In an era when it seems like every single celebrity has a sex tape floating around, now we can add Jimi Hendrix to the list. Well, allegedly.

I have kept quiet about my opinion regarding the FLDS sect in Texas. Until now.
The latest headline reads: “Half of sect’s teen girls have been pregnant.”

I have been energized to get the outside gardens in shape lately. I am tired of the frequent weeding, so I have started putting down landscaping fabric and mulch in all of the gardens that line the house. I have the ones out front finished. I think that tomorrow I will be able to get […]

My daughter is going through a period of her life where she really wants a brother or a sister. She told me this week that she has an imaginary sister and an imaginary brother. I heard her playing with them several times this week.
