• The #GrandmaProject, Reading

    The #GrandmaProject was amazing. So far, July is my favorite month of this year.  When I told people hubs and I were going to have the grandkids for two weeks, by ourselves, everyone said some version of its too long and you’ll be so tired.

  • Taking a Vacation!!!

    I honestly don’t know why I didn’t think of this sooner. I see bloggers taking a break all the time and I’m still there when they come back. But somehow I’m the one who has to show up forever and ever? I know I’m already dead, but even so, I need a rest now and…
