In August 2008 I took a trip to California.  It was a blast!  I stayed for over a week and visited many places.  One that sticks out in my mind was San Francisco.  I love the TV show Monk and it is filmed there.  That is not the only reason, however.  I saw the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and sp...

As a mother of two teenage girls I pay close attention to what they are doing and who they speak with on the internet.  They are aware of my watchful eyes.  However, you can never be too careful.  This morning I took my 16 yr daughter's laptop for a spin.  She video IM's and all her friends are s...

There was an impressive turnout for the Bow Wow Pow Wow at Bill Allen Park in The Colony, TX.  Many people enjoyed the opportunity to spend time with other dog lovers and get to know local vendors in our community.  I am one of the volunteers raising money for a dog park.  The city has approved t...

It is that time again.  The economy is in turmoil, unemployment rates are high and the price of gas is through the roof, AGAIN.  We are in need of nothing less than a knight in shining armor.  So where is he/she?  I am not able to cast a confident vote yet.  Come election day I will, however. I w...

Saturday was the best day I have had in a long time.  The family got up early, went to my favorite breakfast restaurant, did a little shopping, and then we all worked out together.  (Working out consists of swimming laps in a pool at the junior college).  I stopped by Famous Footwear to replace m...
