A Marriage
Recently, my husband and I stood up for two friends that decided to wed. I am thrilled for them since, although in different scenarios, they both have been to hell and back. One suffered the tragic loss of a companion after 30 years together. The other went through a relationship with a partner who suffered […]
Getting Together with the Girls
The next thing I declare as very important in the ‘Year of You,’ is not forgetting to do things for yourself. Even though you may be caretaker, in charge in some way of a sick child (or even a family member who is an adult), you cannot forget about yourself. I have often blogged about […]
