Life's what you make it

Last Saturday my girl attended "virtual" Prom. Facts are facts. She missed going dress shopping and having a special lunch with Gloria and I. She missed having her hair done "special". She missed the fancy dress, going to dinner, staying out until 1 AM with her friends - she sure did. She and every other senior across the country.

They made NEW memories. They had UNIQUE experiences. And they did it for the GOOD of society as a whole. Somewhere someone spent their Prom Night in a hospital bed, or worrying about a family member in the hospital. Life is bigger than Prom. Life's what you make it.

Happy Spring Break my sweet boy!

Consumed me to the point I feel prosecuted as a white woman of privilege. Quit accusing me of crimes I didn't commit!  so I wrote this:  If I corrected you for using the "wrong hashtag" it was because I care about the cause we are supporting. I wanted it to get the credit it deser

I started being more active on my Instagram story by posting daily... It has been a LOT of work but it's fun. This quiz was hard actually. Brought back memories of high school when I put paper clips through my ears as earrings. What a rebel.
