My daughter is my Valentine every year. Even when my husband was around, from the minute my daughter was born, she was my dear little heart. When it became apparent on my daughter’s first Valentine’s Day that my husband was not a good man, I decided right then and there that I didn’t have to […]
Read MoreI know, I know. I am a modern girl living in a modern world. So why does someone need to save me. They don’t need to. I just want them to! I know the feminists out there are banging their heads and thinking I have stepped back into the 50’s with this statement. I don’t […]

I am not sleeping much lately. Too much coffee? Working out late at night? Worried about everything under the sun? Yep. Yep. And yep. I am trying so hard to lose weight and I know that sleep is important. Especially when it comes to weight loss, but sometimes I go through phases where I don’t […]

It’s not that I haven’t blogged because I haven’t wanted to. I have literally been tied up since Friday. We stayed an extra night out-of-state over the weekend because my very sick friend has begun to be very depressed. I can’t blame her. To go from a 6 figure income to being unemployed, to being […]

I have a short fuse and people get on my nerves, but I am KIND more than I should be sometimes and go out of my way for people a lot. I don’t get used and abused or anything because I got rid of my doormat days years ago. But, I want to be liked […]
