If there is one thing this election has brought in out in folks, it’s the know-it-all in each of us. We find our truth, our righteousness, and we try to convince others of it. Well, sometimes it’s even more of a trap as a parent. Do you need to know the answer to your child’s […]

Some days I have no patience. And I know it’s a state of mind. The pressure of “what if…” as I watch the clock tick by. So here’s my ask of myself: What the hell’s the hurry? Even if time kills all deals, I can’t let that stress me out. I need to give myself credit for […]

You can decide to be happy. I am not talking about folks who have extreme mental illness, but I am talking about the average debbie downer or person who is in a lull. Guess what? It take WAY MORE ENERGY to be down. And especially because it’s at the top of my list as one […]
