When You See A Cardinal It’s finally Spring and I can hear the birds chirping outside of my windows every day. One of my favorite birds to see are Cardinals. Did you know that cardinals represent a lot of different things to people?   A few of the most popular meanings when you see a cardinal are new beginnings, confidence, strength, good fortune, happiness, romance, determination and one of my favorite meanings of an angel being near.  When a red cardinal crosses your path it could be trying to tell you many different things. Maybe a romantic relationship in the future? A new chapter in your life is about to start? They often say that cardinals are sent to those in need during difficult times. Now when you see two red cardinals together you should embrace their message. It's supposed t...

Have you ever given it a second thought as to why stubbing your toe hurts so much. I can't say that I ever had but because of Timmothy's cartoon I did 10 minutes of research (twice the time of most of my research. 😊I even found a book on Amazon.The best information I found was by the  Silverman Ankle & Foot blog  If you’re like most people stubbing your big toe or your pinky toe can leave you howling in pain. Why is that? When you stub your toe you’re subjecting your skin, nail and bone to physical trauma. The trauma of a stubbed toe may cause more than surface level pain. You can bruise your nail bed, which can lead to bleeding and compression of areas in your toe.You don’t have much fat or muscle to help protect the toe from injury. Because you won’t find natural padding (fat) on your...

We are hoping for something that resembles Spring up here in the Northland. I woke this morning to 4 degrees and decided it would be another day for thermal long underwear.While Spring doesn't bring an end to the cold season it will bring an end to the c-c-cold season. I'm sure those who struggle with allergies would rather keep the cold but most of us are ready for 50+ temps.This guy might not like the 50's

ActiveRain MeetUp - Caroling in Southern Utah! When I realized that Carol Williams would be passing through St. George, lunch plans and a tee-time were immediately made. Due to the influx of new residents to my selling area, open slots to golf can be 15 -  30 days out. Our golf destination was Southgate Golf Course for a quick 9-holes. The chicken taco's there at the restaurant were the bomb. After being notified we were up, we drove from hole #10 and that's when the hilarious fun began! Caroling at Southgate Golf Course Carol played a total of 43 times over the winter months, It was my first time out this year. She hit the ball straight and true, while I hacked my way into sand traps, the rough, ricocheting the ball off rocks, up and down the rolling hills. We decided to play best ball...
