Can you believe it?! 100 BLOG POSTS! That's right, the Chick and Alice blogs have reached number 100. In this one we thought we would run some questions by the staff.

Not every story starts with courage, sometimes it starts with exhaustion. Pete gets real about depression, marriage, meds, and the messy work of staying alive and learning to heal. It's not easy, but can be done.

What happens when a child of the ’60s lets AI describe her? Chick found that ChatGPT’s words weren’t far off, just a little more poetic. It’s a ride through nostalgia, freedom, and rediscovery of what truly fuels her soul.

“Set boundaries so strong that even the ancestors feel them.” Alice’s latest post hits hard—about pain, strength, and refusing to surrender. Read it, feel it, live it.

A girl in a pink jacket sank in a dream. Decades later, Alice rose as a dragon. That’s how healing looks, with all the myth, fire, truth, and forgiveness woven into one story. She found her map. You can too.

Chick’s takeaway is simple: share in other people’s happiness. Celebrate small wins, swap a joke in the parking lot, and let connection soften the hard days. That’s how life becomes precious, and priceless.
