Do you watch Instagram stories?  We had two of the girls over for one of their birthdays which we celebrated on Halloween.  Which meant we got to see four of the grandsons, Titus, Oliver, Atlas, and Jack.  The other grandson, Archer (Archie), lives 2 1/2 hours away and I had a date to go […]

The Springfield Ohio Extravaganza is the best antique flea market on the face of the planet… I am not kidding.  I started attending this flea market YEARS ago when I was probably in my 20s.  When Deb popped into my life, I introduced her to it and she feels the same.  There are over 2,000 […]
