How Men Sign Cards
Okay.. we all know that men and women are different. It’s the whole Mars and Venus thing. But nothing brings that home quite like asking your husband to sign a card for the holidays. Every time it’s the same.. I give him cards to sign for the family.. I always sneak a peek at what he writes… And every time it looks like this: They do exactly what we ask them to do. Sign the card. I’m honestly surprised I get a “Love, ” out of it. I bet if they had their way, they’d just sign their name. Or even better – first initial, last name. You give me a card and I’m going to write out a couple of sentences of sentiment. At the very least, I want the recipient to know that I did more than just sign my name and lick an envelope.

Don’t Get Caught With Your Pants Down – Being Ready for an Emergency
Do you know when the best time is to plan for an emergency or a crisis? When you’re not in the middle of one, that’s when. Would you know what to do if a major crisis hit your home or your town? And by major I mean “Holy Mother Mary of God - batten down the hatches” major – not “they’re calling for an inch of snow”. Would you be ready if the police knocked on your door and said “you have 5 minutes to gather your things and evacuate“? And by ready, I mean your emergency plan and supplies are already in place and all you have to do is swoop them up and get in your car? And not just in place but in place and able to sustain you and your family for at least 72 hours? If your answer was “no” or “not really” please make this a top priority. … read more
Welcome to Text-as: The Pudding Edition
I’ve decided that I have enough humorous text exchanges (textchanges?) with my family that I need to dedicate an entire section of the site. And I even have a name… Welcome to Text-as. Added bonus? I get to toss in some love for my family (crap… MOST of my famiy) down in.. TEXAS! Here’s this week’s best text conversation… Really? And just for the record… she did NOT get the pudding or water delivered. And I’m pretty sure she lived. Welcome to my world! And please.. don’t mind the typo. Damn you auto-correct!
