This year (2018) has not been the easiest of five months (is it only that much?). I didn’t realize it until I randomly started listing the things that have happened specifically in my life this year, and mostly it’s not positive.

Summer is never long enough
At least, at this moment, I’m definitely feeling like summer just decided to be shorter than it was when I was a kid. I could have used an extra month.

Some of those binders are actually photo albums (what an archaic idea), … Continue reading

Random Things that Make Me Happy – 1

Half the reason they come to see me is because of Margie. They miss … Continue reading
