My Time is Yours

Summer has been a whirl wind! We spent 2 weeks in Italy, visited San Gimignano, Cinque Terre and Florence. San G was our favorite. The food and wine was absolutely amazing. The thing that I can definitely get used to is the fact that there is no "tipping," sometimes a per person surcharge but no 15-25% tipping standard. Cinque Terre is exactly how it is in the pictures, quaint and charming (after the day trippers leave). What can you say about Florence, we always love Florence.

Of course, after 1 day of coming home, my son was messing around at the beach trying to do a back flip and gets a mild concussion...

Then I found out who my biological, actually he found me...I have 20 new aunts and uncles, over 40 cousins and most of them are in Vegas! Will share more in depth about this soon.

We love Italy. Of course having both my parents born there may have something to do with it!
Please count me in for another of your generous karmas and Gracie!

Italy is on our 'soon to visit' list, probably in '26

I've had a couple rounds of 'new family' in the past 20 years, an interesting experience.

Please count me in & thanks for the chance!

Congratulations on the new found additions to your family! I hope your son recovers quickly and with no long term impacts from his concussion.

Please consider me for this generous Karma. And as always thank you for your generosity!




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
