Old Shirt

I’m famous for saying, “I would love to live Seattle.”  “I could live in London in a minute.  The rain doesn’t bother me.” “I don’t know why I live in this damn state.  I would move in a minute.” Today was the first sunny day we have had in Phoenix, Arizona for quite some time.…

Folded Towels

Summer is over and my children went back to school yesterday. The first day of school is always an emotional and exciting time for me. My children…yeah, they are just excited. It is a time to reflect on the past school year and summer and also look forward to all of the wonderful things ahead.…

Hanes Her Way

I really want to discuss Karl Rove and the irony that he is bowing out now. Now that he and the current administration have made a complete mockery of our country, at home and abroad. But, I will choose instead to discuss the door people at Costco… If anyone works at Costco I really would…
