Someone has to

by Suzanne on June 12, 2010

It’s a tough life. Being on the road. Traveling from place to place. Never knowing exactly where you will be from one day to the next. It’s a tough life. But someone has to do it.

It was the only place I could find the pantie hose I liked. Remember those things? Pantie hose? Do they even still make them any more?

Let’s run down to the mall and get married!” Actually, Grammy and Emily went in just to see what all the hub-bub was about.
