Tale 1: “Sorry Honey, Can’t Pick You Up… My Ego’s In The Way!”
After a week-long conference in Singapore, all I wanted was to see my husband Jake at the airport. Instead, he texted to say he was helping Katie from accounting move her couch.
I called his best friend Chris for backup and, while Jake enjoyed his couch-moving adventures, I prepared a romantic dinner for Chris and me. When Jake walked in, he was met with a candlelit table and Chris sipping his special wine.
Jake squirmed through dinner while I praised Chris’s reliability over his “furniture emergency.” The next time Katie needed help, Jake mysteriously became terrified of furniture. Turns out, a little pasta and petty revenge can work wonders!
50 Shades of Granny: A Lingerie Lesson in Humility
My husband Rob had been saving for a vintage Mustang, which meant I was stuck wearing boring cotton underwear. Then I discovered a group chat where he’d shared a photo of my “granny panties” for laughs.
Instead of sulking, I involved his mother, who took me shopping for a designer dress that cost his car fund. I surprised Rob at home, flaunting my new look and sending a selfie to his friends. Now, his “car fund” is officially the “Happy Wife Fund,” and I framed my granny panties as a reminder!
The Day My Man Flu Became My Mother-in-Law’s Boot Camp
While I was bedridden with the flu, my husband Pete hosted a Super Bowl party in our bedroom. When he asked me to grab snacks, I called his mom, Eleanor.
She arrived like a whirlwind, turning our home into a military operation. While I relaxed, Pete and his friends deep-cleaned everything. Now, every time I sniffle, Pete turns into a caring nurse, proving that a mother-in-law’s intervention can fix “selective caretaking syndrome.”
My 30th Birthday Surprise
I hinted for weeks about my upcoming 30th birthday, but Pete ditched me for a concert with his co-worker Emma. Instead of being upset, I snagged backstage passes and performed onstage, calling out Pete for celebrating with another woman.
The crowd loved it, and now Pete treats my birthday like a national holiday. Emma? She’s mysteriously developed a dislike for concerts.

Iconic ’80s Teen Star Fights Cancer on a Remote Farm—See Her at 58
This veteran actress didn’t plan on an acting career, but one unexpected role on a popular TV show changed her life. Now, in her late fifties, she’s overcome major challenges and is living happily today. Here’s a look at her inspiring journey and how she’s doing now.
Known for playing Natalie Green on *The Facts of Life* (1979–1988), she was discovered as a teenager. Years later, health issues forced her to leave Hollywood, but now, at 58, she’s thriving once again.
In a 2013 article, the actress shared about her younger years, saying, “Have I ever mentioned performing or wanting to act? No, sir.”
She explained, “If someone had asked what I wanted to be, I’d have probably said a doctor, since I wanted to help people and had a talent for it.”
Her acting journey happened by chance. In the summer of 1979, just before ninth grade, she and some classmates were pulled from class to meet TV producers creating a new sitcom set in a girls’ school.
The producers, including actress Charlotte Rae, were casting for The Facts of Life and thought she’d be perfect for a role. Rae found her “charming and funny,” suggesting a part be created for her.
Her role on The Facts of Life made her a household name. She continued acting after the show and voiced Velma in What’s New, Scooby-Doo? for over a decade.
But in 2012, her life took a turn. One morning, she felt unusually tired during a walk. She called her friend Helen Hunt for help. After a doctor’s visit, tests revealed troubling news: she had breast cancer.
For the next five years, she endured a “siege,” facing surgeries, chemotherapy, and radiation. Known for her optimism, she admitted feeling worn down by the recurring cancer.
“I kept waiting for things to get better, but they didn’t,” she said. “I couldn’t control or fix any of it.”
Seeking peace, she left Hollywood for a quiet life in the country. She moved to a farm owned by friends Josh Kilmer-Purcell and Dr. Brent Ridge, where she found a sense of family.
The farm kept her busy, from stacking shelves to feeding chickens and even caring for goats. Her friends often saw her helping around the property, finding comfort in the farm work.
In 2017, she was declared cancer-free and expressed gratitude for her parents and close friends who supported her through it all.
With her health restored, she returned to Hollywood, reconnecting with her fans and eager for new roles. She felt ready to work again, saying, “I think I’m a good actress, and I have a lot to give.”
At 58, she remains single and child-free, having dedicated herself to her career. Though she enjoys seeing her friends’ families, she cherishes the close relationships in her life.
She’s open to finding love, but with a strong network of loved ones, she feels fulfilled, knowing she can lean on others and support them in return.
Now in her late fifties, she has embraced aging naturally. Feeling more beautiful than in her youth, she avoids cosmetic fixes, humorously singing Let It Go from Frozen when tempted.
As she nears sixty, she is living life fully, surrounded by friends, pursuing her passions, and looking forward to what’s next. Her journey shows that love, humor, and resilience can guide us through even the hardest times, making every chapter meaningful.
