Required by law in most states, it is a monthly expense that you may not ever need, but if you do, you will be very glad that you have it.

How Can I Honor the Man with No Regrets?
August 24. Today is my father’s birthday.

Have you read Bronnie Ware’s “Regrets of…

GET YOUR MOTOR RUNNING… with Kia’s World-Class Vehicles
My wife and I were invited to attend the Kia Exclusive Brand Experience showcasing Kia’s lineup of world-class vehicles down at The Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego. We headed down from Orange County and they definitely treated us like rock-stars!

Powers report, this company has turned around their image and quality of cars to become one of the safest cars available and top the JD…

Comic Con 2016 delivers and then some!
This week I had a chance to sit down with the filmmakers, producer and stars of the upcoming Dream Works Animation movie Trolls Justin Timberlake and Anna Kendrick at Comic Con in San Diego. And when I say sit-down, I mean at a round-table setting within feet of the one and only JT! Yes, I was in heaven. Be sure to check out my post in the coming weeks about this interview and I’ll share some funny stories with you all like when Justin broke out singing Madonna’s “Like a Virgin” for us mom bloggers (we all about died). I can say he was super down-to-earth as was Anna and…

The Netflix Sneak :: What’s the Craziest Place You’ve Watched Netflix?
The Netflix Sneak: In the bathroom? Under the covers? Where have you done it?
