There’s no question about it. Life can be stressful. At times, it can feel like it’s coming at you from every angle. I’m told, however, it’s not the type of stress, it’s how you deal with the stress– that is the concern.

Those were some of the best days because Mom and I would take a road trip somewhere, or go to the mall, or go out to eat, and just have a […]

I’m going to tell you a story, with which you may possibly relate.  I thought I’d jump out on a limb and allow my friend to color my hair. Mind you, my hair was in desperate need of attention.
