unsettled World
What is going on in this world? Every day I turn on the news and/or open my iPad, and something new is happening in the world that is so negative. Bombings, stabbings and uproars all over the world has left me and everyone else speechless and wondering why??? Why would people choose to want to die? Why […]
Crying
Everyone needs a good cry once in a while. It makes us all feel a bit better to just “let it out.” When life seems to overwhelm us, whether it be from caring for an ill child or elderly relative, a death, or just a buildup of stress, a good cry can cleanse the soul. […]
Summer Childhood Memories
Funny, while watering the flowers this early morning I was thinking of my childhood and how much I loved summer then- it was just as much as I do now.

FREEDOM
Seems appropriate enough to blog about this since Saturday is the big day: The 4th of July and what it means to me. With everything going on in this world, I often think about how lucky we all are to be here in the USA. I know that recently things have been creeping up on […]
Hug Your Loved One
I am declaring a national “Hug Your Loved One Day”. There may even be one already, but for now, any day you decide, is it! Wake up, take a moment to think about it and then hug someone. It can be anyone from your pet to your spouse, but I encourage you to just do it. […]
