My grandmother always said that what you do on New Year’s day is what you’ll be doing all year. When I think of that now, I wonder how many people will be having hangovers all year. Or staying up late to watch television. Or sleeping half the day because they were up late. Okay, that …
Today in the US is Thanksgiving. It’s a day when it’s traditional to consider what we’re thankful for. Today I’m thankful for my nice, little apartment.

I read recently where approximately 10% of American families rent storage facilities to keep things they don’t need, don’t use, but can’t bring themselves to get rid of.
