I have always tried to live life with a positive outlook. But I'm not going to lie - right now, I am having a very hard time doing that. It's like I just can't find the awesomeness inside me any more. I am questioning my choices and my worth almost daily. Sometimes though, just when you need it the most, the good Lord shows you the light inside yourself. Today, I saw it in the eyes of a child and heard it in his voice. Hopefully you will too. :-)

This week will be a hard one! After over 2 years, Half Pint is leaving WKDQ for a grown-up job. We have lived through her engagement, shower, wedding, post wedding drama, family issues, school, 21st b-day and graduation from college. And although we have been hard on her at times both on air and off, we love her dearly and she will be greatly missed. But as with our real children, even our radio daughter must leave the nest. :-(

Even though you think I'm funny in the mornings (ok, half of you...alright, some of you...FINE, a FEW of you...GEEZ, OK, a COUPLE of you, OMG...OK, just my mom!), I still can't tell a REAL joke.

Well, if YOU are like ME, I have found a video to help all of my fellow joke telling ignominious'!

If you have flown at all over the last few years, you are very familiar with the announcement about turning off your electronic devices to prepare for departure or landing. Actor Alec Baldwin created quite a scene a while back while on a plane when he refused to stop playing 'Words with Friends' on his smartphone. They say the devices could interfere with the planes instruments during takeoff and landing. Turns out, that is not entirely true. In fact, not true at all.
