Two years since my dad died. The anniversary was the 9th. It amazes me how much has changed since that fateful day. And even more major, monumental changes are on the way. Change is good. I need change. I’ve been lucky to have had an extended childhood. I lived at home with my parents until [...]

Jawbone Up- It tracks your movement and sleep patterns. Yes, I can get even more self-involved than I already am. Dang it– there was another really cool gadget I found that looked very tasty. Forgotten. Maybe I’ll remember it…

We survived Hurricane Sandy. There was a lot of wind and a lot of rain. Neighbors had issues with trees down and stuff but my mom and I were spared with very little damage. I have a stain on my ceiling from a leak that I have to tell my HOA about and the trunk [...]
