FinishQuantum-4

If you missed it somewhere along the way, a few months ago I joined the Finish Revolution. I switched out my regular Finish Tabs for Finish Quantum and never looked back. I love them because they get my dishes clean, even without rinsing.

My Mom

She would have been 55 today. I miss her. My Mom never got to see me get married, have babies or see them grow up. I hope she found peace in death that she never had in life. She’s been gone almost 12 years. For the back story you can read here. I have not edited [...]

As [...]

Jergans Ultra Care Extra Dry Skin Moisturizer

If you are like me and your hands turn in to shriveled up cracking hands of pain in the winter then you need to go buy this lotion. I am flabbergasted at how well it works. I have spent years trying various lotions and potions trying to save my poor hands from misery each winter. [...]

An interview with my oldest Daughter.
