Welcome!

I'm often amazed and confused by the bizarre happenings behind the closed and competitive doors of the typical suburban home. The following is a place to share my thoughts and reflections on daily life as I try to navigate this crazy and wonderful world.

Deep Thoughts. . .


Life is short,
Break the rules,
Forgive quickly,
Kiss slowly,
Love truly,
Laugh uncontrollably,
And never regret anything that made you smile.

Now I just feel guilty for sometimes getting bored when someone kisses TOO slowly. Maybe they read this list too?? :) I think I missed the romantic bone.

So nice when something so short and sweet really means something...I often stop to 'smell the roses' and am happy every time I remember to do so...
