As you probably already know, cats enjoy sleeping. In fact, I’d even go so far as to say they LIVE FOR IT. Hey, we’re not here to knock the lifestyle of any human being or animal, so we’re going to support their decision to snooze their days away. Actually, if we’re being honest, I’m kind of jealous… But these...
You can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your family. And you DEFINITELY can’t pick who your mom is. Because, yanno, that’s just not how all of that works. And sometimes your mom is a teenager who got a little frisky perhaps a bit too early… and now you’re here! Congrats! You’re alive. But it does make for...
There aren’t too many positive stories out there when it comes to parents who are incarcerated. We think about the poor kids they left behind, the families they left in the lurch, and also the people who are left hurting because of the crimes they committed in the first place.

They are attempting to bamboozle you. Don’t fall victim to it. To protect you from bamboozlement, I have listed what I suspect to...
My parents tend to chase crows and starlings away from their bird feeders. They’re not as pretty as the smaller birds, and they eat a lot more.

There they go again! I’m talking about the husbands of the world, who always seem to be up to some kind of shenanigans. They’re corny, they tell bad jokes, they purposely get on their wives’ nerves, and, most importantly, they’re FUNNY.
