A buddy of mine told me a hilar­i­ous story recently that sent me into hys­ter­ics. I asked to share it on here and he so grace­fully said yes. A lit­tle back­ground: Dur­ing his lunches, he takes Span­ish lessons, via Skype, while in his truck. Odd dude…I know.   Span­ish les­son today was describ­ing how loud the […]

I can’t stand the price of Chest of Draw­ers. And if you get the cheaper ones, they’re made with ply­wood and plas­tic. Also, I’m a sucker for things that are multi-functional. So when I saw that Tar­get had these cubby draw­ers on sale, I jumped on it. The boys use it for all cloth­ing except […]

As a par­ent, it’s very easy to imme­di­ately think of my chil­dren when I think of a bless­ing or gift. But to dis­cover a hid­den gift is rare indeed. I have iden­ti­fied a hid­den bless­ing that in real­ity isn’t so hid­den as much as I just didn’t notice it enough. Most peo­ple are famil­iar with […]

My grand­fa­ther cel­e­brated his 93rd birth­day last Fri­day. I love that. He’s lived 93 years. Looks like he’s in his 70’s and acts a lot younger! He works at a local golf course and still golfs 18 holes once a week.  He had to retake his dri­vers license test and when I called to see […]

I have dis­cov­ered the love of tweak­ing. Specif­i­cally in regards to my blog. Since I redesigned it myself…trip­ping all the way through it…I find myself adding a lit­tle this and chang­ing a lit­tle that. I’m finally cre­at­ing my very own Franken­stein! Mwa­ha­ha­haha! I love research­ing pic­tures, but for what­ever rea­son I get all crazy look­ing for […]
