Monday- I am thankful for…

Doughnuts. Those sweet circles of goodness that for a few seconds can distract my brain from the chaos of life. I know I hear ya. Stress eating is bad. I am sure that Hanson Gregory, an American, who claimed to have invented the ring-shaped doughnut in 1847, did not mean for me to use them as…

Smiles

Share smiles not frowns. If you are like me you are sad that you can’t hug your friends right now. I am even limiting how much I hug my family. We can share a smile at no risk. I am a smiling fool. Every time I see a sad or more often a scowling person…

My grandparents grew up in rural Alabama in an age where if something was broken you fixed it. They grew vegetables, baked bread and…
