Sep 7, 2018: Recently I read a really good book that I’m sure I mentioned to you in a previous post.  About cleaning out clutter (see I’m a Butterfly – March 29, 2018 post).  I have a really bad habit of opening emails and then they sit in my inbox, never to be looked at […]

July 30, 2018: It’s been a whirlwind week where I just returned from my high school’s 50th Class Reunion.  Millville High School Class of 1968 reunion had over 180 people in attendance.  The most ever for a reunion.  And while in town, I stopped see friends in South Jersey and then headed up to Toronto,
