OK, so now that I am over it, and more like it, more over mySELF and my own embarrasment, I have to tell you what happened last week. It was the weirdest thing, though the doctor says it's more common than most think. I fly home...

In the last hours of planning to leave for the Grand Canyon, our plans changed. For weeks now, we've been making plans to spend the boys' & Colleen's Spring Break at the Grand Canyon. None of us have been there yet. I though it'd be a...

The last couple days have been a bit of a bummer. Woke up Friday morning with that weird feeling in my throat, and the fuzzy feeling in my head. You know how you just feel like you're off? Slowed me down way more than I...
