I’m sure everyone thinks of their mom as number #1. I sure do! My mom is a rock star in my eyes; she’s always been. I definitely got my task master skills from her. A master coordinator, she’s enjoying retirement by planning family reunion #2! This time, it’s her side of the family. It’s just Read More →
At the Ol’ Ball Game …
April 2nd, 2012
Calle Mami This is perhaps the busiest time of year for me. Being a Little League mom, I live at the ballpark. No complaints here, I love it!

That Prized Tooth
March 2nd, 2012

Unwritten
January 20th, 2012
Calle Mami It’s been a painful number of days; hard to write … My beloved dogs vanished from my yard; an oversight by my mother-in-law. Truth be told, I couldn’t even look at her because I was so upset. I believe I discovered first hand how “seething” actually felt. That was an emotional jolt I don’t wish Read More →
A White Christmas
December 26th, 2011
Calle Mami The snow-capped mountains in San Simon, Arizona are pretty. The way the clouds wrapped around the peaks like a shiny ribbon, I was impressed. So were the kids. Deric: “It looks like a picture!” Seeing snow was a pleasant surprise leading up to Christmas. They don’t see it much in person. This holiday road trip Read More →
Well Excuse Me
December 13th, 2011
Calle Mami People never cease to amaze. And, I have to wonder sometimes how they were raised. Common courtesy, decency and basic etiquette. Hate to say, but many people need a crash course these days. I’m ridiculously punctual.
