Smart Phones, Wonder Bread, Crack Cocaine and Commie Plots
Smartphones are as ubiquitous these days as Wonder Bread was when I was growing up. Turns out they might be just as over rated when it comes to how helpful, or healthful, they actually are for keeping us all “connected”, especially for kids. But back to Wonder Bread for a moment for some context. Open …
And the Award for Your Favorite Facebook Friend Goes to: Anyone But Me
These times are so challenging, who among us can really be our best selves? It seems impossible not to lose it now and then, use harsh language, spit venom.

In the Event of Nuclear War, I’ll Be at the Beach
I don’t know why it’s so hard to write witty little blog posts anymore. I mean geez, it’s not like any of those North Korean missiles Kim Jong Un is hurling at the Pacific can actually reach the west coast…yet. Of course I haven’t lost my sense of humor completely. My husband and I have …
Thanks to Life in The Boomer Lane for this LOL Post
Those readers who are convinced that North Korean missiles are now, even as we speak, headed this way, have no need to continue reading this blog post.
