Just a few thoughts I feel worthy of jotting down!
A good, sweet man passed away this morning – James Epps. James was a security guard for many years at Wyeth. He was there for as long as I can remember – I’m not sure if he was there before me or came just… Continue Reading “Farewell, James Epps”
My last post was about the joy that a good cry brings. Now, I think I’ll give smiling some equal time. And, yes, the title is a quote from Steel Magnolias – Truvie, played by Dolly Parton, said it in the movie that always brings a… Continue Reading “Smile – it inceases your face value!”
