Boy do my kids need a break. And so do I. For some reason this school year, it seems like a few of our usually scheduled days off have disappeared. The Indians are getting restless I tell you! And it’s not pretty! LOL
As you read this, I will probably be in panic mode, hoping to [...]

Okay, I’m not one to gripe. Okay, I am, but..
Men drive me crazy sometimes. And not in a good way.
Take my husband. Now, there is lots to love about the man. He’s good-looking, smart, and can totally handle himself. BUT, he aggravates the fire out of me when we get ready to go on vacation. [...]

Have you ever heard the term “good things come to those who wait”? My mom has told me this many times throughout my life, but I would place my hands on my hips and say, “I just don’t have time to wait, Mama. I want it right now.” LOL And now we laugh about it [...]

My first conference was a little scary. I [...]

And it’s one, two, three strikes you’re out. At least as far as baseball goes. LOL How many strikes do we get in the writing ballpark? I really need to know because I suck when it comes to trying to tell someone else what my story is about. Now take that, add the fact I [...]
