What major historical events do you remember? January 1986. I was a senior in high school and I homeschooled. I was at my desk working on lessons and had my radio on to listen to the launch of the Challenger. My mom had been a teacher and was thrilled that Christa McAuliffe was on theContinue reading “R I.P.

Up up and awayyyyyy
What’s the biggest risk you’d like to take — but haven’t been able to? My husband wants us to take a hot air balloon ride but I am terrified of heights. I imagine the view and experience would be exhilarating but I have to overcome that one little fear 🤣

My dad left her when I was just 7 years old never to be seen again. She had three young daughters, no job, no friends. The only friends she hadContinue reading “Hands Down. My Mom”
A simple list
What makes a good neighbor? For the first time in about 12 years, we live in a neighborhood with great neighbors. What I have observed: the younger kids are respectful of the property around them. Not tearing across other yards with their bikes. They have helped some of the older ones with yard work. DrivingContinue reading “A simple list”
