I’ve said this before on several occasions that Fall or Autumn is my favorite time of year. Like many others, we are happy to welcome cooler temperatures and the colors of late summer, giving way to the vibrant, but dying colors that come from the changing season. Those early colors soon become leaves on the…
Throughout our lives, we come to many crossroads having to make decisions on which path we’ll take. These decisions are based on one single factor although we make lists of pros and cons, it really comes down to risk tolerance. We decide whether the risk factor fits into our current assessment of life. Most of…
A few weeks ago, from out of the blue, I contracted double pneumonia. No lead in symptoms other than maybe a little drainage, but I went from feeling pretty good to cold chills in an hours’ time. The next day, I had a teledoc appointment and was prescribed an antibiotic for a possible sinus infection….

I’m not sure, but as much as I hate a political party trying to banish history and make history sanitized in our schools, we have a cultural change…
I was just listening to the news this morning and am struck by the where this country has gotten. A country where elected congressional people have to have some charter of agreement that they are signing to say they will accept the results of the 2024 election. What?
