Cell phones

We live in a technological world. I get that. It seems technological advances are moving so quickly it’s mind boggling to people like me. Someone asked me several years ago what we did before we had cell phones. He was a person in his 60s and he is a person I’d consider tech savvy.

Getting ready for Valentine’s Day

Next Tuesday is Valentine’s Day. I learned many years ago what needs to be done for this day. I’ve done different things, but there are some basics that have become entrenched in my mind that are a must. One is, order the flowers early. Not just any flowers, but roses.
