I had a chance to visit Miami Beach over Labor Day weekend and stayed at the lovely Confidante Hotel. The onsite restaurant is called Bird & Bone and it’s claim to fame is having the best chicken in Miami.

I know that seems strange but The Old Man has requested to keep some of his freedom and live alone for a … Continue reading Adventures with The Old Man: The Old Man gets a Smart Phone
For many years music has been a major part of my life. It has always been something that moves me. The key part to this is I can listen to many different genres of music and due to my natural indecisive nature I don’t actually have a favorite. Each type of music that I listen to moves me in a different way. Let me give … Continue reading Music Moments with Misstakenid
The Old Man (affectionate term for my father) was invited to his first amputee picnic, so you know what that means. We were going no matter what!
