Tap, tap. Hello?
Sorry I disappeared for so long. Actually, I’m not. Sorry I lied. I can’t believe there are still people out there reading this blog, waiting for an update from this chick who, without shame or remorse, deserted you for so long.
I don’t have a reason to have maintained radio silence for as long [...]
A few weeks ago I was contacted by Big Honcho Media asking if I’d like to give away a copy of a newly released book, The Ocean Between Us along with a little extra somethin’, somethin’.
Frank Sinatra\’s I\’ll Be Home for Christmas
The first installment of the 12 Days of Christmas is My Favorite Christmas Song. For someone who began listening to Christmas music on July 5th each year, there really aren’t that many Christmas Songs that I don’t like. I’ve since limited my Christmas music to the weeks [...]
It’s Cyber Monday and that means… most of you while you should be working or cleaning the house from the weekend are going to spend time on the computer shopping online perveyors for the best deal you can find. To help you along the way, I’ve put together a short list of things any service [...]

Please, accept my sincere apologies for my unintended absence the past two (!?!) weeks. I wish I had a good story to tell you, something wild and crazy that kept me away. Alas, I have a whole pocket-full of nothings that have kept me from visiting with you (and all of my friends).

I don’t know what it is about the spring, but I find myself wanting to be in New York: exploring the city, relaxing on Long Island or being a little farther north visiting The Husband’s family.

Here’s wishing you a happy and safe Independence Day! Please take a moment to pay tribute to all of our men and women who serve in the armed forces along with their families. The sacrifices of our fellow men to ensure our freedom is a beautiful thing.
Fly your flag high and proud.

As a proud Air Force wife I live my life supporting a "mission first" mentality. Take an inside look at my life inside the silent ranks, the ups and downs of loving a military man and putting our country first. Plus... come along for a sneak peek as the camouflage comes off and I share my love of healthy cooking, photography and kicking butt at Kick-boxing.
