Today I’m thankful for the reminder of my late grandmother and how she used to give me music boxes as a young child. It was one of her favorite things she tried to pass on to her grandchildren (she had shelves full of them!). I’ll never forget that for many years, my dad would wind […]
Today I’m thankful for the amusement of my Facebook feed from seeing both sides of the spectrum. I’m also thankful for the peace and happiness I choose to create for myself when everyone else isn’t so zen. It’s been one of the best life lessons I’ve ever learned.
Today I’m thankful that we’re getting this election season over with…’Nuff said. ^Me, last election season. Caption read “I voted…Is it over yet?” It was brutal then and even worse now. Ha!
I think this time of year, when the wood needs chopping, homage needs to be paid to the Lumbersexual. Don’t ask me what it is – the beard, the hair, the flannel – but this is one trend in men’s fashion that I hope doesn’t go away any time soon! Honey, I hope you’re taking […]
