Living with an Early-onset Dementia Diagnosis
What a GREAT weekend! It was as HOT as blazes, but we had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our visitors! I hope they weren’t completely worn out when they left this morning.
I got home from work right before his brother T and a family friend D arrived Friday and M had done a fabulous job getting the house ready Continue reading “Flea Markets Aren’t Just for Fleas”
I had the most amazing evening last night. I had dinner with a friend at her house and she is one of the luckiest people I know. Her back door opens onto a lake Continue reading “Is Tequila Sunset a Thing?”
