Surviving, thriving and celebrating August has always been my favorite month. What I love most about this month is that, throughout the entire northern hemisphere, August is always August everywhere.
No matter where one lives or wherever one travels this time of year, one always knows what to pack. August also just happens to be the month in which I met my husband, the love of my life.
In fact, on Aug. 18, he and I will have been together for 30 years … Whoa! Where did it go? How did we become AARP members? I don’t feel one bit different than when I was 25.
How cruel a joke is that? Even for Straightsville, 30 years together is an impressive milestone. In Gayville, it’s practically a miracle.
