Tuesday morning, around 10 a.m, I started having really bad abdominal pains. It felt more like a stomach ache rather than cramps. There was no explanation; I didn’t do anything unusual. At about this time I started feeling guilty about everything… what if it was the deli meat I snuck at my baby shower, what [...]

After the absolutely perfect baby shower my momma Cheryl hosted I think we’re all set for Lizzy to arrive. We received all the necessities from our friends and family and tons of the cute stuff too. For everyone that was able to make it, thank you for sharing a very special day with us. And [...]

On a recent trip to Utah my Blackberry was fried by an unruly outlet. I’ve been a loyal “Crackberry”  user/abuser since I was a teen. I never thought another smartphone would outdo it’s capabilities, until the iPhone came on scene. However, my wireless provider is Verizon and I’m happy with their service and coverage, but [...]

I was really looking forward to my doctor’s appointment today. I quit drinking soda approximately three weeks ago and I was sure he’d be singing my praises.

I used to complain a lot to my hubby about everything, but there’s really no point because it just gets worse. For instance, I remember complaining [...]

I’d like everyone to meet the baby lizard that’s been living in my garden. I finally got a picture- thanks to my dog Chloe who scared him still this morning. I hope he sticks around because he sure is a cutie!

Hi Mom and Grandma- This was about a week ago, and the bottom picture is frames I made for her nursery of all her animal friends. Love you.

It was almost a month ago that I began my garden endeavor and I had no idea how it would go. After all, things were just beginning to heat up in Vegas and I was, actually still am, clueless about gardening. I’m happy to report that every plant in my garden has survived. This alone [...]

Day One: Last night, my sister-in-law and I decided that we were going to kick our caffeine addictions to the curb. We’re lovers of all things carbonated. She prefers Mt. Dew or Dr. Pepper, with its 23-bubbly-flavors, and I can’t get enough of Diet Coke with an icy-cold splash of Barq’s Root Beer on the [...]
