What if They Find Out?

I’ve been having nightmares recently. They vary in content and level of scariness. There doesn’t seem to be any one consistent theme. Nor can I detect that one thing that I’m doing during the hours preceding bedtime that might be causing me to have these scary dreams.

This is the Problem with Holidays!

The only reason I’m posting this blog post is because I needed a few minutes for my hands to dry out from prune status. I used to clean the house to music, but lately I find… Read More
