March is reading awareness month, so I wanted to share with you a reminder of a childhood classic.  If you remember The BFG by Roald Dahl, you might know that it was released as an animated version back in 1989, well, did you know they re-released it last year?  Yes, they did, so make sure to keep reading!

Please take a minute to think about your insurance.  I know it isn't one that many think about all the time, but since watching the destruction from the tornadoes in Albany, Georgia , I can't begin to imagine what they are going through right now. *** This is a sponsored post.*** Insurance Claim Nightmare: Does Your Insurance Company Really Have Your Back? Imagine returning from a vacation to find your house has been robbed, flooded, or covered in toxic asbestos and harmful fiberglass.  Sadly, this scenario actually happened to Todd Kozikowski's family.

Tragedy hit again.  January 22nd.  I hate to report that this time, there were casualties and it was much worse th
