    About this ebook

    You can find humor in just about anything.  Especially if you have ever been a child, adult, or some other form.   Life's Little Stories is a collection of short stories taken from my real life experiences as a mother and wife.  If these stories put a smile on your face, then I have served my purpose.  Enjoy life and don't forget to share a laugh or two along the way.  Your body and mind will thank you.

    Life is Short, so Smile While You Still have Teeth.

      Supportive Husband

      Sep 12, 2023

      There were less intimate places available, so it was odd when a woman took the seat directly facing mine across the subway aisle. I looked up from my book and right back down: a couple of months before, we’d gone home together. She had a Southern acc

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go
