What Is Happening?    I don’t understand.   It keeps happening.    And then when I think I’ve seen it all, it happens again.  Then I think, ok this is going to be addressed properly and we’ve hit rock bottom. But we haven't, because then it happens again. I’m having difficulty wrapping my mind around … Continue reading What Is Happening? →

"Mama said there'd be days like this." Did she though? I'm pretty sure my mom never said that. 😁 My mother has said lots of things but I really don't think that's one of them. Then again, is this meant in a literal or a figurative sense? Because it's certainly something a mom would say, … Continue reading Mama Said →

I am a Florida Gators fan, and I live in GA Bulldog territory. Today the Gators played the Bulldogs.....mildly rival teams in case you're not a … Continue reading Fan Gear! →

One other thing for today! 😁 So....its October and Fall with the change of seasons. The weather is gorgeous and a tiny bit chilly, right? Except it isn't. At least not in my neck of the woods.

But I'll just have to take a few brief minutes to share a thought or two...new questions that have recently come to mind. The … Continue reading Unwelcome Ads? →
