My brother is such a strange guy. He absolutely loves the planet, the sun and the moon, and it’s seriously all he goes on about. Why can’t he just be like everyone else’s brother and play video games until 4:00am every night? Instead of hearing him screaming in the middle of the night because he’s […]
My husband just left myself and our two daughters for a younger woman. I’m understandably devastated, especially because he works with her. They’ve been seeing each other in secret for the last year, and he has finally decided that he doesn’t want to keep her a secret anymore. I absolutely cannot forgive him and to […]

Lately, there’s been a lot of buzz on our block about the tomatoes at number 23. I can’t think of the name of the young fellow who lives there. I’m not sure we’ve even introduced ourselves by name, although I’ve had a few pleasant natters with him over the fence, mostly concerning his veggie patch. […]
