I've been out of grade school (Elementary or Middle or whatever they're calling it now) for a very long time. But I remember! I'm not talking about the 1.25 mile walk (each way) in snowstorms that would now be called blizzards as you might be expecting.
Not only have Departments of Education revised the classifications for schools, it seems that everything is changing. (Side Bar: Since I mentioned winter, what did they do to the windchill calculations? I've heard that a recent windchill of -22 would have been -40 when I was a kid. Getting off track, though.)
Today, I'm wondering about cursive. Yes, that's the newest word for handwriting now. And again, not only has the name changed, but schools aren't looking to teach this craft anymore either.

"You Have to Come to My House"
Relationship.
Varied connections exist between all of us. We can relate as a friend, relative, parent, acquaintance, co-worker, colleague, employee, customer, client, and more. Once upon a time, I heard a very down-to-earth analogy to help understand some of these personal relationships.
Here's how it goes. You have various people in your life. Some are Sidewalk People. Some are Porch People. Some are Living Room People. And some, very few, are Refrigerator People. Huh?
