The Ups, The Downs, and Everything in Between
T’was the morning after Christmas…. and what should you do? The answer is easy! Jump in your car and head to the nearest Walgreens, CVS, Target etc and look for the health and beauty gift section. Just like wrapping paper, decorations, and holiday candy, anything packaged as a holiday gift set will be half off or more, the day after Christmas.

A few blogs ago I promised to tell you more about my recent successes in asking for a manager. In part two of this three part series, I was going to tell you about my conversation with Cody, a manager of a franchise chicken restaurant I ordered from while I was out of town. Guess what guys? Cody made a liar out of me. He led me to believe I was successful in asking for a manager and getting a refund for the terrible experience …
Recent events, personally, professionally and socially and how we have responded as a collective society has made me think, “what the F$^*! Is wrong with us?” Everyone needs to to their homework and mind their own business. Respect for one another is what we are missing.

Today is Earth Day! It is important that we all take responsibility and do our part today and everyday. It’s also a good reason to get the kids to clean-up the yard! I have been active in organizing recycling efforts and educating our school community for the past seven years. It’s gratifying to organize efforts that help our environment, and I’m always up to working with other parents and making new friends. It’s amazing what we can accomplish coming together and sharing our time, treasures …
It’s Autism Awareness / Acceptance month, I care and you should too. I don’t have a child with Autism or any other disability, physical, intellectual or developmental. I don’t know all the facts or the details of this condition (is it even called a condition), I truly don’t know the daily struggles of Autism, I don’t know what it’s like to be told that my child is on the spectrum and I don’t always know the right things to say or the best way …
