No Kings Day
This President’s Day is not like any we have experienced before. It is not just a day where we might have a day off from school or work. Not just a day where we honor the memory of presidents throughout America’s history. This President’s Day needs to be a day of protest that our country…

Holiday Spirit
I spent yesterday completely infested with holiday spirit. The whole day was baking cookies, wrapping gifts, and watching Christmas movies, which yes included the greatest Christmas movie of all time, Die Hard. (Shush all you naysayers, it takes place at Christmas hence Christmas movie.) Anyway, this last month since Thanksgiving has been very busy and…

The Yearly Smash
This week I had my annual mammogram. The yearly smashing of the boobs. My mom tells me that the exam isn’t nearly as painful as they used to be, but I still hate it. I find the whole ordeal to be uncomfortable, to stand in front of a stranger and bare your body, only for…

America, The Embarrassment

Home Sweet Home
As much as I love to travel, I love coming home as well. No one is happier when I return home, than my dogs are. From the minute I open the door they show me how much they have missed me, if only everyone would greet me with such enthusiasm. Although if people slobbered on…

Onward!
Steve is the planner in our marriage, especially on our vacations. He is very good at researching places to go and all the details of a trip like transportation and accommodations. As he is very interested in history, every battlefield and historical site near our destination is added to his list of places to visit.…

Time To Fly
My husband and I love to travel. Seeing new and different places makes us happy. We usually go on at least two trips a year. Sometimes they are only for a week but one trip tends to be for a longer time. Tomorrow we leave for three weeks in Europe. We will be boarding our…

Stop the Aging!
I don’t know about everyone else but I don’t like getting older. I hate the body aches and the stiffness in the morning. The fact that it so much easier to put on weight and so much harder to lose it is a giant frustration. But the thing I hate the most about getting older…
