If you follow me on Twitter, you’ll know I tweet. A lot. It’s what I do. I have made a science — at least in my own mind — of keeping my tweets pithy, on point, concise, and informative. All within the 140 characters or less. I want you to not only read the...

I hated the feeling of being caught off guard. Still hate it. Twice when I had heavy bleeding I was at school…high school. You don’t want to stand out in high school…ever! But, there I was…stuck at school and totally caught off guard. I have never felt so helpless. As an adult I can...

I drove my husband’s Mercury Mountaineer today. I don’t drive this car often. The bodywork is solid. The electric seats work a treat. The CD player does not work. The radio and speakers are super crackly, but not all the time. The AC is a distant memory. At 13 years old, this car is...

Joe’s Crab Shack The Corner Bakery Au Bon Pain Chevy’s Burger King Chili’s and even Carrabba’s Italian Grill I have eaten in these restaurants more than once.
