In July I took 5 of my grandsons, my grown son and his daughter and took off to Cape Cod for a week. We stuffed ourselves into 2 tents, sat around the campfire and stuffed ourselves with hot dogs, corn on the cob and marshmallows, swam, went on a 2 hour Cape Cod Canal cruise,took some beautiful pictures, and made som beautiful memories. We WILL be going back again next year!

In May I learned my landlord had lost the house to foreclosure. All the tenants were given until July 1 to move! I almost had a nervous breakdown thinking about it. After living there 22 years! Imagine the clutter, err I mean collections of good stuff! Well I found another apartment nearby, gave away and disposed of a LOT of stuff I was keeping “just in case” and ended up in a bigger, cheaper, more airy and bright apartment that I adore! Everything happens for a reason.
My ex returned to his old ways and for no reason, demanded that my son and I return his plates and cancel the insurance, even though we paid it in full for the year. So I’m back to walking, and my son is begging rides to and from work. Some people never change. But he’ll see . What goes around comes around. It’s all Karma, and he’ll get his.
