This last week has been a roller coaster for me. That is expected when you are trying to find a new life. And I do my best to roll with it. Impatient as I am, that is not easy.

Bloom where you’re planted unless…

Now that we are past Labor Day, it feels like Autumn and even though there are many restrictions because of Covid, the world is getting busy again. Summer is over, even though the calendar disagrees.
