I am sharing it on my blog (with her permission) because it touched me so deeply. My little sis is wise beyond her years. It is written... Continue Reading →
Last night I rented Beauty and the Beast on Xfinity for my granddaughter, Emily. I think she has watched it 3 times already and we're probably in for at least one more viewing today I'm sure.

Well this self-inflicted challenge has certainly been interesting; had to dig up things I haven’t thought about in awhile. Though some of it was challenging I am pleased to say that none of it was too hard to handle. Growth and healing at its finest I’d say. Now I need some more ideas to help me... Continue Reading →
Zaftig Well here we are, finally! I can’t believe I made it through the alphabet! I will have one last post tomorrow to wrap up this silly little A – Z challenge. I was trying to find some Z words that would be different from the normal everyday Z words we use and I came... Continue Reading →

Whew! This is challenge is almost over! I really struggled with this one! As I’m sure you already know, there are really not very many words beginning with the letter X. Well, there are only one and a half pages of X words out of 1342 in my Webster’s Dictionary so I had to get... Continue Reading →
Today’s post is going to be a little different. I am not specifically referencing the “W” words in this post but am trying to relay just one of the bazillion stories of why I felt… Worthless, Weak, Weary From 1990 until mid 2006, I worked for a health insurance company.
