Fashion forward and letting go.
Illa’ s fashion sense is fearless. She is bold, loves lipstick and color. I almost heard my mothers voice in her when Illa asked me this week ” Why don’t your wear lipstick? You need some color.” My mother used to always bug me about that. This week Illa was on a tear with what …
Could this Week BE any crazier?
** PLEASE read that in Chandler Bing’s Voice ** The fact that I survived this week is a miracle. A FREAKING miracle. I did a thing y’all. A big thing! I decided a few weeks ago I wanted to go back to school. Well, that’s not accurate. I’ve toyed with the idea for awhile but …

Is it supposed to be this hard?
We have been dealing with something over here that hasn’t been easy. It’s not something that I talk about often and I don’t like to bring up. But in the interest of being transparent I will divulge. Wes and Illa have very strong personalities. ( No clue where they get those from..) They get a …
Going it alone this week
Greg went hunting for the last week and it was INTERESTING. I was happy that Greg got a break and was able to get out into the mountains and recharge. I know it was good for him, he totally needed it. Meanwhile at home…. things were getting crazy. I mean I run a fairly tight …
My trip to Ground Zero
Can you ever really forget where you were when something has horrific as 9/11 happened? Your entire world is changed, you see things both bad and good that stay in your mind forever. I was in 10th grade, I had just walked into my orchestra class and the TV was on. I thought it was …
