Six words.
“You have early onset Alzheimer’s Disease.”
It only took six words to immediately and irrevocably change my family’s life.
After almost a year of searching for answers to why my 48-year-old husband was forgetting basic things like what day it...
Recently I came to the realization that now that I am a mom, I need to work on how to talk to non-moms!
Here's the scene:

These are all of the things I didn't know that I would need in plentiful supply in 2020, yet here we are. When the shutdown of the...
2020 was difficult for so many reasons. I found myself as a new mom and navigating a pandemic at the same time. Loneliness was at an all-time high, and my husband and I were in survival mode still as...
When I moved to the U.S. from my home country of England, I left behind my entire family. For the first time in my 24 years, I was living away from my parents and out on my own with...

This is the second wedding anniversary I have gone through during the divorce process. It’s not an easy day. I try to keep myself busy but it’s rough. I have to drop my kids off to their dad so...
CONFESSION. We just put our 'first date' of 2019 on the calendar. Yup. My husband and I, that is.
I don't know about you, but (wo)man, it is hard to date this day and age. Date my husband, that is....
Before you open that web browser to start shopping for the man in your life, remember that he doesn't want another bow tie. I know, I know, it's such a cute pattern for a man's bow tie and it...

“Make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver and the other’s gold.”
Yes, I was a Girl Scout for more years than I would like to recall. Nonetheless, I’ve always been appreciative of friends, especially the ones who...
