Life Stories: You Seriously Can't Make This Stuff Up!

Welcome to the part of my life where things don't always go according to plan. Actually, who am I kidding? They rarely do!

Between raising three kids, being a military wife, moving around, and just trying to survive everyday life, I've collected enough stories to keep us entertained for a while.

Some will make you laugh. Some might make you shake your head. And every now and then, one might tug at your heartstrings.

These stories aren't necessarily going to be in order, because let's face it, neither is my brain most days!

Grab your coffee, get comfortable, and enjoy. And please, share your own stories, because I know I'm not the only one who's lived through some ridiculous situations!
