Some women wear jewelry or fine clothing, I wear hats. Most of the time I color coordinate as best as I can. Which I wear depends on my mood as well. I imagine it's very similar to how some women choose their scarves and pins. I have a plethora of caps. Some fancy, some simple, Some just plain classy. My collection over the years has grown and I should probably cull some of the hats from my Continue Reading
Culture War and No Pickles
We have a family friend who hates pickles. They stain everything they touch with their taste. Even if the waiter takes them off the plate, our friend can still tell and sends his burger or sandwich back.

Easier to make friends when you have friends. Years ago I wanted to make some friends of my own, not just share my Dad's friends. So I ended up going to a Bible study that was at a coffee house. It was a weekly thing Continue Reading

My mom is the one who put the idea in my head to write. My mom is pretty smart and used to be my dad’s writing partner. She spells really well and knows grammar in and out.
