Hello and happy Memorial Day weekend! Today is my first Summer Friday! TNP gives us alternating Fridays off during the summer, one of the best perks of working there. But it’s chilly and rainy, so no beach for me. I…
Christmastime in the City
One lovely day during the Season, Mom and I traveled a great distance* into Philadephia to see the sights. We saw: The Holiday show in the Comcast Center lobby, which was delightful. It would also be a great place to…
Friday (okay Saturday) Five: Usage
Happy Saturday! It’s April 5th. Even as the years are peeled off of my life’s calendar, I will always remember this day with a warm smile and a wish that all involved parties are doing well and living authentically. Yesterday…
