I never believed in Santa Claus. It’s okay, don’t pity me. It saved me the effort of writing letters and later wondering why I hadn’t gotten things my mom couldn’t possibly afford. It also didn’t stop me from enjoying the holiday. No harm, no foul. I did believe in the Tooth Fairy until I ran […]

My Lame Excuses for Not Going out With My Husband
The last time my husband and I went out to dinner alone was on our anniversary. We didn’t go anywhere fancy just to our favorite local Mexican restaurant. The evening was a great success.
