I was waiting for Driver to finish his now almost nightly 1:30 am trip to the backyard and thinking, “This has to be part of a dog’s aging process,” when it hit me–this was not only his schedule. More times than I care to admit, I also wake up around 1:30 am to address a […]Read Post ›
I am in the middle of reading the book Time Lottery by Nancy Moser. The story line follows three people who were chosen as the first to be able to go back to an “Alternity” or to their past life. Once there, they would have the chance to make a change which will result in […]Read Post ›
