Ask anyone who has gone to see the movie and they will confirm that Mr Pool is your perfect Valentine’s Day hero. He is dressed in red, has a heart of gold, and a charming personality with a killer sense of humor. It doesn’t hurt that the…
I couldn’t live not knowing where the keys are, Where all the cups and plates are stored. I couldn’t live not knowing where my wallet was, where my cellphone went, or where I can find the instructions for the new vacuum cleaner. I couldn’t live not knowing where the new video game purchase, or two, […]
February celebrates National E-Week and this year, I’d like to try to start a movement to celebrate all engineering spouses.

This is why our entire house was painted the same shade of Standing […]
I got introduced to this game during my sister’s five day stint at a local hospital. She had asked my husband to get her a Switch during the Black Friday sales as a gift to herself for successfully Adulting as a TSA agent. Little did she know that it would help distract her in between […]
A few months ago we decided to cut our loses and finish the closing inspection pick ups for the new house ourselves. We are still holding hope that the hydroseed installation will happen after we pay to level the yard (another contention point). Hopefully my builder will do his part to avoid litigation. Winning the […]
There’s one feedback item that has haunted my career: You are never at your desk! Because the word never is an absolute, my first response is to remind them that no one is ever at their desks 24/7 but that clearly doesn’t appease them.
