We've chosen not to have any advertising on our blog - okay, except Marcia's new book!! - but we do support the idea of Global Giving.

Hi Folks:

Hello Dear Ones!

Ever have a day when your mind wanders when you should be focusing? I’ve been sitting here at the computer for a few hours now. Rather than writing this post, I’ve been playing scrabble games with my sisters on Facebook. When I had done all 23 [...]
