Two Musketeers And An Annoying Sister
You know, it wasn’t always easy growing up as the youngest, and only girl in the family. My brother CJ is 8 years older than me, and my brother Barry is 5 years older. They called me Brat for so … Continue reading
Rated EAYA for Early Afternoon Young Adult
I get my day going every morning with the 70s station. It’s just classic; everyone from Elton John to Olivia Newton- John (no relation) to John Denver. But the morning music has recently become mourning music. At 6:30 in the … Continue reading

Bottoms Up!
I am, without a doubt, the clumsiest person in the world. Many of you have witnessed some of my more magical moments; there have been so many it’s hard to keep track. But there are several that are particularly memorable. … Continue reading
Follow Your Dreams
Some people are lucky enough to do something they enjoy, and earn a good living doing it. I am one of those very fortunate people. Then there are the extremely lucky people who get to do something they absolutely love. … Continue reading

A Parody of Ourselves
I saw my 19 year old nephew recently, and he was surprised to hear that my husband and I now have 4 cats. Sean’s deadpan response was “You do realize you’ve become a parody of yourselves?” Yes, we realize it. … Continue reading
