One-third of my life has been spent as a spouse caregiver. I discovered this trivia while playing with a calculator on this last day of my 57th year.
Do I have any pearls of wisdom to offer? Yes, never stop building snowmen!
With 3 inches of snow for an early birthday present it was time to realign the feng shui of kitsch.
