Ye Olde Giggles
In the last few weeks we’ve attended three weddings. All three couples were so beautiful and so clearly in love; gazing into each other’s eyes with affection. It is a wonderful thing to witness. Dan and I love each other … Continue reading
Put It In Park And Step Into My Office

I’m back, after 24 hours of Yom Kippur, or Day of Atonement. You might be wondering what I have possibly done that requires atonement. Well, a lot of years I don’t make it through the whole actual fast. Sometimes I … Continue reading
My Ski Adventure Part II
So Bill still hadn’t ditched me by lunchtime, and he said that we were going to have to get on the chair lift to meet my family for lunch. My heart was filled with terror…the legendary chair lift. We pretended we … Continue reading
