By the time you receive this, I’ll be returning from a trip to the mountains. That’s right, I’m creating space.
For Rita and I, it’s borderline “past due.”
But, it’s happening. Flights are booked and a rental car reserved.
The mountain house sits at an elevation of 10,000 feet on 4 acres, 4 miles outside the small town of Fair Play, Colorado, west of Colorado Springs.
It’s a spacious place…
“I’m not going to change my mind,” the claim’s agent repeated. “We deny the claim.”
Donna shoved her office door almost closed as she raised her voice, “How can you do that?”
“No police report was filed. A witness disputed the original account.”
“But she admitted she was on her cell phone.”
“She wasn’t on her phone.”
Donna’s voice pierced the walls ricocheting down the hall.
She had lost…
Don’t say, “I’m toning my body,” to a true bodybuilder. Even if they don’t use words, the condescending looks on their face will scream lack of respect. Bodybuilders build their body for a lot of reasons. But building muscle is the focus, not toning.
I’m not a bodybuilder. (Anyone who’s met me is nodding vigorously). I don’t even qualify for body toning. (More vigorous nodding). I probably…
Growing pains are often experienced by children and teenagers supposedly when they are growing fast. According to the Mayo Clinic …
Growing pains tend to affect both legs and occur at night. In many instances, growing pains will wake a child from sleep. The term “growing pains” may be a misnomer because there’s no evidence that growth hurts.
While there may be “no evidence that growth hurts” in…
The Grande is a platter on Abuelo’s menu. It’s promoted as “The ultimate combination!” Seriously. Three enchiladas, a chile relleno, a tamale, crispy beef taco, and guacamole. (I recommend substituting veggies for the rice and beans and a tamale for the chile relleno.)
While waiting for The Grande to be created, warm chips and salsa become the foundation for this “small” platter. To avoid feeling stuffed…
It’s a simple question. People ask it a lot at this time of the year: “Have you had your flu shot?”
“No, I think it made me sick, last year.”
“I’m healthy, no need to be vaccinated.”
“Seriously, the flu is just a cold gone bad.”
“I got one last year, I’m covered.”
These are only a few of the myths attached to the flu shot, according to…
Described as a “large, hairy, bipedal humanoid” it’s better known as Bigfoot. The story is folklore, misidentification, and hoax. Scientists consider the creature’s existence absurd; there just isn’t any physical evidence. Woodsmen and campers you can breathe easy.
Still, articles like this appear, “What’s The Most Absurd Big Foot Photo You’ve Ever Seen?” It seems John Rodriguez, a retired electrician, is stuck trying to prop up…
