Damn it, y'all {and no, I am not southern, but the twang has a certain ring to a writer} this political biz-niss is making it real hard for a midwest blogger to keep quiet. Donald Trump. Woah, who just got angry from reading that first line? But, if we are going to be fair, which…

Well, here I am about to comment on another 'news trending' topic. I can't help it; my heart is heavy. I have found myself reflecting over the last 48 hours since I heard the news in Charlottesville. I must say I am speechless. I don't quite know how to put into words the sadness…

I don't know about you, but there are some days where I just don't think I can make it through the day. Ever since Daylight Savings came to an end, I have been struggling. Remind me why Daylight Savings is still a thing. You would think that one hour would not impact your child or children's sleeping…

I have always lived near civilization; retail stores minutes away. I had pictured myself neighborhood living in a populated town where my kids could ride their bikes from dawn until dusk. Which is strange because I am really not a 'people person'. I like to think that I am friendly and welcoming but I cannot deny that…
