The Nostalgic Nose: 5 Ways to Be a Loser

Once a month, I meet with my Bunco* group. We have a meal – usually accompanied by a drink or two - followed by a mindless game of dice with the tantalizing possibility of prizes.

The Scent of a Memory… Working Through Anxiety with Lavender Essential Oil

I’m sitting in my recliner today with Tosh on my lap on what is my first real day “off” since semi-retiring a couple of weeks ago.

The Scent of a Memory… Early-Morning Road Trip
