She’s Back!
The evil hackers made me afraid on my own blog. That is not right. I decided I wasn't going to let them win. My absence showed me I wasn't ready to hang up the towel on this adventure yet. So, I took my ball and instead of going home, I went to a safer playground.… Continue reading She’s Back!
Too Much
Saturday night my website was hacked. Someone came in and put up an alternative post for last Monday. It was an anti-ISIS message.

5 Years
Five years ago today I started my blog. How have five years passed already?!?! I swear I was just doing last minute word smithing on "The Search for Meaning," my first, and still favorite, post.
