The Wedding Is In A Week…

My sister’s wedding is one week from Saturday. They asked me today if I would give a speech about her. I have a rather poor memory and I’m sure this will strain it to the max. Of course it doesn’t help that for the past five years the family has been living just about 1000 miles away from me so I haven’t had many memories of Susanna at all! So not only do I have to try to dredge up memories, but I also need to do error-checking to make sure I’m remembering the right sister (since I do, after all, have three of them). I’m going to have to use my mom as a fact-checker!

    10 Ways To Keep Your Reading Fresh

    Most of us want to read more than we do. Many factors can interfere, whether the busyness of life, the allure of our devices, or the limitations of our budget. But I find that as often as not, we stop reading becauseF our habits have grown stale.
