After our non-lighthouse turned butterfly-hiking photo trip, we were hot, tired and hungry. So we decided to save the Cape Henry Lighthouse in Virginia Beach for another day and opted to find food. I’d seen on Facebook where a friend of mine had posted a picture of this monster sandwich from a place [...]

For Mother’s Day, my two boys planted flowers for me in my front yard. And despite the blazing 100+ degree weather, I’ve managed to keep them alive so far. Which is a feat in and of itself where MY thumb is involved. It’s not so green. I can kill plastic flowers. [...]

**Think “Annie” when you read that title** The sun actually came out today though! But I’ve had that song in my head all day.

I don’t know which one. What I DO know is that exploding heads and toothaches don’t go very well together.

A dear old friend and neighbor that I met when I moved to Virginia Beach over 20 years ago lost her son yesterday. He was 26 years old. He and my boys played together, went to school together, grew up together. It saddens my heart deeply that my friend has suffered such [...]

Apparently, I have yet another new neighbor. At the streetlight in front of my house where I set my garbage out for pickup, this is what I found last night strung up between the lightpole and the tree. Mr. Freaky Spider! And he said, “Hey Lady! Watch it now. Don’t [...]
