Working Again

Guest post from: Constance Rodgers

Being a stay at home mom was all I ever thought I wanted to do but to be honest with you, it didn’t take long for it to grow old.

Please Santa Help Me See

Tis the time for Santa to come and bring presents to everyone provided he can see where he is going. Just like Santa Clause as we age it becomes harder to see and then we must wear eyeglasses. Not being able to see correctly is not only dangerous but unhealthy as well. Sometimes it is hard to convince ourselves we must wear eyeglasses but eventually if you want to see you will have to give in. The problem is not only getting used to wearing eyeglasses but the cost to purchase them as well. It is heartbreaking when you lose More >
