The Croc Hunter and Me…
Now I must admit that this headline is designed to capture your attention. I wasn’t actually a close personal friend of Steve Irwin. And I know that using “me” is bad grammar. And I have inferred that we are good…
Wedding weekend: all in the details
I went to a wedding this week. It was wonderful… filled with love and laughter and tears of joy and relief. Mostly my tears, I might add. And my relief. As the speeches began marking the end of my designated…
Another career, another life…
