Home
Three years ago we left my home of 59 years, in Utah, all our friends, family and neighbors to work in Phoenix, Az. The place of apartments, cactus , flowers and birds of so many varieties. My son and his family, my oldest single son and my husband and I all got jobs. My neighbors were constantly changing. None of them shared my faith and definitely they had never heard or known of me. I was also an hour from the kids and grandkids. But we gathered at places around Phoenix. I was always in the car on the highway traveling.

Mother's Day Confessions
I love my mom. My mom has been a pretty decent parent, regarding she kept me fed, under a roof, and made me feel loved. My parents were smart; kept me and my sister active, and we ate whole grains, white meat, and veggies. Eating out happened once a year.

alone at the pool
May 1st, 2022 April fooled me. What a tormentous month. I was alone at that flamboyant pool under the scalding sun; once again, after many years. My boyfriend was across the globe and my few friends were hungover from the night before. I usually don’t mind being alone, but the nostalgia was drowning me. Perhaps if someone else had been there, I wouldn’t have been afraid of diving in, of refreshing. Perhaps I’d still feel lonely.

When one can smell the bull...
Have you ever read the sign: Can you spare a buck? God bless you. As I make my way across America to do what is right by generations previous to me, I wonder as I reach out to help my aging parents, who will help me? I am currently a graduate student, a mother, a wife, a daughter, an aunt, a grandmother, and a sister-in-law. After 37 years of practice in child-rearing with 24 1/2 years between oldest and youngest, what do I have to show for it except wrinkles, gray hair, and changing seasons?

The Reasons Why Family Is Important In Life
The most significant and priceless gift that God has given us is our family. It is the first lesson in interpersonal relationships. The word "family" is extremely significant. It entails feeling safe, having someone you can rely on, and sharing your troubles with them. However, it also entails mutual respect and accountability.

Hanging out with friends could actually make you happier than roosting with your family : Here’s why!
It’s shocking but true! For quite a few of us, happiness does not mean spending time with family and finding relevance in unpleasant tasks like chores or caretaking duties. People don't shy in admitting that they usually feel higher sense of well being once they find themselves surrounded by friends and laze around; rather they do when in comforting nearness of their companion or kids.
