I finally did it. This year I joined the 41% of Boomers who prefer to shop online. For the first time, I have finally bought into the idea of online shopping. I used to worry that my stuff would get lost in shipping or end up...
As I am watching a wicked northeaster blow through southern Ohio, I am in “Countdown to Thanksgiving” mode. Operation Thanksgiving is underway…and for some unknown reason I decided to start by polishing the silver. I have been struggling with this ridiculous silver tray for an hour...
