  • I’m Feeling 52

    So, what does it feel like turning 52? Well, I guarantee it probably doesn’t feel like you think it does. I know for me it doesn’t feel or look like I ever thought it would. So many things are just not what our younger selves think. I turned 52 this past Sunday, April 12, 2026.…

    Getting My Blog Life Together

      I probably should get my life together and write some more blog posts. I probably should put all these ideas in my head and all these random Facebook musings into blog posts. It’s no wonder I haven’t grown my blog any more than I have. My ideas are plenty but the follow-through is entirely…
