Are you partying tonight? My celebration will be small, just me and one of my sons. As in years past, we’ll toast the New Year around ten o’clock because it’s midnight somewhere. Then he’ll go back to his house & we’ll both be tucked in before the bell tolls midnight. Tomorrow I’ll make a few

Happy Monday everyone. I’m still busy unpacking and setting up my new home. Had a walk-in shower installed on Saturday and happy that one major project is finished. Having workers in the house for several days really stressed my senior cat. She was anxious and vomited several times on Saturday, but was better on Sunday.

Moving day is getting closer, so this will probably be my last blog post until after I’m settled in the new house. During my sorting and packing I’ve come across a few of my newspaper columns that I wrote for many years when my husband and I were raising our family. The kids were young

The following is an excerpt from my humorous memoir, A Dead Tomato Plant and a Paycheck. The book is a collection of the humor columns I used to write for the Plano Star Courier, a suburb of Dallas. A number of readers had suggested I put them together in a book, and a number of years later
