Lately I have been in a very serious rut! A rut is defined as “a habit or pattern of behavior that has become dull and unproductive but is hard to change.” I am late all the time, unorganized, forgetful, moody, and yes unproductive to say the least. We had some sickness go through our house but other than that nothing really out of the ordinary. What … [Read more...]

My uncle is Russ Massa and you should most definitely elect him Heard County Commission Chair.  And I’d like to tell you why! If you’ve ever read my blogs you know that I am very passionate and dedicated to the things and people I believe in.  With as few words as I can, in hopes that all will have the time to read this, I would like to explain why … [Read more...]

I do not like sports. I do not watch sports. I do not understand sports. I have been this way my whole life.   In high school I was in marching band. I hated P.E. This one time I liked football for like 5 minutes! Okay so those are the facts, oh and just a little disclaimer I am talking about adults playing sports. Professional, way over paid kind of … [Read more...]

I had such high hopes back in June that I would be able to execute my carefully planned out summer break.  Well it is now less than a week until school starts back and to put it quite simply, I failed! There is no way for me to fully describe this summer, and how crazy it has been.  I feel as though I was not able to do any of the things I had planned on … [Read more...]

I made it all through my school years without being yelled at by a bus driver. Actually I was never yelled at by any adult during my school years or even got into any kind of trouble. Seriously I was a total teacher’s pet, never sent to the principal’s office except to receive an award, perfect conferences, and straight A’s kinda girl! I avoided … [Read more...]

Since I am pretty much a stay at home mom now I have given up some things to save on money. Things that I don’t mind giving up like eyebrow waxes and pedicures. I can do both those things at home, and I actually take pride in saving our family money. I also buy make-up and hair supplies from the store now instead of a department store or salon. I find … [Read more...]

I recently had one of my most humiliating experiences as a mom! Wait, not just as a mom, but in my whole life! So my baby is going to be two the end of this month, but he has only been walking for about six months. Back in September, I took him to get his first pair of walkers from Nordstrom (not sure if this is a Northwest specific store or not so I guess … [Read more...]
