Ever since I can remember, I have had a rainy birthday. It’s in the midst of spring and supposedly end-of-May flowers will bloom as a result. That’s all well and good but I like the sun and flowers make me sneeze. Admittedly, there have been days where it […]
Growing up I was always reminded that I am a Taurean. I am hot-headed, stubborn, determined, and smart. When my mom was pregnant with me she went to a fortune teller who told her I’d be a girl that would be a smart cookie with throat problems. All […]
My weekend came and went and I don’t know how I feel. I think I have a major decision or two to consider this upcoming week. I think I need a superpower smoothie to get me through this week. It’s the first week of the month and it […]
I have a lot of wanderlust. I’ve been talking about it non-stop for weeks. I was at a local coalition meeting recently where I proudly noted I try to go to at least two countries a year. I wish I could do more but my son’s school schedule alongside […]

I have this really obnoxious friend that has been to probably 100 or more countries at this point in life. That isn’t the obnoxious part. But I won’t go into why he is so obnoxious and why it is that he is my friend. I tend to […]
