In today’s post I will take you through, step by step, exactly how to confirm just how out of shape you are. It really is quite simple, anyone can do it (especially if you have two boys named Zackery and Brayden and haven’t routinely exercised in many,...

Giraffes, Panda Bears, these are animals that you usually see in a zoo, right? (Unless you’re lucky enough to travel and be able to see them out in the wild.) In our family, and specifically in Brayden’s little world, these are the names of the classrooms...

It’s been a helluva past few weeks! (To put it mildly…) Aside from getting the first draft of my Postpartum Depression book to my editor, and going through another round of antibiotics for Brayden for an ear infection, and celebrating Mother’s Day...

Well, I’ve had good intentions (aren’t they always?) I’ve had my little list of “posts to write” sitting next to my computer. I haven’t had much time to write lately (pretty much NO time since last Saturday). It was Spring Break...

The screen is blank. My mind is full – but not of things I care to write about. I wouldn’t say I have writer’s block, it’s more that I have stress overload. The mental kind. My brain really is FULL! I have a notepad next to my computer with 6...

This past weekend was the 11th annual Nevada Women’s Expo. I had never been before, but had always wanted to go. Turns out, I finally got my chance – but not exactly in the way I had envisioned or planned. I have a friend with whom I keep in touch through...
