You’re Gonna Need Shades!
I was heading to the outside garage at our home that is not attached to our house. It is the shelter for two vehicles, the lawn mower and some Christmas decorations along with one side that is finished and serves as our home offices. As I stepped from my house into...
It Means A Lot To Always Remember…
I had a wise man tell me 25 years ago at a funeral of a friend "it's not only now those left behind need you but they will also need you 6 months or 2 years from now." I've never forgotten that. It's natural that after a while, people go back to their everyday...
Sneaky Little Devil.
