Last week’s meal planning went quickly by the wayside. I made it two days into the week before going off kilter. With another cold snap coming up this week, I am glad as some of what I was going to make will be shifted to this week. Sunday – Tacos (ground chicken for the kids… Continue reading Food for the Week
I do realize that states make some laws and the federal government makes others. In some cases, the federal government turns a blind eye – rightfully so – to states where the state law may be in direct conflict with the federal law. While I agree with that in many cases, I am having a… Continue reading Another Health Care Insurance Adventure

Almost a year ago, I got an email from my soon-to-be ex. You’ll notice that there is a new phrase out… Continue reading What’s Up and How I Reacted?
With the end of September comes the last quarter of 2013. I cannot believe that we are that close to being done with this year. The entire year has just flew past. My 13 in 2013 goal is essentially done. I ran the Ragnar Relay in the Adirondacks in September. I am not filling in… Continue reading Goal Review
