Grateful for Rain
The song lied. It does rain in Southern California. Last night, it rained hard. Our morning stroll along the bay at 6:30 this morning was cool and cloud-covered. Puddles of water along the edge of the road were evidence of how much rain fell. Benches covered with droplets of water along the walking path were…

MFP
Who are your current most favorite people? I try not to have favorites. But, if I do, they know who they are! LOL! 😉 All of our daughters think they are the favorite. All of our grandchildren think they are the favorite. Wisdom has taught us well.

Let Your Money Work For You
Years ago, my husband and I received a lump sum of money that, if we had invested, would be worth a lot of money today. I could probably retire early! But, no. We were young and ridiculously irresponsible. We bought a car. Not a good investment. Cars depreciate. Did you know that, today, you can…

Hobby? Too Much of a Good Thing? Or Escape From Reality?
Geocaching is something new to me that I only recently learned about. My daughter and son-in-law found one when out hiking an easy trail while out camping near a lake last year. This week, a friend was talking about her husband and that he likes to hunt for geocaches. He has been involved with this…
