This is the cutest gift ever! I came across this site and I have to share it. You can custom order any word you want. I simply LOVE these prints. Not only are they amazing, the owners are great people. I left a simple comment telling them how much I loved their work, and they took the time to call me and thank me for the comment. If everyone took a few minutes from their day to be that kind, the world would be in much better shape. Take a few minutes and look at their site. It lets you play with the letters and create your own signs. What a great gift for anyone. http://framethealphabet.com/

With my marriage, I was numb. It was like after you have been hit in the same spot so many times, you just lose any sense of pain. But this was different. I took ...

After 23 years of marriage, I decided that I needed a life. A happy life. I was tired and unhappy and decided it was ok to put myself first. Now, I did not just leave my life and move to paradise. I spent about 13 years getting my degree from Southern New Hampshire University online while I worked full time. I moved to michigan and I also built my career. I work for Little Unicorn and I love my job and the company. I will get into that in another post because it deserves its own post. After my kids were married and settled and done with school, I decided that I was going to build a life for myself. A single woman in her 50's can start over.
