This evening I attended art class for the first time in almost a year and a half. I have been oil painting for over five years and taking an art class through Wake Technical Community College. But for the past year and half I haven’t done much painting because of work, life, being [...]
One of the things that I love about blogging is that I can go from writing about politics, religion and other important social issues to eyebrow waxing (that’s right – I made that leap. Don’t judge me).

In an effort to clear clutter from the house (and the added benefit of making a little extra cash), the husband and I decided a couple weeks ago to put some stuff up on Craigslist. We’ve purchased a few items from Craigslist in the past, including a very nice coffee table and end table. We [...]
Why are people crazy?

The two Americans were family members of a coach for the US Men’s indoor volleyball team. The attacker, 47, leaped to his death after killing the American [...]
Move over Rainbows, there’s a new flip-flop in town, and it ain’t your rival the Reefs. It’s Barack Obama – flip-flopping on issues left and right (or should I say left and more left?). In any case, I ran across this image on American Elephant and thought I would share. I couldn’t [...]
