For those of you who aren't me…and I've noticed a surprisingly large number of people who aren't.
My Life in color My princess is finally a senior in high school. Please don’t pity me. I feel bad enough for myself as it is. I thought the whole daughter thing was bad, but when the senior thing crashed into it, the chaos I call my life took on a whole new meaning. All …
A strong observation I don’t know what you think but I really feel we’ve gotten a bit wimpy. Not guys wearing pink frilly aprons making quiche wimpy, just a bit soft in our thinking. Now guys, I know some great male chefs, and I like quiche, but if you’re making salmon bruton’, at least wear …
It starts with children There is a children’s song which poses the question; Do your ears hang low? What are we doing to our children?

Not the best of times It was the worst of times and trust me I didn’t need two cities to know it was, because I was in the drive-thru line, at a local hamburger place. If I had another city, some best of times might’ve shown up, but I couldn’t have gotten there anyway. I …
