The 15 Second Rule

We have a rule in our house called the “15 second rule.” I thought it was a great idea for all of us to take 15 seconds to “breathe” before we respond to something or someone who is making us mad or upset. Come to think of it, I probably made up this rule...

The $78,000 Babysitting Job

Apparently NFL’s San Diego Chargers have a tradition: the team’s rookie first-rounder has to take the team out to dinner. No pre-selected menu. No dollar limit....

AssHat Award: Miley Cyrus and her pole dancing

My daughter will be nine years old next month. She likes Miley Cyrus. Correction, she likes the show Hannah Montana. That when she gets a chance to watch it. Most of the time she’s playing outside, digging up worms, riding her bike, swimming or snuggling up with me at night with a good book....
