I have always said that I prefer the company of my dogs to many humans I know.
I write a lot about my daughter and husband.  I write a lot about the thing that still amazes me – that somehow I am a Mom.  Not a morning passes without me waking up and wondering how, after [...]

So, I was from one of those “you will sit there until bedtime if you don’t eat” upbringings. I’m not fat, but I soon learned that just shoving it all in even if I wasn’t hungry made Mom and Dad infinitely happier than seeing me pouting at the table all night. From there comes my [...]
