Iâm hoping others who I trust and posted thoughts will unknowingly help a lot.

December 14, 2015 The one week mark It’s now a week since the bathroom construction started. It would’ve been done by now if BathFitter had ordered the right bath tub, or…

June 8, 2015 From the Tri-Cities to the Tri-States It’s me again. I have to write more often. It doesn’t have to be a book. Saving stuff up is too time-consuming, anyway. Iâd…
