Whatever Gets You Through Your Life

By: Chrysa Smith 'Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony, please come around. Something is lost and needs to be found.' This is a little 'ditty' MaryFran will utter for things like finding parking places. Funny, leftover Catholic dogma doesn't really resonate as a serious prayer with me, but perhaps a plea? I giggle at it, I'll be darned if it doesn't work every time we're in the car together.

All In A Day’s Work

By: Chrysa Smith Meet Violet, DoraLee and Judy. Three tough broads. Oops! Is that politically incorrect? Well then, you should hear Dwayne's take on women in the hit musical 9 to 5.

Reading Between the Leaves

By: Chrysa Smith If you’ve been reading my ramblings for awhile, you might imagine me as a gal with a spoon in one hand and a wine glass in the other. Truth be told: you wouldn’t be completely wrong; at least from 5pm on.
