People say that if you want to experience true, unconditional love you should get a dog. I say be careful about what kind of dog you get because they might just break your heart. I have three dogs at present and I would say only one truly provides unconditional love. One of the dogs is…
Everything changes. That is an overused platitude that is supposed to be a comfort when you are uncomfortable with a shift, or suddenly moved from one state of being to another. The new place might be just fine but you aren’t used to it and you have to adjust. ‘Everything changes,’ someone will say as…
I had never been to Walmart. I have never been to a lot of places so I didn’t, in particular feel like I was missing out on something big. I just hadn’t been to Walmart. I go the grocery store, and the stores that we used to call drug stores (I don’t know what they…
I received an email the other day, actually I receive emails everyday but this one I found particularly interesting because it said it would help me live a more secure life knowing my identity was safe.

Mere days ago my husband and I celebrated our twentieth wedding anniversary. We agreed that is didn’t feel like we had been married for a long time. A lot of stuff has happened for sure, but it just doesn’t feel long. I said, “I just feel like I know you really well.” He said, “yep,…
Recently I ordered a few things online from a brand that I like. Nothing I needed, just a few things I wanted. And I was quite pleased with my purchases when they came, until today. Today I got an email alert letting me know that all sale items were now 25% off in addition to the…
Sugar Bear – what can I say. It’s been over six months and he definitely knows us but I don’t think he has truly settled into believing, deeply believing that we are for real. Relationships are hard, especially when you don’t speak the same language and so there is no way for us to reassure…
