I am a fan of Dog Whisperer. Caesar has such command with those unruly dogs. I was seriously impressed. He discussed how important it is to train the family dog. The people are the alphas in the house. I sipped my coffee and agreed. I looked at…

Jacob’s Sign
I’ve been aware of Heaven, angels and signs for a long time. When I opened Anne’s House of Angels, the news began to spread about my store. I had experienced a visit from my guardian angels years ago during a difficult time in my life. My goal was to have everyone know the serenity and…
In God’s Hands
I sent my husband off to church alone on Sunday. I know. I know. I felt it too. I should have gone to church to thank God for all my blessings. I just wanted some alone time to sit and write. After all, God gave me this talent so I’m sure He’d be happy I’m…
Bully Girls
My second daughter was a cheerleader, gymnast and social butterfly. She got good grades in school. Then bullying reared its ugly head in seventh grade. We’d taken a few of her friends on a weekend ski trip and by Monday she was…

Friends Divided by a Husband
I was making room in our van for my son’s stinky hockey equipment. It was twenty pound bag of pure putrid odor. That’s when my husband introduced me to the mom of another team mate. We chatted it up like we’d known each other for years. We were probably both intoxicated by the hockey bag…
Back to School Blues
I always hated September. When our house was full with five kids, it meant days of preparation to gather back-to-school supplies. I would usually be scampering around at the last minute, looking for black-and-white marbled copybooks. Each store would have two or three, and we needed twenty-five. Now, I know this was partly my fault…
Pillow Talk
At three a.m., I heard my husband wake up to go to the bathroom. When he came back to bed, I could feel his usual flipping of the covers, and he sighed deeply. Then I heard him say: Him: “Do you think I should cut my hair?” He was silent for a few minutes….

The Sexy Step-In Suspender Bra
I recently purchased two new sexy bras. When I got home and put one on, it was a bit tight. The second one was even tighter. Well honestly, I was bursting out everywhere and not in a good way. Even my back had a roll. Behind my armpits, the little wings of chub were screaming…
Sexy in Blue Spike Heels
My husband is a connoisseur of women’s feet. He notices women’s shoes. We live in Florida where flip-flops are considered formal wear. There is a never-ending supply of amusement for him here. He likes high sexy heels on women (obviously). We’ll be out and he’ll say, “Anne, check out her heels. You should get a…
Women’s Lib? Hell No!!
Dear Ms. Steinem, I want to personally thank you for spear heading the movement and for your dedication to improving womens’ lives. The day I ripped my bra off in solidarity of the women’s liberation movement and the chance for more equal opportunities for women, I got caught up in the excitement of the moment….
Sleepovers and Labor Pains
If you are a parent, there will come a time in your life when your daughter will sweetly ask, “Can I have a sleepover?” I’m using your daughter for this example because eighty-nine percent of all sleepovers are with girls. I know it’s true. I Googled it. 1 cm: Your first thought may be pure…
