Okay, in reality, it was a 5:40 am minivan, but the Georgia part was right. The plan was to get up early, while the kids were still sleepy enough to fall right back asleep in the van, and away we would go. We were on our way to my in-laws, and we had a good [...]

The truth hurts…

Does it really? I had an egg, an egg white, 2 pieces of turkey bacon and a piece of toast for breakfast. That’s the truth. That didn’t hurt (unless, I guess, you’re a vegetarian). The truth doesn’t always hurt. Sometimes it’s just fact. The truth only hurts when it’s something that matters. When it’s hard [...]
