We’re nearing the end of the legislative session.
A good part of last Tuesday’s city council meeting was not normal.
Every Mother's Day, I have a terrible time finding a card that remotely reflects the relationship I have with my mother.
When Christine Blasey Ford accused Brett Kavanaugh, President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, of sexual assault, Joe Biden told reporters: "For a woman to come forward in the glaring lights of focus, nationally, you've got to start off with the presumption that at least the essence of what she's talking about is real – whether or not she forgets facts, whether or not it's been made worse or better over time."
DEAR HARRIETTE: I have contributed to a number of charities over the years. I feel good about that, because I want to support causes that I believe in. But I am uncertain as to what I can give right now that I have been laid off from my job. I am single, and I live on my own. I have no idea when I will get another job. I feel horrible that I cannot be generous right now, but I worry that if I continue to pledge to the 10 charities that I normally give money to that I won’t have enough for myself. What should I do? — Dry Well
DEAR HARRIETTE: Two of my friends have been at a standoff for years, and I’m sick of it. I told each of them that I think it’s time to resolve their disagreement. Whatever they do, I don’t want to have to listen to them talking about each other’s faults anymore. It’s like they are stuck in the past, back when they hurt each other’s feelings, and they can’t let go of that.
