Let me say, first off, that people mean well. But sometimes the response to a person’s concerns doesn’t sit well. I don’t think people have been taught how to handle talking to someone faced with a difficult situation. Or they feel uncomfortable when faced with something hard. I have just recently been scheduled for a …
I beat breast cancer once three years ago. The tumor was found in my left breast and it was pretty small, at the time. The surgeon couldn’t even feel it. But it was found during my yearly mammogram. The diagnosis was made one week before my marriage to my second husband. The man of my …
I have had cats all my life. I love their independence, their playfulness, their personalities and how easy they are to train. Ooops. Well, not really.

I just do not understand how we are sending our recycling goods to China when it can all be done very well here. Canadians have recycling plants and are employing people with special needs to sort the items. Many …
Really people? Or just those of you who think it is your right to NOT wear a mask. Why is this even up for debate? It is a sad situation when some people are just thinking of themselves. What kind of a society has America become? Stopping the spread of any infectious disease is so …
