I hate that we are going to go down in history as "The TP Hoarders of 2020" - well, SOME of you will (myself NOT included). I bought toilet paper before buying TP was cool, you know...on a regular Wednesday at Costco before the shit show broke out! But I digress, we are literally making history...please don't F*ck it up. Try to keep your shit together!! The last time a pandemic happened in this country was 1918. I don't know about you, but I was not alive at that time, and I personally don't know anyone that was. But I don't recall reading about anyone losing their minds, stealing, looting, killing, mass hysteria...you know, the insane crap we do now. Keep it together people! We are being asked to stay inside, practice social distancing, only go out if necessary, and for the love of God stop hoarding necessary items. Just be ki...

Wow. Just wow. Steve and I went to our local little Walmart last night and I could not believe what I saw, but I know that you have all been there too.

You see, we have two teenagers, and trying to figure what to feed them, what they WILL eat, when they will be home to eat, and if and when they are b...

I am at a loss, because of a loss. A friend of mine recently passed away suddenly. And when I say suddenly, I mean he was plucked out of his life in an instant. And I am still shocked. My heart hurts for his family, especially his daughter, but I also hurt for his wife. And I am not sure why, but I think this one changed me, just a little bit. My friend, was not much older than I am, and when he went to work, he had no idea that he was not going to come home that night. So, as I was sitting at home last night, I looked around our house, looked lovingly at Steve and said, "I am going to feel really bad for you if I die." Naturally he looked at me like...what the hell did you just say?! I know, it's a strange statement, but let's put some things into perspective. Seriously people, take a look around your house.
