Just us!  Robin, Mary, and I had our morning coffee and chatted for a while before getting to work.  Mary and Robin headed to the office so Mary could get her 1099s downloaded with Robin’s help.  I headed to the … Continue reading →

Posted on Sunday, February 1, 2026 by Paul

I woke up giggling because of yesterday’s situation.  OK, it is 2:30 pm, and Mary has been sitting watching TV and doing her needlepoint for quite a while.  As a dutiful husband, I stepped out of the 85-degree heat to … Continue reading →
