True Confessions

  Remember when you were five and used to play doctor. “You show me yours and I’ll show you mine?” Sure you do. Here’s a variation on the game. You tell me about yours and I’ll tell you about mine. I’ll even go first. I was a good girl. I went to an all-girls high […]

Too Many Things
to Remember….

  See my dental hygienist every 3 or maybe it’s every 6 months, return my 14 days only library book before 15 days, ask my GP if it’s too late to get a flu shot in July, make sure I have something to make for dinner before it’s dinner time. Remember family and friends’ birthdays. […]

What’s in a name?

Another blog? Why?

You probably don’t have enough time to get waxed or even read your daily horoscope, so why spend time with me? Bet you wasted more time buying another black sweater you didn’t need at TJ Maxx this week. I’m not selling anything. I have no advice on skin care, where to find a good guy, […]
