Those born in the Year of the Tiger: 1998 – Have these qualities… Those born in the year of 2000 exhibit these fine traits… A tiger and a dragon…I’d hate to have gotten the two of you upset! And just in case you’ve forgotten what I am… Yup! That’s me! I say too much! So…
Ugh! It’s been crazy busy with first two days of Passover. Tonight, we have our Creativity Showcase at school. I swear, I won’t be able to take a breath of peace and quiet until Friday morning. We’re off for Good Friday this year. Things are going well and there is LOTS to be grateful for……
The Spring holidays are in full tilt now. I’m cleaning the house for Passover and getting ready to take Grandma and a few guests to Easter Brunch. One of the preparations for Passover is making this, Charoset. Pronounced Har – ro- set, Charoset is eaten during the Passover Seder to remind Jews that being a…

Today was a tough day. I do say too much sometimes. So, I had two instances in which I had to explain myself. Ugh! I do know I need to be careful what I say and what I do. So, if I seem to be less – charge forward – than I used to be,…
I know it isn’t possible to be happy every minute of every day. But we are talking overall happiness here. Surround yourself with places, people and experiences that make you happy. Your Aunt Bee is correct – you gotta choose to be happy. I guess that’s why she posted this on her Facebook page. And…
