As we close out this year of 2021, I reflect on the high’s and the low’s. My highlights of 2021 include: January started out with me celebrating my 47th birthday with family and friends watching my favorite superhero – Wonder Woman!

I’m Sorry I Didn’t Say Goodbye
On August 10, 2021, my parents dog, Blue, passed away. He was with them for about 10 years; he was old and he was getting slower each day. My dad was going to cut grass and noticed that he was moving even slower and lied down, looking very weak and tired. Dad had a thoughtContinue reading “I’m Sorry I Didn’t Say Goodbye”
Christian Daniel
Today we celebrate my son, Christian’s 22nd Birthday! Christian is my second-born child, my firstborn son. All 4 of my kids were “surprises” and not at all planned like many other couples do.

Day 14 of Quarantine – July 24, 2021
Some of you have asked what brand of home testing kit we used. This was the only one we found when we were looking, and it was very accurate. We’ve since found out there are others out there, but I highly recommend this one.

Day 13 of Quarantine – July 13, 2021 (part 1)
Let’s just address the elephant in the room now. I didn’t want to discuss it last week because I didn’t want the debate. I still don’t. But a few of you so called “friends” just can’t seem to shut up about it. The VACCINE! I am sick and tired of reading passive aggressive posts thatContinue reading “Day 13 of Quarantine – July 13, 2021 (part 1)”

Today’s Update:We are doing so much better! The only lingering symptom is that nagging cough. But even that’s something that I’ve experienced worse in my life before. I know it’ll be gone soon!
