Santa Claus might not have a big white beard or black boots but he does have jolly red cheeks and a good spirit inside of him. Last year I couldn’t afford gifts for the kids we got some from my oldest son’s school. Usually I would have looked at the gifts beforehand but everything was…

Sometimes I have so much to say that I say absolutely nothing at all. I guess this will be an attempt at a life update. Right now life is terrifying, I want to pull the blankets over my head and come out in a year or two after everything has already crashed and burned. My…
