Waked this morning with the headache from hell after NO party last night, which is not fair at all. I still have a bit, and a nagging post-nasal drip cough. Xyrtec is good, but not that great. Benedryl plus 2 Sudafed seems a better combo for me—they used to sell...

Well, we saved a little because our installer said he’d deduct some if WE went down to city hall and got the permit, which we did, which was kind of interesting, and they were very nice to us. Nobody ever mentioned however that there is a part B of the process,...

Pond’s frozen. Our friend Joan is out gardening. Spring fever is starting to hit. We’re meeting Joan for lunch today if she’s not standing out in her garden as a stiff and frosty garden elf. Time, however, to get out and get some stuff. If we...
