As the traditional school calendar came to an unceremonious end a couple weeks ago, the finality of lost senior athletic seasons set in for thousands of senior athletes and their parents. It's over, forever.
Tomorrow is my birthday and I don’t know about you, but birthdays always make me kind of introspective. Like my own little personal New Year’s Eve, I find myself reflecting on not just the last year, but all the years before it. I think about the hard-learned lessons, who I’ve been and the r…

I think a lot about wildflowers. We have these gorgeous white ones that grow in various parts of our yard and every time my husband mows our grass, I gently remind him to leave them standing. Leave them until they’re ready to go.

There's a lot of stuff going around about the Murder Hornets invading us. But as I remember back, I recall another invasion that we thought was almost as bad. Here's how it happened.
I’m not sure why mental health issues are still so hard for us to talk about. I can talk about most any other medical condition I’ve had with ease. Yet, when I think about telling someone that I struggle with depression and anxiety, my throat feels like its closing up. My palms get sweaty an…
In a galaxy far, far away and an amount of years ago that shall remain anonymous, I graduated from Fairview High School. I swear that pieces of my heart still float around the halls, somewhere between the gym where we all gathered for pep rallies and where the auditorium used to be. Actually…
Being a mother of eight in 2020 is something that sets me apart from my peers. I am asked advice as someone who has “been there and done that” on almost every parenting issue. We can safely say that 2020 has afforded the world with issues that no one has “been there, done that.”
As the Safer at Home order is lifted and we venture into the unknown (where are my Frozen 2 fans at?), I have been thinking a lot about what happens next. While we know things may not return to what we came to know as normal for a while, we are at least getting to dip our toes back into the …
I had a column already planned for this week’s issue of Main Street Fairview, but as I sat down and began to write, I received a message from one of my best friends that left me feeling unsettled. The small business she is employed by has closed its doors for an undetermined amount of time d…

Reflecting Back: The Women That Built Me
After what seems like a month of rain and way too many random bouts of cold weather, I think most of us are ready for spring to arrive.
Not sure about over at your house, but we been gettin’ a right smart amount of rain out west here. So much that the old hunnerd highway asphalt has crumbled and the whole road has turned to mud. I ain't been to town since it started raining. I've been afraid to risk it since I don't know how…
