    Let’s talk Coronavirus…

    March 3, 2020 / No Comments

    by Lori Twichell Let’s talk Coronavirus. I’ve been kind of quiet on it other than sharing news stories because this is a local story for me. My news feeds on various social media sites are  split pretty definitively. I have friends who are convinced this is the end of everything and we’re all going to die. I also have friends who believe it’s a full on hoax meant to mess with elections and they are pretty much scoffing at those who are concerned.    Where you stand on the issue doesn’t matter to me, really.  Your opinions don’t change anything about my life or how it’s affecting my family and…

    Conquering 2017 with some speed bumps along the way….

    February 13, 2017 / No Comments

    Hey all! So it’s been kind of quiet lately. I’m sorry about that. Had a bit of a speed bump in my plans to conquer 2017. Oh I still have every intention of conquering – it just might be on a slightly different schedule! About ten days ago I ended up in the hospital. You see, no one ever told me that the gall bladder (something everyone insists you can do without) can make you really, really, sick if you just try to power through an attack. I had an attack in mid-January and they sent me home from the ER and told me to look into surgery – because…

    Product Review: Circle with Disney

    December 12, 2016 / No Comments

    Do you have screen time struggles in your house? We do. I admit that I sort of always sat apart from the folks complaining about their kids and screen time and I was probably a tiny little bit judgmental. Okay, I always thought we had a good handle on our kids with electronics, etc. But then I got to the point where I had three teenagers. And three phones. And multiple computers and tablets. The computers and the tablets are used for school, by the way. But still, I realized we had a problem. It seemed like I was constantly finding one or the other of my kids with their…

    One step at a time….

    November 2, 2016 / No Comments

    I posted this yesterday on my Facebook page (I had too much happening to even attempt to get it over here!) But now I have a little time, so I thought I’d share. 🙂 This is a long update, but stick with me. It turned out to be a mini blog entry that I just don’t have time to put in the blog right now – so putting it here! LOL! So I’m not gonna lie. Yesterday was a really tough day for me. I had just wrapped my brain around a plan, gotten the kids settled on what the next month would look like and literally just decided it…

    Hubby Update: What A Difference a Week Makes!

    October 30, 2016 / 2 Comments

    So a week ago I posted this blog about my hubby’s pain issues and the surgeries that were scheduled for next week. We had, quite literally, no idea what we were walking into. That’s some scary stuff. Looking back at all we’ve been through this week, it still awes me how much we didn’t know. I meant to update Friday evening. And then again on Saturday. But it’s taken me a couple of days to get my head together enough to put my thoughts into something coherent. Writing always helps me process. So this blog is as much for me as it is for you. Yesterday I was exhausted. Couldn’t even…

    How Poker Chips Saved My Sanity

    June 30, 2016 / 1 Comment

    A few years ago, I realized that I was outnumbered by children in my house. I know that is a logical conclusion when you have three kids and two parents, but the reality can sometimes catch you off guard. When the kids graduated out of toddlerville, I needed to come up with a way to manage and handle all of the expectations, chores and rewards in our house. I tried chore charts, stickers, and posters. I attempted morning motivational meetings where we set up the expectations for the day. I wrote out a daily schedule of events. I set up consequences and rules.  None of it stuck. But then came poker…
