I’m in a season of life where I really don’t watch much TV except for live sports. Ok…and Grey’s Anatomy and This is Us. Besides that, I really don’t watch TV, but I do find myself watching several YouTube channels on my phone when I’ve got some down time. Usually it’s when I’m getting ready… Continue reading Favorite YouTube Channels

I’ve taken a 30 day blogging break, but I’m happy to say that I’m back! During the last month or so, we went on a beach vacation and I also spent a good amount of time working on my business.

Continued from Part 1 and Part 2 We arrived at UAB around 11 PM and met the nurses in ICU. They were wonderful! The doctor came in and briefed us, and then asked for our cell phone numbers just in case she needed to reach us. Mom, Sara, and I made our way to a… Continue reading Daddy Part 3
