The year 2020 brought us many things. Fear, guilt, a pandemic, oily skin, social distancing, civil unrest, zoom, craft cocktails, and so forth. It also brought us new words such as quarantine pods. The year 2020 also got us bringing back and feeling old phrases of yore. For […]
Well, some people woke up ladt Friday thinking that surely day 1 of the new year would usher in sanity and calm. A new day. We are now a week into the new year and we are still steeped in the craziness of the last year. It feels […]
My fitbit is something I might just let go of in the new year. There are many things to let go as the year 2020 thankfully winds down. I’ve been making a list. Fear needs to be left behind. Same wuth midnight snacks. And, my fitbit may very […]
