Very early on Saturday, with my husband still in a deep slumber, I snuck out of bed, put on my thickest pair of socks and tiptoed down to the kitchen. I held my breath as I passed the guest room, fearing that even my breathing would be loud enough to be heard. The wagging [...]

Because the holiday season is already so stressful, there are some things that you should never do in December. Getting married is one of them. This of course is from first hand experience when eight years ago, three days after Christmas, I said “I do.” When I got engaged my then fiancé said “pick a [...]
