Believe it… Or not (I don’t)

Last night was Bridge Night.  As it’s my only somewhat regular night out of the house, I try my best not to miss it.  I’m not a very good player (too many rules), but I go for the social outlet.  And the beer and wine.  (Except for last night – I was the D.D.) After [...]

This is what I got for my 14th Anniversary: I was SO EXCITED!!!  Not only do I love it (and, well, anything Apple), but my husband came up with it ALL ON HIS OWN!  I was shocked, surprised, thrilled. I got this, because I have this: And, because I have him, I have these: Thank [...]
