Is it just me or has CBD oil become the new kale? CBD oil, short for cannabidiol oil, is extracted from the flowers and buds of marijuana or hemp plants. It’s missing sufficient quantities of the chemical tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) to produce the “high” normally associated...
My three older girls race to my car as soon as they see it in the car pool line. Are they excited to see me? Probably not. I’m the mom who scoffs at their requests to stop at Sonic on the way home (a bold...
Nine years is long enough to accomplish something really good. Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel frescoes? Ten years. Einstein’s theory of general relativity? Eight years. The moon landing? Eight years. U2 when they were good (1983-1991)? Eight years. Nine years is also the length of time it...
