Almanac Attack

I admit it. I have become the slightly wacko, but harmless uncle that no one wants to be trapped with at family functions. How have I come to this low state? I hold the almanac to blame. Over the years this little book with the hole punched in the upper left hand corner has wheedled its way into my life until it occupies a spot somewhere between guilty pleasure and addiction.

Here is one of the stories that was sent to me and I hope this helps other women who have gone through this loss.

Introduction: I had gotten married in August 1988, and it was almost… Continue
