I thought I would never say this but I miss our Navy moves. Wait what? Yup I miss them coming in and packing everything that wasn’t nailed down including the trash. Or the time they moved us out of base housing and tried to take the refrigerator which belonged to the Navy. It was still […]
Letting my Running and Writing Go to the Dogs
May 16, 2023 by
Writing and running go together. No you don’t have to run to be a writer nor do you have to write in order to run but it does help. Well it helps me. In a weird twist of the worst timing ever we had to make the painful decision to say good bye to my […]
Finding Comfort in the “in between”
February 28, 2023 by
