...enough, and I think she'd ask more than that.) Anyway, several years ago, I had a guy call and ask if I charged the same price for miniature horses as I did for regular size ones. I thought he was angling for a discount so I said, "Yes, I don't charge any extra for them." He paused, then...

I read a book, but I can't remember the name or author, that the author talked about a Life Store. Whenever she would get sick of her life, she would use her imagination to go to the "Life Store" and pick out a new life. This really resonated with me, since I was a charge nurse in a busy unit...

Gizmo, I am fried right now, but I would be glad to chat in PC with you or on a thread you may have already started. Just I need to rest my eyes a bit. What I can tell you, both with Parkinson's and Alzheimer's and with only reading some of your postings, is that due to my past I was silent...
