The Circle of Life
We’d been driving for a while. Neither of us said a word. My husband’s eyes were fixed on the road ahead, while I glanced out the passenger window. Suddenly he broke the silence. “Can you believe we’re doing this? he asked. “Not really,” I answered. “But I guess we both knew it was coming.” We just never expected it so soon. It seemed like yesterday... (posted by Brianna 26 days 16 hours ago.)

White Wicker and A Whole Lot of Love
When my parents retired, we gave them white wicker rockers and a table for their front porch. Over the years, many wonderful memories were created there. When I visited, I’d have early morning coffee and late afternoon beers with my dad on that porch. Somewhere in between, my mother and I would sit and talk for hours. Once while sitting there, we laughed hysterically as my son... (posted by Brianna 40 days 18 hours ago.)

Spring is Here! Love and Divorce Are in the Air!
Spring is a time of renewal and fresh starts. Many of us thoroughly clean our homes, closely examining cracks and crevices we’ve ignored all year long. We polish and shine, we de-clutter. We get rid of things we no longer need or feel an attachment to. Apparently the same can be said for our love life. It’s spring, and although love may be in the air, so is...

Dealing with Road Rage
It happened years ago. My husband was driving. We were traveling down a four-lane highway on our way to a party. Suddenly I became aware of him continually checking the rearview mirror. “What are you looking at?” I asked. “Some idiot riding my ass,” he replied. Much like the wife in Christmas Vacation , when the rednecks did the same to Clark Griswold , I said... (posted by Brianna 52 days 4 hours ago.)

A Little Slice of Heaven and A King-Size Bed
Really. Who wants to hear every boring detail of someone else’s vacation? So . . . I spent a week packing and repacking, and deciding what to wear to the airport. I’d seen lots of women all dolled up wearing four-inch shoes traipsing through the airport, and although I didn’t want to look like a bum, I wanted to be comfortable. I chose to dress semi-casual....

Searching for More...
I had plenty of time to reflect on my life as I waited in the customer service line at Wal-Mart, a well-intentioned yoga mat clutched in my hand. My husband had purchased it for my daughter for Christmas but since she’d received two of them, his was going back. He hated returning things (does anyone enjoy it?), so I volunteered. The place was a zoo. In fact, it seemed busier than before the... (posted by Brianna 126 days 1 hour ago.)
