It’s a wonderful day in Philadelphia. I didn’t spend much time looking for an apartment in this city of so much to do. I walk down the street and people actually smile at strangers. Me! I find being next to the train station and hearing the trains pass is all right. I didn’t know until [...]
I think I have the funk! You know what I am talking about when the season changes from glorious fall to yucky winter. Everyone around me seems to have had it, had it, or is getting it.
I keep blaming it on allergies but I know it’s more than that. My head is killing me, sinuses [...]

Before Sebastian was born I thought I already had a full [...]

Two days later we’re in Philly. It’s a happy day for Pauline because she can’t wait to get her car away from the tow dolly, and be end with that experience. We learned a valuable lesson, you can’t master backing up with a tow dolly attached to a truck in one day. And we needed [...]
