Love=Happily ever after…or happy for now? (Part Two)

A year older? Perhaps wiser?
Ever notice that with each birthday it becomes a moment of reflection…your last year…what are you going to do this year? For me it is always a moment to set higher expectations for myself, to reflect on what I didn’t do the previous year…I’m incredibly hard on myself… As quick as I am to be […]

Crazy times….for Black Friday sales or something?
It has never made sense to me why people trample each other for socks sales? I am all for good deals…at the expense of someone else’s life or injury…not worth. I can honestly say I haven’t been to Black Friday sales since I was a twenty something…I have since shopped on line for years. I […]

It’s crazy to go to work sometimes and know exactly how tired you are…Whining helps at times…How little sleep time got the night before, due to worry. Stress.
