My biggest bet peeve is when someone is directing you to do something. Not just once, but over and over and over again. What a nag. Ugh. I mean, I will do it eventually. Just calm down. Fun fact. I am the nagger....to myself. I can't deny that I become an obsessive...

With the state of our country right now, I am not sure why I am surprised. Everything that is currently occurring is like April Fools Day and the TV show PUNKED, got together and had a baby. You can't make this shit up. But, this isn't about our political climate, it...

When I took my new job as a crisis counselor, I really didn't know what to expect. Of course, I knew that there would be troubling phone calls that would impact me. I knew that there would be times where I would need to include other team members in an effort to...

Sometimes I question whether God scammed me on my brain power. Most of the time, I appear to have it together, but then there are those other moments, I question my brain function. Here is one example. When Brian had his coronary event at the beginning of the year,...

Life can certainly move at a fast pace. It is the illusion that I can control it, but the reality is we are all prisoners of time. Last week was a world wind of activity. At least for someone who doesn't normally have a calendar that was plagued by constant activity....

With the unique start to the year, I did a little pivot. Look, I can't label the 2025 as a bad year. Brian had a heart attack, but he didn't die, so the year is not bad. It just has been challenging. I started my new job this week and to say that it is eye-opening...

We are a week into 2025 and I will be honest, I am not impressed. YELP review would warrant a 2 and that's being generous. During a wild winter weather storm, Brian suffered a heart attack. Let me preface by saying, he is so blessed to still be here and came home...
