My husband is a tough man to buy gifts for. This isn’t because he’s picky about them. He just doesn’t really want for much. Seriously. It’s probably a good thing, as I’m the opposite. I can see a catalog and think, “Wow—this would look great in the living room” or “I would love to have […]

In our society, the dawning of the New Year gives us a clean slate. And after the hell known as 2020, boy, do we need one. We can begin fresh. It’s also the time when many of us make resolutions that have bitten the dust by February 1, but that’s besides the point. I’ve decided […]

Ah, holiday shopping. While fun for some, for others it’s the bane of their existence. I fall somewhere in between. If I’m shopping early, it’s fun. If it’s late, and I’m rushing like a dog that’s got the “zoomies,” it’s not fun. In fact, I’d rather just have the zoomies and run around my house […]
