Politics – Good, Bad, and Ridiculous!

What’s Your Opinion?

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m finding this election stuff really hard to take this time around.  We have so many unsettling issues to solve and really not happy with the process this week.

What do you think about it?

Welcome to My Ordinary Life!

life can be fulfilling or draining…choose your thoughts carefully!

Welcome!

This site is set up for those of us living an ordinary life.  I know that most of us spend so much of our lives trying to make things better that we forget to enjoy the very life that we already have!  This is a quick reminder to stop for just a minute and appreciate what we have.  Life isn’t always perfect, but we can still be happy and content every day.

There’s a lot going on in our lives every day.  Remember that you’re not alone on this journey.  Let’s talk about things that matter to us.  I would love for you to share your thoughts, stories, ideas for conversations, and comments.   I’m looking forward to talking with you soon!
