: About Me

I am the mom of three children and grandmother of five. My oldest son is currently serving in the Marines, my daughter is a former soldier and my youngest son is the father of twin boys. I live in the desert southwest and I work in advertising research. My interests include graphic design, writing, gardening, fashion design, home decorating and photography.

At the present time, I write two blogs, Life's Like a Box of Chocolates and Juliannah by Design. Both are mainly focused on the adventures that make up my life with a bit more emphasis on what it is like to be a military mom on ‘Chocolates.’

I started writing as a young girl by keeping journals. When I went to college in my mid-thirties I took writing classes and developed an even greater love for the written word. I went on to graduate with honors during 2004 with an Associate in Applied Science in Communication Graphics. During this time I fashioned a website where I published creative stories and offered website design sets. I went on to design professional brochures, logos and a cookbook cover for my current employer.

Today, along with my personal blogs, I write for Helium and I am pleased to be included in the Helium Custom Project System, where since beginning in November of 2010, I have submitted over one hundred articles that were approved for publication. I plan to continue to turn out quality work for Helium and their clients.
I currently am enjoying writing professionally and hope to continue this endeavor long into the future.

Relationships & Family > Cheating Spouses & Affairs Should you confess your affair to your spouse?

6 of 10

Infidelity undoubtedly hurts everyone involved. When couples marry, they make a promise of faithfulness to each other. Unfortunately, infidelity does occur. Whatever the reason, it is still wrong. Should a person tell their husband or wife if an indiscretion occurred? That depends on the situation. A one-time event, even though it is not right, is probably better off left alone. Even if there has been an affair with more than one encounter sometimes, it is better not to tell. For example, maybe the couple had been having trouble in the marriage and had come to the conclusion they still wan...
