Lately I have been finding that mentally I feel like I am still in my 30’s with lots of time for life plans. Then I either stop and think about my actual age, or I’m carded, for what seems almost anything now, and it hits me like a ton of bricks. I’m moving along in … Continue reading Time

A good day.
Today has been a good day. Got to church at 7 to prepare for online services. Then after doing the weekly grocery run, I went for a walk in nature.
