Worth the Wait
Sunday night I remembered I needed to buy a clear, plastic bag/purse for an upcoming event we’ll be attending this week. I needed the purse rushed to me as we are leaving town today. Amazon kept their one-day-delivery promise. It was worth the wait! I barely had to wait at all! The Waiting Game is…

I’m so visual that I needed technicolor and visual characters to help me grasp it. So, I rented the 2019 animated version on Amazon…
