My I don’t list…
It’s the end of the year, actually – it’s the end of a decade…time really DOES go by fast, just like our parents and grandparents said it would. Time to make new year’s resolutions or new goals – whatever you’d like to call them. This isn’t your first rodeo; you’re familiar with this game we
Life Hacks
It takes a lot of years to ‘get it together’ doesn’t it? I’m not sure that everyone even gets there… And I think it looks different in each decade of your life perhaps. I’ll take a stab at what I think it may look like in each period, my life hacks, and what it DID

He’s married to his beautiful bride in an all-out country wedding complete with cowboy boots, a barn dance and red Solo cups. The festivities were held at my aunt and uncle’s farm, making the ideal setting to kick
