So, it was with a bit of a harrumph and more than a bit of irritation that I signed up for a driver’s refresher course. Not because I don’t enjoy learning, or in this case re-learning, but it did mean I was old enough to qualify for a 10% insurance discount once I completed the eight-hour class. I still haven’t… Read More
Oops! UPS!
So I order a few things. An Amazon book here, a box of vitamins there. No biggie, right? However, my husband has accused me—incorrectly I might add—of having the hots for our UPS driver.  He claims that is why I order as many UPS-able items as possible.

Lilac Fever
I swear God invented lilacs as the cure for tattered souls. Our late spring had me wondering if my favorite white lilac would bloom by July given it’s slowly budding branches. My mom’s birthday was this past Saturday, and I usually bring a bouquet of lilacs when I visit her grave. They were her favorite flower, although she was not… Read More
