Have you ever sent your husband out to get milk but he comes back with milk plus this and that and some other thing you don’t need? Well today I sent my husband out to buy a new cd/tape player that was on sale at The Warehouse but instead he came home with a new [...]
My three year old nephew was singing to me the other day. His choice of song was “Old MacDonald had a farm” which seemed more like a jungle than a farm to me as he started singing about tigers and lions. The song quickly turned dark as those tigers and lions started hunting me. This [...]
