It is time to put an end to this as best as I can. Unfortunately, this will never have a true ending to it, but I can give you what I can. I wanted a perfect ending. Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories do not have…
One Eyed Meanie So far our first Vanlife problem has only been a headlight. We rolled into gas station on our way back from Spokane and found that our headlight was out. A headlight. Sweet, just a headlight. It’s not a real story of heroics or clever spontaneity to get us out of a tight…
Now that we are almost two months through surgery recovery and lifestyle changes I can report that even though it has gotten easier it has not gotten any less annoying. I am two months sober from alcohol, tylenol, and several other medications that could have aided in my allergy fest that I had experienced earlier…

Hello!! It has been a bit of time, but I have been quite busy, plus a little avoidance of actually sitting down at my computer. My internet has been all over the place for some odd reason. I have yet to determine fully if it is the browser I am using or if something else…
I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday weekend! I know that we enjoyed ours! Thanksgiving means counting down to all our December events! My birthday is on the 6th, the twins on the 12th, and then we prepare for Christmas! We also have a Girl Scout ceremony and a parade to be apart…
