Be Prepared
Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – May 19, 2004 – I was once a Girl Guide. I was never a Brownie, so I missed the all important “flying up”, over the magic toadstool, or maybe it was a mushroom, into the ranks of Girl Guidedom.

Little Old Ladies
Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – May 16, 2004 – There was a time, not so long ago, when I felt very removed from the concept of “Little Old Ladydom” – however as my fifties reach their mid-point, I realize it’s closer than I think.
