Elgielene and I got to know the owners of the school pretty well. They were a former pastor and his wife and their grown children. And I remember many enjoyable conversations … Read the rest…
I’m sure, if I asked, you could tell me at least a few of those famous Mandy lyrics. Right? Because that song was pounded into your brain from all those “Top 40” stations. So, when I share these Mandy lyrics I’m sure they’ll click right away. (verse) Make me feel so good, make me feel so alive (repeat twice more) Like how coping should … Read the rest…
