I didn’t think this Riley dog was so bad. In fact, for the first week, I thought I’d gotten me a sweet gig—easy work, and I pay back my “so-called” debt to Elfsociety. But now this mutt is scaring the *^&% out of me. First, he just was knocking over some trash cans. Problem is […]

For the rest of the holiday season, I (Wojo) won’t be writing about what Riley is doing. This is because a very special guest has been sent all the way from the North Pole by none other than the jolly guy himself, Santa Claus. Here’s the first note from Elf Joey: Wojo told me to […]

For the most part, I love my Smart Phone. It allows me to access work emails when I’m out; I can text folks instead of calling them, and, likewise, people can reach me if they need to. Oh yeah, and I can play Words with Friends and Angry Birds. I love apps, but my husband […]
