Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty.

I hear words like “handsomeness” and “incredibly chiseled features” and for me that’s like a vanity that I don’t buy into.

I’m pretty sure there’s more to life than being really, really ridiculously good looking, and I plan on finding [...]

Here are some pictures of our sprinkler park outing yesterday.  As usual, Skyler was slightly more nervy.  She actually really liked it, and had several conversations with herself about the wawa after we left.  I think Sydney liked it a lot too, but she didn’t really want to get wet.  She’s more of a sunbather, [...]

You know these things?

Why don’t these exist in medical offices?  I can’t be the only one floored by the lack of transparency in the medical profession.  I can’t be the only one who is tired of going in for an office visit and ending up with hundreds of dollars in bills.  Especially when they don’t [...]
