Read MoreIf I had a dime for every time I heard “You are so Lucky” “You Win Everything” , I wouldn’t have to work so hard to enter or win contests. I still consider sweepstakes a hobby that I love to work at to win. What do I like to win? I mainly enter to win […]

Read MoreSitting in the doctor’s office and hearing the doctor say to me “You Are Not Normal” was a real wake up call. Whose body is normal and follows all the medical guidelines?

Read MoreOkay, I don’t think the old cliche’ “An Apple a Day will Keep the Doctor Away” will be possible right now with the CoronaVirus. However, when it is time for my annual visit to the Doctor, I’m sure it will take place by video chat and not the usual face to face visit. My […]
Read MoreWalking on the beach this morning and looking at the collection of sea shells I realized a similarity between humans & sea shells. How could I compare people to sea shells?

Watching the Coronavirus outbreaks and quarantines over the […]

Read MoreThis should have been an Omen to run …….. The day of the closing on this house I didn’t want, I found out the night before my mother passed away.
