National Personal Space Day
Today is a day to celebrate all by yourself. It’s National personal space day. It could be said that there are two kinds of people in this world- huggers and non huggers. People who are huggers sometimes forget that non-huggers exist. In recent times- i.e. 2020 – the huggers were forced to become non-huggers and I’m told this was tough… Read more »
The Struggle Continues
A few years ago I wrote about my life-long struggle with wet/ stinky armpits https://beckypalmer.me/?p=2366 I’m sad to report that there hasn’t been much progress since then.

I don’t get the chance to play too often these days, but I am glad that my folks spent the money. It made band a lot… Read more »
