2021 Hits, Misses, and More
As we approach Christmas and the 2021 year-end, I’m reflecting upon what was and what may be. Actually, I’ve spent the last 20-ish months thinking about who and what I want to be when I grow up. A mid-life crisis sparked by covid, perhaps. I don’t know. But definitely...
