Cancer is taking so many people away from us. It’s taking our family members, our friends, our animals, our co-workers, our co-worshipers and school children. It is a horrible disease that claims the lives of so many. It seems like every week there is someone else that I learn has cancer. And it seems like […]
Good Friends
Life just seems to be better when you have good friends to share it with. They make us laugh more, laugh louder and laugh longer. I have one friend whose laugh is so funny, I laugh at her laugh more than what she says or does. Everyone does. We can be in a large, crowded […]

Shake it off if you need to. Tonight, let your stress go. Take a step back and remember everything you’ve accomplished. Remember […]
