Why I Deserve It!
I was born into slavery. All my life I had been a tool, a means to an end for other people’s needs and desires. I was kept in the dark, living on a diet of stale Ritz crackers, peanut butter and diet root beer.
But the day came when I finally saw the light. I remember [...]
The $6700 Tiffany Ring
My son called yesterday and told me that his fiancee–they are getting married over the holidays–has been eyeballing a certain ring from Tiffany’s for months, but when he told me how much it cost, did I do what any practical mother would do and try to talk him into getting her something that was much [...]
Radio Guide
If you are confused about choosing a new digital radio, you would do well to check out Radio Guide. I like it that they show the features of digital radios, and suggest the best ones for your digital radio enjoyment. I have never owned a digital radio, but if I were going to buy one, [...]

Seems I’ve been tagged. Kristi did it! Oh, but I don’t mind, I’ve always loved playing tag. I’m just trying to figure out which five things you don’t know about me that are clean enough to publish! lol

Credit Cards
Honestly, I am proud to say that I own no credit cards. I have heard so many horror stories of people who are up to their eyeballs in credit card debt. But if YOU have credit cards, hopefully you also have impulse control. I think that is the problem, it is just too easy to [...]

That’s why I so glad to learn about AcidCalm. No one knows the discomfort of heartburn and acid reflux until they’ve experienced it, and to discover an all natural remedy [...]
I Change My Mind Like I Change My Underwear
This is one day I hope i haven’t had many readers. But if you read the post I replaced with this one, just know that I am going through a rough time right now and forget what I said. I have to do what I have to do to make sure there is a roof [...]
Contact Lenses
I used to wear contacts and I loved them, but when I went to get my second pair, I don’t know whether it was the prescription or my eyes, but they were really uncomfortable so I started wearing my glasses again. That was years ago, but I see now that with Proclear Compatibles that maybe [...]
Finally Back to Reading
When I started writing full-time three years ago, after a lifetime of being a bookworm, consuming at least a book a week, I suddenly lost my desire to read. I was dumbfounded, heartbroken almost, for reading was my main form of relaxation. But I was so on fire with my novel that I had no [...]
