Where has Charlie Brown gone? It's only days before Halloween and I find out that after 54 consecutive years, the Charlie Brown Halloween special has been taken off the air as well as the rest of the rest of the Charlie Brown movies created by Charles M. Schultz. I remember as a small child looking forward to watching, “It’s the...
Cow cuddling you exclaim? Oh yes, this is a real thing. Not a petting zoo type of atmosphere, but a therapeutic session with mental health benefits. Since the pandemic has begun, we have lost the ability to touch and hug each other leaving us isolated and stressed out. I don’t know about you, but I for one have been...
So being quarantined inside the house might be driving you and your family crazy, but if you think about it, it just gives us a great opportunity to connect with our family. Last night we had game night and my teen and I had a blast. We played Checkers-Some large ones I found. We played the Game of Life and...
This is so
funny, you have to listen to this”, I heard my daughter telling her girlfriend

Recently I spent several days on vacation with some close friends. Even on vacation I realized quickly that the boys were doing more chores than my daughter the same age was. Of course she threw her trash away, but that was about it because I do everything at the house. It was mentioned that I really need to start making...
So believe it or not, I had been walking on a fractured ankle for a month. I knew there was a problem. I had walked with a neighbor two miles as we normally did every night and we had gone so fast that I suggested we do another round around the park – another two miles. At the end...
JUST TEXT ME- ok? Just text me back. It bugs the heck out of me when I text someone and they call me right back. Yes I am next to the phone but why call? Why does it bug me so badly? If I have texted you it is because I don’t have time for a long conversation and I probably...
Seven years now and I am still single. It’s Christmas time and the Hallmark Channel is playing movie after movie of finding true love at Christmas. What if you don’t want it? Don't need it.
