Not going to lie. I dreamt that I should blog about this. Although I have written about married life and my kids from birth to now ad nauseam, I have not written a ton about the fact that I am divorced. Probably I think it is mostly because everyone still… Read More »

I love to shop, but since moving to the prairie 8-1/2 years ago, it’s something that I rarely do. Prior to the move, I almost never had expendable income, but was a pro in the art of “look shopping.” That’s simply scoping things out, including trying on clothes and shoes,… Read More »
