I love words. And animals. Photography and fedoras. Welcome. And stay awhile.

    1. I had a really long reply that I tried to post, and it wouldn’t
      go, Rob. WordPress is giving me issues today. Suffice to say finding cash on the ground is exhilarating. And I agree with you about Paris, though I have yet to go.

    1. Thanks! 😊
      I recently had to rent an Audi while my car was in the shop, and I wrote a little piece about it. I’ll link it here. I had the car for two weeks and as time went on, I became more annoyed as I drove it. The engine turning off at stoplights and then back on again when the accelerator is pressed is extremely annoying. I could never figure out how to operate anything, and it was a gas guzzler. A very high octane, gas guzzler. Lol. In the end, I got my car back and I hugged her. 😊

      2. I’m glad! 😊
        But I seriously doubt you want me to be a professional test car driver. I would never get anywhere! Luckily the Audi had its own folding mirrors. But I couldn’t figure out how to get the gas door open when I needed to refill it to take it back to enterprise. I asked for help, and by the time the attendant showed up, I had figured it out. But that took 10 minutes! Guess how you open it? You push it, and it pops open. 🤭

  13. From the essentials like toothpaste and clean water to the comforts of shelter and food, each item is a reminder of the privileges we often take for granted. And your love for stationery products? Totally relatable! There’s something special about a fresh notebook and a new pen waiting to capture thoughts and ideas. -ArConsultings.org

    1. Yep, toothpaste. The enamel on my teeth doesn’t want to stay on my teeth, so the fluoride in the toothpaste helps me keep my enamel, and therefore, my teeth. Hence, its early placement on the list.🙂
