My Night Watchman
I didn’t know much about police officers growing up. I lived in a small town with a sheriff’s department which we good-naturedly called Barney Fife. After having been married to my husband, an almost 10 year veteran of the police force, and having represented abused and neglected children I know more. I know police haveContinue reading “My Night Watchman”

Just One Thing
I look around in despair. So much to do; so many decisions to make. Do any of these actions get me closer to where I am supposed to be or am I like the hamster futilely running on the treadmill of life? I need something to fill up the emptiness inside. Something stronger than theContinue reading “Just One Thing”
