Doctor’s Appointment

Oh, my! I hate waking up after the drugs wore off and seeing that I spelled treat wrong in that last post. It was the drugs . . ok? Typos and spelling errors make me break out in hives and rashes! Not really. And, did I mention that “Miss Disorganized” has every card in her wallet [...]

One of the first things I usually do when I arrive at mom and dad’s is head for Jo’s Party House. It was hard to believe I’d been here 6 days and had not managed to get by there. I had been just down the street from them but kept forgetting to go by. When [...]

I do have a sister, though I’m not sure we’re truly related.
