Not so sweet strangers

Originally posted 2015-06-29 19:58:49. Most of people have a memory of the ice cream truck coming by and the excited feeling you get knowing you were about to get something off the ice cream truck, YAY! Well that’s for most people. I admit I used to feel the same way. UNTIL…. Living in Las Vegas, NV we lived right behind a business that supplied ice cream trucks their inventory. Naturally they would frequent our apartment…

Just prayers

Originally posted 2022-08-01 12:48:44. Hey ya’ll I could use some prayers. A friend of mine, that I have known her and her family for 20 plus years. Her momma has had 2 strokes in less than two weeks and declining rapidly. She’s an only child and her sole decision maker in her health and wellness.

Seeing signs

Originally posted 2015-06-19 13:23:07. I have been reading posts from other domestic violence survivors in support groups. I see myself in so many of the stories I read. The intimidation, manipulation, the “love” the abusers claim they have for their victims. It kills me because as I remember all that I was told and all he claimed I was just so blind and made to believe what he was saying to me was out of…

Falling in Love

Originally posted 2020-12-05 08:27:35. Do you agree? I know looks are the first thing you see but you get to know that person and it becomes more than just looks. It’s funny because my husband and I had no intention to get into any relationship whatsoever. It was more like a booty call. Then like Emeril say, BAM! 14 plus years later… How long for you?

Originally posted 2015-06-18 19:29:47. It’s official. We now have a 68whiskey medic in the house. She’s making moves and her stubborn determination and will as well as the passion to fulfill her dream is going to get her there. We still owe Meredith College 16k but we will worry about that later. It’ll get paid somehow. Only sucks because she could have used her transcripts to go in at a higher rank. We don’t know…

New Toys

Originally posted 2019-08-23 09:45:31. I purchased a new toy for the house. The main reason was to have something to play calming music at night for Saoirse. She has so much energy that sometimes nighttime isn’t as calm as it should be. I have been playing this calming music for dogs I found on Amazon music. We have been leaving the tv on at night since we played it through our firestick. We would leave…

Baby then BOOM!

Originally posted 2022-07-17 13:26:27. We welcomed a new grandbaby to our family on Saturday July 9th at 3:51pm. We had our first grandbaby with us because the hospital wouldn’t allow them to bring her in the hospital at all. So we were able to get 2 hotel rooms not far from the hospital and across the hall from each other and had Cerenity with us the entire weekend. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! They had…

Originally posted 2019-08-21 11:00:00. This course discusses a topic that seems to be coming up a lot these days—taking care of your loved ones as they get older. We know just taking care of your own household can be tough enough. If one day you find you’re also responsible for your aging parents, grandparents, or other loved ones, it gets even tougher. One of the most overwhelming aspects of caring for a loved one is…
