4 CommentsAll exes should be like Us.
Divorce and being exes isn’t always ugly. It doesn’t always have to be. It always seems to amaze people when they discover that my ex husband actually is currently living in my house with us and has his own room. They look at us like we’re weird, like we’re aliens or that there’s some kind...

1 CommentLet them have cake
Today while at work I witnessed a conversation between three women that really left me stunned. It was probably more like overheard, but since the main woman carrying the conversation was my customer whom I was waiting on, I think it the term ‘witness’ was more accurate because the whole thing felt like I was...

2 CommentsMagical Moment on a Monday
It’s always a surprise to me how the small things can sometimes sneak up on us and become big things, become magical. What might seem insignificant to some, to one in the right frame of mind or right moment can be a hugely significant thing. Yesterday I had such a magical event happen to me....

Comments OffRediscovery
This week we have been hunting out old things. It’s funny how when things have been packed away in boxes for years they become new again in a way to you when they come out of storage… rediscovered.

Comments OffDear Insurance Company:
I hope that you can sleep tonight. You denied my friend the right to pursue happiness and a longer life. You denied her the right to pursue a course of treatment that may be the ONE that could finally save her life. YOU made a judgement call and said ‘enough’. Who are you to play...
