I am having serious travel withdrawals, like many others, I’m sure. Between the pandemic and some personal health things, I haven’t had as much opportunity to go explore as I would typically enjoy. So, for now, we’ll relive some old trips. My brother is only fifteen months younger than me. We love each other, but […]
Family & Friends
Live and in Living Color
One of the best parts of living in Las Vegas is the entertainment options. We have our fair share of smaller productions, along with elaborate, multi-million dollar stages. The amount of entertainment available here on any given night is mind-boggling, from the resident shows to the special events and concerts. At least, it was. Several […]
I *Thought* I Was the Teacher
I have come to realize that our children tend to teach us far more than we will ever teach them. At least, that’s been the case with me and my kids. They have taught me what love actually means to me. They have made me question my values, my priorities, my thought processes, my actions, […]
Happy Halloween!
Every year I hear people talk about what a crazy year it has been; though, I think 2020 beats most years for that title, at least in my lifetime. The year started with plenty of memes and excitement about how many holidays fell on weekends, such as Halloween. This year Halloween brings a full moon, […]

I used to see movies or hear about girl’s trips, but had never really experienced one until I started going with this […]
Painting
Have you ever done one of those sip and paint classes? I had wanted to try one for a few years. Several friends and I always planned on doing it “one day,” which let’s face it, never comes. However, about a year and a half ago, one of my friends and I went. We actually […]
Looking in a Mirror
(when your child is just like you) For several generations, many mothers have put the curse on their children, “I hope you have a child just like you.” My mother never did that to me, or my brother. She said it was because my grandmother always told my father that and she had to deal […]
Sunny San Diego
I grew up a couple of hours away from San Diego, but never really spent much time there. The weather is nearly perfect year-round and it’s next to the ocean, which is one of my favorite places to be. There are tons of things to do, great food, and fairly diverse. It’s also a bit […]
