Lately things have been going great for my family. My husband got a big promotion and we might finally be able to buy our first home. There is no family drama…everything is good. But just like everything else, there’s ALWAYS bad with the good. In my situation, the bad is both of my doctors. Anyone who has read my blogs knows that I have both mental and physical problems. First off, I have had these huge damn migraines for two months … Read more →

My family and I moved to a bigger house about a month ago, and right away my children made friends with the kids in the neighborhood. My daughter made friends with a little girl across the street and, like a normal parent, her dad came over and introduced himself to my husband and me as we were sitting on the porch.
