We got married right out of high school and have been together ever since. Most things we have done together and we prefer it that way. We worked together at a private club and ran a very successful martial arts program for 15 years. Now we are trying our hand at writing books. Oh, did I mention the kids and grandkids? And there is a donkey, goat and cat too!

My cloud storage is full

I have been getting plenty of trash in my email inbox. Some of the ones I find annoying are the ones that promise me a free something-or-another if I fill out a survey for some service I recently used. So I go and fill it thinking it is legit and when I get to the end they inform me that I just need to pay for the postage. This infuriates me for two reasons.
