When we were growing up, one of the hard and fast rules of our house was that we were not allowed to say, “Shut up.”

Hello. I’m Judy La Salle, or what’s left of her as we approach the end of 2020! Welcome to my site, where I talk about whatever comes to mind. I have also showcased my three books in “The Scrooge Years Trilogy,” as well as the handbook, “Promises for Peace Officers.”

This post is about me, if you’re interested.

When I was in the fourth grade at Ashview Elementary school I had an accident that taught me the importance of always doing the best you can for the other person. I learned it because I was the other person.

Be careful when you wonder how or why people do certain things that you can’t imagine doing yourself. You might wind up doing them, someday.

Our lives have defining moments, and my year in Vietnam was certainly one of those.
