This new job scares me. It's a big deal. These children may or may not be placed back with their parents based on my observations. Kinda gives me a tummy ache. Perhaps that makes me right for the...

Now I have shingles. WTF? I have never even had the stupid chicken pox. So here I sit, home from work until I can get a doctor to say I am not contagious. I come into very close contact with about...

What do you say to your friend who lost her son less than a year ago and whose daughter is maybe going to follow soon. Too soon. Brain tumor. What do you say in the middle of the night to a mom who...

Today was my 1st day back to work after retreat and I tell you I could have used another week. In my 1 1/2 weeks off I squeezed 4 days in Utah in between two hospital visits, one more of a mini drive...

Jeannie MacArthur was my friend. I loved her as a friend, a mother and a sister. I spent about ten years of my life being totally infatuated with her. She was everything I wanted to be. She was...

I have been missing an old friend and for about the 20th time I looked for her on FB, then I looked for her daughter who I was also close to once. I left Leslie a message and waited. She answered...

April 21st will be five years since Jeff was given his wings. When I try to think about how i lived every day of the past five years without my firstborn son my mind will not allow me to go there....

I spent four lovely days driving through AZ & NV with my sister & niece. We met up with my brother in Vegas and I even got to see two brothers from my childhood. One I have seen from time to time...

How could this have happened? I bought a new computer. My first one ever and I am so excited about it I can't think of much else. Jeff left me his but it was a dinosaur. On my yahoo email page I have...

So I spent 2 hours without a shirt on, being groped by not one but two handsome men. Not a bad afternoon after all! Oh and the ticker will continue to tick for a long, long time! The right side of my...

Today I will spend with my dad. I love this.

I have made a decision. I will love working in the cage. It seems to suit me fine. Now that I have learned the process it is not even that bad. My whole outlook has changed thanks to two earthly...
