Friday Photo Flashback

Today's Friday Photo Flashback takes us all the way back to....... yesterday! Ok, maybe the photo doesn't really qualify as Flashback, but the story is too funny not to share. I've said this on numerous occasions - my brother Christopher and I could not be more different. However, there are some things where we share … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

30 Years Ago – The Final Week of Honey Radio Began

While surfing Facebook today, someone posted that it was Lorna Luft's Birthday. Why did that strike a chord with me?

We were talking about her birthday on the air and it jogged the memory. … Continue reading 30 Years Ago – The Final Week of Honey Radio Began →

Life’s Little Moments

Chipmunks and Excavators Drive Me Crazy!

Parenting can be rough some days! This week, Sam had a doctor appointment, so I had to take Ella to school. Afterward, I had to drop Andrew off at Nana's house so I could go to work.

Book Recommendation – Viviana Valentine Gets Her Man

One of the hardest things about using my library's Libby App is the occasional wait. This was the case recently as I had finished one book and was waiting for another. When this happens, I usually go to the other Library App (Hoopla). It is there that I will grab something short to read until … Continue reading Book Recommendation – Viviana Valentine Gets Her Man →

Friday Photo Flashback

Today's flashback takes me back to around 2008. I'm not 100%, but based on the ages that the boys look, it is about right. My oldest son was diagnosed as being on the Autism spectrum.
