Look, I’m tired. Everything is a major endeavor. However, I have to keep on going. Now, I’m a young(ish) widow with a 14 year old son. I have a company to run, with hundreds of people counting on me to make the right decisions in this topsy-turvy world. […]
Today marks 101 days straight of writing. Some days have been easier. On other days, it’s been quite a struggle to string a sentence together. Lately, my brain has been a tad bit foggy. Simple tasks such as writing my name down on a clipboard at the radiology […]
