CMT Crossroads Taping with Train and Martina…or the battle of the sprayed on pants!
I finally heard from CMT that I was “in” for the taping of Crossroads with Train and Martina McBride. I must admit, I didn’t know anything about that show, since I’m not a big country music fan, but what a brilliant idea. It introduces artists to a whole other audience…I didn’t know Martina’s music, even …

Obama supporters in Harlem…Sad
I made a decision when I started keeping a blog that it would NOT be a place for my political views. I like to keep them to myself. I don’t feel like espousing my viewpoint would really do much to change anyone else’s, nor do I want to have to argue with anyone about why …

Door to Door Magazine Solicitors
Yesterday afternoon, I was in my office and H was upstairs doing her homework and the doorbell rang. I looked out and there was a young man standing there, no car visible anywhere, and I didn’t recognize him, so we didn’t answer the door. I watched him walk away from our house, up the street …

Before I was a mom…
I can’t take credit for the following…it came from someone else, but the part about feeling your heart outside your body…I’ve never heard it expressed that way before… Before I was a Mom –didn’t know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.I didn’t know how special it could feel to feed a hungry …
