Saturday was an interesting day. We spent the bulk of the afternoon at our community pool which neither of us knew about prior to this weekend. What a great place for a family. Lushie and [...]

I want to start by saying yes, I know it’s a business. The owner is free to run it as she sees fit because hey, it’s her money. As a consumer I’m allowed to disagree with things. I don’t have to go back if I don’t like something. That’s not the point of what I’m [...]

What did you think I meant?
97 degrees Fahrenheit, standing in front of a hot grill serving up 48 hamburgers and 40 hot dogs is how I roll on a Sunday. Wait, I need to stop “how I roll”. It’s how I grill biatches! Thank god for sunblock and 6 bottles of water.

I’ve told most of you (who knew what was going on that is) thanks already but just in case I missed someone I really appreciate all of the kind emails, txt, tweets and calls to see how I was doing. I didn’t want to make a big deal about it because honestly I didn’t know [...]
