It has been quite a while since I last posted any articles, so long that it feels foreign to me.  I was very busy going back and forth to my mother's care home.  I would sit with her for hours every day.  But that came to an end with my mother's passing, age 88, on 04 February 2017 from bronchial  pneumonia.  I have a lot to do now with her estate.  But most of what I need to do is not urgent.  I wanted to get back to posting but I have been just too tired this past month.  I did however save a few links that I thought were interesting, and some humourous.<\/span><\/p>\n

The men’s magazine trolls the president BIGLY with advice on how to solve his slouchy suits, Scotch-taped ties<\/a> and wrinkled pants. They even offer tailoring tips to make his hands look bigger.<\/p>\n
