Frustrations abound . . . mostly because the ( Read more... )

I remember a friend telling me NOT to move into a Senior Apartment building (affectionately referred to as "Geezer Barracks") because the old biddies living there have nothing better to do than gossip about their neighbors, start malicious rumors and generally make life miserable for their targets.

It either goes away as I ( Read more... )
