    We’ve been watching the numbers of COVID-19 cases daily on worldometer. Obsessively, if you will. I like to look because my guy is kind of a math nerd and he likes to predict the growth of the disease in the US. I like to see if he’s right or wrong. For the most part, he’s Read more

    I’ve always been a dog person. Dogs are just my kind of people. They are loyal. They listen. They don’t judge. They don’t even care what your breath smells like. They still want to kiss you.
