What makes us who we are
•
When I got out of the Army, I joined the National Guard in Mass because they offered free tuition for college. I took CLEP tests and skipped the first two years of college, starting as a junior. As my coursework came to an end I needed an internship and didn’t…

It’s been a while.
•
More than a hot minute. Many, many months. Lots going on and redirecting my focus, but as part of my new mental floss, I plan to be more communicative. Watch this space. #HoneyRand #I’mbaaaaack #Checkyousoon

Death and Stickers
•
When Jim died, and I was transferring all the insurance to my name, I got sticker shock. Three cars. A dual-engine Tesla, a Mercedes AMG convertible and a Subaru Outback. Talking to the insurance guy, I said, “I don’t drive my car 9000 miles a year; I can’t possibly do…

Was Your Ex a Cockroach?
•
Most of us have been #coupled for some time or respectfully #uncoupled for a while. Still, I can remember a time when I would have taken advantage of a program like this. It’s right up my alley. Do something good, something fun, and have your say at the same time.…
