Thursday, May 31st, 2012A Mascot With a Larger Growl
I am a graduate of St. Francis College. I ABSOLUTELY loved St. Francis because it was a small college & the faculty cared about the students. When I tell people that my college experience included walking around the city with Professor Sparr on Saturday morning or going out to dinner with my professors (Dr. Hughes [...]
Monday, May 28th, 2012When Memorial Day Became A Holiday for Me
As a child, I heard of war mentioned in social studies classes. I heard my parents talk about their uncle who served in the “big one.” I saw my father watch many military television shows.

Three years ago today, we met our house. I can hardly believe it’s been three years already. Every year we have a party for the house because we like parties AND it’s one of the best things to celebrate. I have a lot to do this morning for our barbecue. Yesterday we met our new [...]

Tuesday, May 15th, 2012A Birthday Gift with Another Purpose
A friend gave me this ring sculpture. I absolutely love it. Several months ago, while we walked through Crate and Barrel, I admired it. I loved that it is made of metal and is so simple. My friend remembered how much I liked it and bought it for my birthday. I placed it on the [...]
