• My Day in Court

  Today is my court appearance for traffic violation. I am a bit nervous not knowing what to expect. Do I get fined $232.00 or something worse? Two months ago, I got stopped by a cop on my way to take my husband to his kidney doctor. I saw a cop on my left waiting for…

    It’s been raining on and off everyday for too long. The ground is so soaked already. My roses are drowning. This is the view in front of my townhouse everyday.     This is what you can see through the window in back.     Remember the nursery rhyme: Rain. Rain. Go Away. Come…

• Welcome Spring, A Time of Renewal

      I love living in the South where spring comes early. While NY where I came from is still having freezing weather and snow storm is still the norm in March, here in Charleston, the days are getting longer and warm air is creeping in. As I walk the dog this morning, I heard…
