Honoring Our Veterans Because All Gave Some, But Some Gave All
Just because you can’t see the visible scars of war on a Veteran, doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Some come home physically unscathed from a war but are hiding the real scars that lie within their heads. Please be kind to them and help them if you can. Because it’s their sacrifice that allows you […]
The Most Famous Halloween Light Show In The Country Is In My Area!
My husband found this video over the weekend of a pretty cool Halloween light show set to music. The best part? The guy lives in our area so we can go by and see this in person. Kevin Judd has gotten over 5 million hits on YouTube and the band LMFAO shot a video at […]

Taking It Back So I Can Be A Better Moi
Ever notice how society expects women to do it all? We are supposed to be wife, mother, breadwinner, chef, chauffeur, doctor, accountant, maid, teacher…should I go on? Because of these demands, we are all stretched so thin, I’m surprised we haven’t ripped apart. Well I’m surprised I haven’t ripped apart, I should say. Then we […]
Reflection
Summer is nearly over and the Autumn is about to begin. It is my time for reflection. This is the time of year I love. The season is about to change, the kids are going back to school, the world slows down a bit and I start to reminisce about my life and what has […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…{California Gas Prices}
This is why we need to move out of California: Not only is everything uber expensive, but it’s filled with idiots who don’t know how to properly use decimal points. For more Wordless Wednesdays/Wordful Wednesdays, please visit 5 Minutes For Mom and WordlessWednesday.com {HQ}.
Swimming, Sinking, Floating
Swimming, sinking, floating. That is my life. Just getting my head above water, then having it pushed under again by some unseen force. Coming up for air and floating for a bit, then repeating the cycle all over again. I’m afraid I may not come up for air one of these times. It’s annoying. It’s […]
I Want To Swim In The Caribbean Ocean
That’s right, I want to swim in the Caribbean Ocean. Why? Because that means I would have gotten two things done off my Bucket List: vacationing on a tropical island AND flying through The Bermuda Triangle. It is not weird. Shut it. Who doesn’t want to fly through The Bermuda Triangle and live to tell […]
My Favorite Quotes
I was going through some old draft posts, trying to clean things up a bit and found these quotes that I never published. Some are funny, some are thought provoking and still others are introspective. I hope you enjoy them. Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong. ~ Oscar Wilde Better be […]
Don Quixote’s Windmills
I can sort of see why Don Quixote thought these were giants who needed to be eradicated – in a sort of delusional, out of his mind way. I actually think they are beautiful. But drunk on Spanish wine and suffering from what was likely paranoid schizophrenia, I can see how the mistake could be made. […]
Neutrogena Wet Skin Sunscreen
When I was contacted about doing a review of Neutrogena Wet Skin Sunscreen, I jumped at the chance. I have been using Neutrogena products since I was a teenager. Face soaps, moisturizer, hand and body lotion – the whole line – so I already know how good their products are. I am a white girl. […]
Vintage Fan
I love photography and images that are emotive. I love things that are vintage. I also love pictures that are taken at unusual angles. I fell in love with this photo and the fact that is matches the NaBloPoMo theme for June. {Yes, I have full license for this image. It’s from a stock image site. […]
