When I think of high school, it is hard to believe I graduated 40 years ago! It doesn't seem like it was that long ago, but time tells on us! But then, I started thinking about grade school. Life was simpler then. I loved grade school and hated high school. But, school was school, you … Continue reading The Jacks Tournament

Do you ever feel like people automatically assume you did something when someone else (cough cough Debbi) leaves the room in the middle of a prayer at Thanksgiving dinner, cackling like a hen? No…? Well, I have! People in the room that know me will look at me to see what I am doing! I … Continue reading I Always Get the Blame

Oh my goodness! Have you ever had a day that you got in your car, pulled out of the driveway, and immediately regretted the decision?

A lot of the time in the summer, it would be under … Continue reading Three Strikes and I am Out!

I saw a meme the other day that I found hilarious. It said, "Some days I totally knock it out of the park; other days I ask where my phone is while I am talking on it." I have those days. I have learned to laugh at them. You know, those days that I would … Continue reading Things That Make You Go Huh??????
