Diddly Squat! That’s What We Did Today!!!
This morning, we looked at the calendar, and it was empty, as nothing was planned. We went to our office, read our mail, and then decided to do precisely that—diddly squat. We wandered through the house, doing little things that … Continue reading

Exercise Day!!
At either 4:00 am or 5:00 am, Scout got fired! He pawed my bed and asked to go out. OK, I can accept one interruption because I had to “go out” also. Back in bed, I went, chilled to the … Continue reading
