4 Health Habits To Start In 2018!
Health is something we take for granted until we lose it. In our youth, we may enjoy an abundance of good health, but by our 40’s an accumulation of life’s stresses begins to take their toll on our health. Fortunately, you can improve your health in your 40s and beyond by following a few simple healthy habits like improving the quality of our sleep, eating a healthy diet, getting enough exercise, developing a more positive attitude, and learning how to manage our stress. 1.

Seriously?! Where Is Mom??
Whine alert. Death is a racket. It’s expensive. It’s heart wrenching. It’s stressful and it sucks ass. My Mom has been gone 3 weeks today.

On the other hand, I am a million times unimpressed with The Trident Society. They are everything that Silverado is not. Several years ago The Husband and I were approached about cremation services. The Trident Society sent out a representative that made us feel this was the GOLD STANDARD!! The best company to use. We signed up. We…

Scruffy Cat is used almost every night. When growing pains hit Alice’s knees. When she just can’t un-wind. Or when she is sad. LORD help us when we are away and don’t take Scruffy Cat with us. Which is why I am posting again. Because only 2.5 years later did it dawn on me to purchase another Scruffy! One for NaNa’s house! Last week was a rough week!! Whatever flu…

4 Proven Ways to Take the Stress out of Moving!
In every language and in all parts of the world from all times, people say, have said, and will continue to say: Moving is stressful. There is simply no such thing as a stress-free move. Even the simplest and shortest distance move has psychological implications. It can be somewhat stressful just moving your furniture around the home you already have. Removing it from that space and putting it into another is going to leave a mark. It is not just the obvious difficulties of a move, such as the expense. And to be sure, moving is almost always more expensive than you expect it to be. There is also the…

Enough procrastinating I have GOT to get to WORK!! I’ve really got to do some packing!! I’ve only been whining about it since October. On one hand, June, which is supposed to be when we put this house in California on the market……… is fast approaching. On the other hand June is sooooo far away. (Don’t you wish you could spend 15 minutes inside my head??) Either way, I did promise The Husband I would really work on packing this month while he is in Idaho painting and installing new doors. I am thinking of starting with closets and drawers. Right? Places that others won’t notice… right?? Or do I…
