Greetings Everyone! Spring is in full force and I am soooo glad it is here. I hope everyone is doing great. I wanted to thank everyone who has been sending me email feedback about my recent articles concerning date rape drugs. If you missed those series of articles, I will provide the links in the below section.

If you visit the site soon, you will notice I have changed my last name. This is because next Saturday, May 5th, I will be getting married to Chuck finally! I went ahead and changed my name on the site so I don't forget. The past few months have been crazy. I started a new job at the beginning of February after being a stay at home mom for a year, planning the wedding, Wesley started playing soccer, and Aubrey started preschool. Chuck and I are still taking college classes on top of all of that too! So life, to me, is good!
