Pandemic Parenting – Why We Gain And Lose In The Era Of Covid-19
The world is coming up on an anniversary. In March 2022, it will be two years since the world shut down. I remember it as if it was yesterday. Government officials said in two weeks, we would be getting back to normal, don’t panic; we only need to flatten the curve. Two weeks became two ... -
Why You Need A Quarantine Game Plan!
I’m the person who disinfects Lysol cans. So, when my husband tested positive for Covid, to say it shocked me was an understatement. Questions of where he went wrong consumed me.

Crying During COVID
Over the past eight months I thought about starting a journal to capture what my life looked like and felt like during the COVID-19 pandemic. But I couldn’t bring myself to sit down and do it. While the thought was a good idea, I haven’t had the energy or the motivation to unpack all these ... -
