I’m hardly EVER sick so it wasn’t that bad really. I usually recover from illness quickly, I’m kinda healthy. In some ways. However, I had to […]

Well, I did it. About a month full of blog posts. I gave up on the thankful stuff about halfway through. While I am thankful for a HELL of a lot, it really is hard to remember to SAY it out lour (or in writing) what I am thankful for on a daily basis. On […]

    For the last two months we have been working on the house. First, we got Solar Panels from Solar City. Those took about 5 months from the initial consultation, to installment, to actually turning them on! Our electric bill which can vary from $150 a month to $300 a month was…. negative $11 […]

The excitement of every small little things makes my heart happy. We were driving around Big Bear yesterday and the winter weather and decorative lights up […]
