I wanted to KILL the Starbucks guy!!!

(Before you judge me – hear me out!)
 
I was flying home from a conference and I was excited because my ticket said A03. That meant I could get on the plane first to pick my seat!

Abuse. Bankruptcy. Divorce. My life was kind of CRAZY!

I remember, so clearly, EXACTLY where I was…

Our family was always a little different than everyone else in the campground.

Seriously! Camping out can be a really nice vacation. (Especially if you’re cheap like me.)

You get to sleep outside in a tent, set up a lawn chair under the stars, hear the campfire popping and crackling while you roast up some s’mores.

“Don’t move me! Don’t move me… my NECK!” 

Recently, we were in Colorado for a conference and I just HAD to go skiing.

(Because, when you’re at a conference on the side of a snowy mountain, you have to rent some ski gear and give it a TRY. Right?)

As a kid, did you ever hear “Go out in the backyard and pick out a switch?” 

Well, I picked up EVERY single stick in the whole yard. That yard was the cleanest it had ever been.

Then, I carefully inched… my… way… over to… the fence and chucked those puppies right OVER!
