We are having a quick break away from the city so I am sitting writing this sitting on a large comfy couch in front of a roaring log fire. And even though it is still winter, the sun is shining…a hint of warmer weather to come! So here is my Taking Stock for this month… […]
A few nights ago, I got hit with a doozy of a headache…haven’t had one of these for months, and it isn’t letting go in any hurry.
