St. Croix prices

At Schooner Bay, iced
tea – 60 cents at Big Lots –
is nearly three bucks.

Sleeping on the plane

Like trying to use
your tongue as a lint brush, you
wake up fuzzy-mouthed.

Packing for vacation

separating the
non-essential from the much
needed is painful.

Christmas triage

Not enough time for
cookies, cards, decorating.
Which one do I skip?

A Christmas story

If I could shoot my
eye out with that thing, I’d just
sit and watch TV.

It’s a wonderful life

Only if you’re not
the one doing the shopping,
cleaning and baking.

See hear taste smell touch

If you had to pick,
what sense would you sacrifice?
Impossible choice.
