When my sister was going through pregnancy, I learned more about her eating habits and sensitivities then I ever thought I would. Like before being pregnant she could stand spaghetti!! During the pregnancy, she wanted that everyday an on everything, if possible. There we’re also certain things I had to be cautious with around her, […]
I’m a confessed and professed nerd…on many things. Predominantly facts on anything and everything I can get my hands on, like holidays and events most don’t know or let slip past! So, if you’re not like myself, you may not know that it is National Park week. What’s cool about that is:
Growing up as a kid in south Texas, there we’re hot days and even hotter summers (the words “It’s Hot” were heard as common as “I’m good”). But no matter what the temperature was outside was, my parents made an effort to have us enjoy the scenery around us. Now, to the person from California, New […]
You find a $20 bill on the ground as you walk straight from the grocery store automatic sliding doors to your small, yet reliable car. It’s easy to assume that the person who lost this is no where to be found and probably will never realize it’s disappeared. But do you keep it?
For you, the person who has majorly horrendous migraines quite frequently, my condolences!!
A lot of things can happen in a week, so I know what notes in front of me are nothing shocking. A planner full of upcoming events, talking points and ideas for the evening show, music that still needs to be listened to–a little overwhelming after not having a full-time job in awhile. A little […]
Minus the cold spells we’ve been having recently here in East Texas, spring is upon us and weekends of outdoor time can be just around the corner. To celebrate those fun times waiting to happen, here are a few ideas of what to take when you decide a picnic is needed
If you’re a parent, you know that your child or children can be little angels one minute, and … well, not so angelic the next. I talk about Caroline on the air a lot, but I’ve promised myself I would never become one of those parents who thinks their kid is perfect. Caroline reminded me […]
If you have a sweet-tooth like myself, you know keeping the sugar far away is the only way you won’t gain an extra 100 pounds by the end of 2013. But instead of digesting it, sugar is great for many other things that won’t give you cavities in the end.
You see something in a magazine and decided to point it out to your husband or wife. One question leads to another, followed by remarks that start to blow waaaay out of proportion. All of a sudden you are frustrated beyond any sane word, and can’t do anything but sigh…or cry…or act mute for a […]
The sniffling, sneezing and eyes that can’t see anything 4 inches in front of you. Sounds like the intro to a TV commercial, but it’s the reality behind horrible allergies. Thankfully, so far I haven’t had to deal with them that badly, but any part of it is annoying. To remedy them, meds could be […]
Yes, your infant may be hungry or going through teething that is completely unbearable. But did you know that there may be other reasons to why your little one can’t go to sleep and is splitting your eardrums in half? Here are a few other reasons the crying continues on:
Sometimes there are those Facebook/Twitter posts that give you the jolt of laughter you needed that day. But some, like the one my dear friend Ashton posted, that I should NEVER read or watch before I’m about to go on the air. As she wrote along with the video: “Perception is huge! I struggle with […]
When it comes to warm welcomes, I can honestly say that East Texas knows how to do it, and so do my new co-workers. But then again, I shouldn’t be surprised, being originally from Texas, and growing-up with the well-known custom of southern hospitality (and the looks if you DIDN’T extend it)
There are lots of things you can do together after dinner besides vegging in front of the “tube.” Try one of these TV-free family evening ideas to unwind together before bed:
Every now and then, I run across something online that is so powerful, so insightful, so riveting that I actually get a little bit “hacked” that I didn’t think to write it myself. This is one of those times. Even worse, I cannot find out who authored this to give them appropriate credit. Regardless, it’s […]
