Text Your Friends, Family and Now Your Appliances!
I know I’m not alone (in the 50+ age group) when I say that I wasn’t one of the first to text other people on my phone. Actually, I was quite the hold out, and still am, when it comes to our changing technology. I had a flip phone when most people had iPhones. I began to text years after most people did.

If You Like Wine, Choose Red and Protect Your Body
I like to drink a glass of wine every now and then, and I typically don't care if it's red, blush, white or whatever. This past Memorial Day I drank several different wines because I enjoy wine!
