Soap box of the day

I really shouldn't watch the news. It just gives me too many soapboxes to rant from - every day there are new ones to rant about....someone just did a study that shows that making healthy foods (fresh produce etc.)more AFFORDABLE has resulted in better nutrition and less obesity. PAY ATTENTION FOLKS! Right now, in the current economy, it costs A LOT to eat healthy. Over processed convenience foods are a big part of why we have an obesity problem in this country. I wonder how much the research cost?

Teens of their own

Few things are more satisfying than seeing your own children have teenagers of their own.
- Doug Larson

Only one of my two daughters has had to deal with teens of her own, but the eldest will have teens to deal with sooner than she thinks....they grow up so fast. But not to worry - they'll turn out just fine, in spite of the bumps and potholes in the road to adulthood.

Tomorrow is not promised

Tomorrow is not promised, and now is the time to do those things that bring you joy with the people you love and enjoy.

Delusions of grandeur

Delusions of grandeur make me feel a lot better about myself.
