Lucy Jensen
It started off as a nice offer from the husband. ā€œHe can come and stay with us for a while!ā€ We were talking about our friend’s 21-year-old son. They live in the U.K. I never thought it would happen, really didn’t. ā€œWhat a nice...

Window on the World Column | The Spirits of Thanksgiving Past

Lucy Jensen
Ah, those memories, like the corner of my mind. Most days we chug along, casting a glance back once in a while when Facebook reminds us of something, or if it’s Mama’s birthday and she’s no longer of the planet — or it’s sister...

Funny Papers Again Column | Looking Forward to a New Start After Spring Has Sprung

Steve Wilson
Today’s column will fall short of the normal 1,000 words. And, with the blessing of Ryan my boss at New SV Media, it will be my last column for the month of March. It is far easier to write about a subject if that subject...
