Yesterday was my baby's twenty-second birthday. I am way too young to have children in their twenties, but yet here we are. Every time Bryce's birthday occurs, I laugh at the sequence of events that led to his arrival. I had gone to my last doctor's appointment as I...

Don't you adore when your time is wasted? Whether it's sitting at the doctor's office or waiting for someone who is late, the feeling is frustrating. Well, welcome to my world last week. I did my Census like the good little rule follower that I am. Imagine my surprise...

It's been over a week since I have written anything. It's literally a case of "I've got nothing". I think it should be a real medical condition. Anyway, my brain has been blank and I am in a state of being uninspired. Some call it writer's block. I prefer to think of...

For 18 months, Bailey has been in limbo without his job and this week offers a glimmer of hope as he returns to work. Well, as long as people mask up, but that is another blog for another day. The level of excitement is pulsating. It vibrates off of him and his smile...
