Tuesday morning at an ungodly hour, I have an appointment in Clifton Park to have my meniscus trimmed and basically tidied up. Or in. Whatever. It’s going to be a little worse for a short time, but then it should get better. I’ll be able to strengthen my body symmetrically instead of out of whack, … Continue reading Knee needs

I’m mentally packing for an upcoming weekend in Florida. Carry on only, of course.

I’m sure it’s not a coincidence that all three of those characters happen to be … Continue reading Scarier than Halloween

You believed you should stick with it, especially when you reminded yourself of your tendency, in pre-Waze … Continue reading All you can(t) leave behind
