Thank you for visiting and taking the time to comment. It means so much.

I apologize for word verification, but as soon as I changed the settings from only users with Google accounts, I started receiving a ton of spam comments...within one hour of changing the settings. The bots are on high alert apparently.

  1. Fantastic, Fabulous, Stupendous, Excelent, Awesome Mailbox. I'm so envious right now.

  4. What a big stack of books and I’ve only read one of them - “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time. It’s one I didn’t think I’d like but I was pleasantly surprised.
