Welcome to the crazy taco edition of the Pulse!
The Mayos love some tacos, y fajitas, chimichangas, burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, pupusas and empanadas. That’s one of our love languages.
A happy anniversary to my parents, who were, in fact, married on a Cinco de Mayo long ago, and who also ended up having five children—the cinco Mayos! Fan fact.

Last month, we did get to observe the lunar eclipse. Although skies were cloudy, in a way it was very visually appealing to see the action peek through the clouds in the sky. It wasn’t quite as epic as the totality of 2017, but quite the celestial event.
Otherwise, life has included a bunch of squats, some GxK action, a little hide and seek, and some love and investment put into the Pulsemobile; the old girl has a new starter and spark plugs and has been tuned up—may she deliver you many more copies of the Pulse over the years.
We got through March Madness with Connecticut ultimately making a repeat championship run, further establishing its basketball program as one of the top college programs of them all. The Preds made it to the playoffs, got themselves in a good position, but went down 3 games to 1 after failing to win either of their first two games in Smashville, a disappointing showing for the Preds fans.
Now may be a great time to get a good deal on that Henry jersey for the Titans fans.
Little Beck got much of his long golden locks cut off recently; now he’s rockin’ the summer style.
Shewww . . . time management is tough at times, grinding away, keeping the business rolling and the groceries flowing, surviving and thriving, while still trying to spend a little time with kids, trim one’s fingernails, wash the dishes and take a walk.
Life is good though!
Jr. and I have a little camping excursion lined up at Land Between the Lakes this first weekend of May—headed to the forest!
Ask me about the great nationwide business-to-business bartering network that the Pulse is a part of. Our small business has definitely had a good experience with Itex.
A happy happy Mother’s Day month to Sarah, the dear mother of my two boys, and the queen mother of the Pulse. And a happy Mother’s Day to my own wonderful mother.
The Pulse welcomes Classy Cactus, Alexa’s Cleaning and The Public House to our pages.
It is wonderful to know all of you. I get to communicate with so many interesting folks. I really make an effort to keep in touch with everyone, and keep conversations and relationships going, but there are many of them that I have let lapse, whether from 24 hours ago, or 24 years ago.
Keep in touch. It means a lot that so many want to be involved in the Pulse and in my life.
5 p.m. the third Thursday of the month at Champy’s Chicken on Broad Street is a good time to catch me if we are struggling to connect otherwise.
Until next time, the Pulse continues to celebrate the creative individuals and hard working entrepreneurs of the Murfreesboro area.
