I seriously am starting to fear for the future of this country. Whatever happened to common sense? Human being seem to have lost all sense of logical thought and the downfall of humanity is sure to follow. We have manufactures putting labels on coolers that tell parents not to put babies in them. Someone gets burned by hot coffee from a … Read more
There are a lot of opinionated people in this world. To find them, all you have to do is scroll through Facebook for a few minutes. People on Facebook have opinions on all sorts of things and they are more than willing to share them with you. Whether you want those opinions or not. See a good recipe? Bet there … Read more
I like to think I lead a pretty average life. I guess that sounds relatively boring but I’m not a fan of drama and chaos so it works for me.

They all have perfectly coiffed hair, fingernails painted with decorative designs, trendy clothes and matching accessories for their outfit of the day. Most of these fashion bloggers look like they … Read more
I have two teenagers who are at ‘that age’ in life when all of a sudden, ‘cool’ is becoming important. Kids are starting to divide themselves into small groups based on coolness. Herds of mildly uncool teens wander the halls while small packs of ‘really cool’ kids stand in the corner and silently mock them. At least silent mocking doesn’t … Read more
