BE POSITIVE BUT BE REAL…how an introvert and a boomer views the world
So I was going through the Sunday paper ads this morning, as I do every weekend, and realized just how much shopping for clothes doesn’t interest me these days. I was never one to be considered a ” clothes horse”, as it were, but good sales could get my attention now and then. It could […]
Read MoreStarting this week, I will have the pleasure of working from home for 2 days now instead of just 1. I used to work on Friday only, but I will also now be here on Thursday. The second day will be contingent on me keeping my stats where they should be. I’m fine with that, […]

Read MoreSo today begins our last vacation of this summer. As always, we are at our happy place, the beach, in our oceanfront hotel. We stayed at this national chain for several reasons.
