Marriage advice from the never married, or multiple married, is like writing your weight on a restroom wall. Why write your weight on a restroom wall? So, in case you fall in, they’ll know how much to take out. How much is thirty six years? No one knows.

PERSONAL ENDURANCE, THE SECRET SUPER POWER

Personal endurance for Thanksgiving, 2022? Give me more of that. At least I’m not going to the store . . . yet. And I haven’t had stuffing for breakfast . . . yet. But I still have chopping to do, chopping with a cut finger, so I’m playing hurt. In fact it hurts to write […]
