Are you drinking enough water?
Hello there,
Living in Arizona for the last fifteen years has given me ample reason to pay more attention to my levels of hydration, especially in the summer!
Dehydration can occur when you use or lose more body fluids than you’re taking in. Many people believe that when they are thirsty, it’s a good indica
It’s A Beautiful Day!
Hello,
Are you someone who jumps out of bed each morning full of gusto and ready to face the world? Or, do you automatically hit the snooze button multiple times and pull the covers over your head? I tend to be somewhere in the middle. I get out of bed with purpose, but I do need time to myself to replenish my spirit a
Hello,
Tomorrow, July 11th, is Larry’s birthday. He would have been 62.
This is the 9th year we haven’t been able to celebrate his birthday with him.

I wish I could tell you that I don’t miss his smile and big hugs.
I wish I could tell you that my heart still doesn’t ache.

It’s my bel

My favorite story about this guacamole is when eldes
Hi there,
When someone you love is no longer in your life what you miss about him or her gets scattered over time.
For instance, I didn’t miss the way Larry took responsibility for the maintenance of our cars until I needed to get work done on mine. I didn’t miss his photography skills until I had to ask someone else to take our holiday p
If your house is anything like mine, the closer we get to Christmas the more I hear “I want…” from my children. “I want an Xbox One, I want Legos, a new baseball bat, a hockey bag…” The list is endless!
I don’t take away the wishful thinking from my children- I have plenty of fond memories of my own as a child combing through t
Hi Sweet Friend,

It seems as though there are a million activities planned for the next three weeks, including- school projects that are due before break, winter recitals, and holiday parties.
