What makes you laugh? My mother loved playing pranks on April Fool’s Day. She would scheme for weeks before, often smiling to her as she contemplated how she would fool us. People often wonder why I laugh so much. I really do. Sometimes, I even go into laughing […]
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? It’s actually not too much of a secret. I laugh a lot. I bring mirth and jokes to most instances. I like to be jolly. Yet, I’m also a curmudgeon. Can’t help it. I’m a New […]
