On A Bipolar Journey with Mom, Part 1

She is back on meds, but they take time to work because they have to be given to elderly patients very gradually. While I try to work remotely, she talks for hours on end to the white Amazon Echo in the kitchen, believing it is connecting her to a detective who worked on Grandma’s missing person case. She says she is in love with him, and he will be her fourth husband.

We evolved in close-knit communities that hunted together, gathered together, played together, prayed together, told stories together, and made music together. Today, most of us see more people every day on a screen of some kind than we meet in real life.

5 Ways to Teach Your Kids About Money

When they're elementary school age, kids should be ready to understand electronic spending. If they receive an allowance, show your kids how you're paying them by putting money into their online account. When they want to spend physical money, a trip to the ATM to get cash will reinforce how real money can become digital money and vice versa.
