This is category is Life and Life is messy. Here you will find words, pictures, thoughts, and observations on life. Anything that doesn’t neatly fit under my other categories ends up here.

All you can do is hold on and enjoy the ride. Maybe you will learn something interesting along the way.

I personally love getting gift cards because it gives me the freedom to choose my own gift. It saves on returns and I can hold on to it and use it when I am broke and need something. Gift cards cost nothing to ship and many can be sent online in minutes so no worries about if the package will arrive on time.
Even if you’re a workaholic, you need some way to release the pressure from time to time. And sure, sitting around all night long, watching shows on Netflix and playing games on your couch might be fun for a while. But you should take the time to explore what else the world has to offer.
If you have retired, you may be thinking about selling your home and moving to a smaller one. This may be because all your children are fully grown or they live overseas. Downsizing your home is a good decision for many retirees as they do not need the responsibility of having to take care of a
Empty nest syndrome is a real thing. For many parents, their children’s departure from the home can be a difficult time. You may feel like you have lost your life purpose or are all alone now. This can lead to depression and feelings of isolation. However, there are ways that you can stay happy during
Those of you who have been following me for a while, know that I have Panic Disorder and CPTSD which has lead to long bouts of agoraphobia. Right now I am in the midst of one of those bouts where I have not left my house in several months. As a matter of fact, I
