Going off my last post, WHO ARE YOU? I have been taking the time to write out a well thought out snippet of who I believe I am as an individual outside of my mother and wifely "duties". But, for time sake, I am going to keep this on the lighter side for now and... Continue Reading →
This post may seem all over the place, but my thoughts tend to be. So, I apologize in advance if it gets confusing 😬. In my family, I know who I am. I am a mother and a wife. But, who am I outside of that? What is my personal identity? I have been working... Continue Reading →
Hey howdy ho!! Another busy weekend in the books! Friday was pretty much typical. Pay some bills, get some groceries, and hang out at home. Saturday, Chris had to work to make up for the holiday.

It is GIVING TUESDAY! Giving Tuesday is a day to pay it forward! This year we are participating in an event my brother and sister in law started for one of our local community's homeless shelter: The MICAH House.
