100 marathons in 100 days
Larry Grogin refuses to allow Parkinson’s disease to have the last word in his life. That’s why he has taken on a cross-country trek — much of it on foot — to not only raise awareness for neurological diseases and funds to fight them, but hope for those who live with such diseases ...
HINTS FROM HELOISE: Keep mice away with lavender
DEAR HELOISE: Using a sealed bin helps to keep mice out, but it doesn’t always work. The smell of birdseed can get through plastic, and mice are persistent. What finally did the trick for me was putting a lavender room freshener inside the bin, tucked in a corner away from the seed bag.

It built slowly over the years, like a snowball rolling downhill, growing larger and heavier until it now seems to fill every corner of our home. I always believed I was being a good wife and partner. I raised our children, kept the books, did the laundry, cooked the meals, handled the shopping, managed the house, worked full time for many years and then part time, and carried most of the invisible load that keeps a family running. My husband worked full time and ...
