3/16

Many people have asked what I will be doing next week to mark the one year anniversary of Dan’s death. I have to admit that the topic was causing me stress, as I am sure it was others who are trying to figure out what to say to me or even do on their own. I really did struggle with it. Dan died...

Fight or Flee

Seems like lately I’ve been more on the fleeing side than fighting. Probably because it was this time last year that things really hit the fan. Bad news seemed to come daily, and there was nothing we could really do. I admit, it’s a tough time. Not just for me, but for everyone in our little...
