  3. I watch as houseless people traverse our city streets ... hoping their shoes are sturdy, that their feet are dry, that they have warm socks. I have multiple bags of 'goodies' in my auto trunk stocked with gloves, socks, hats. When I see someone in need, I stop and I offer. Every little bit helps.

  9. It is amazing how wise our grandmothers were, though we didnt realize it at the time. All of those old sayings come back to me now.
