reflecting on various topics

Which reminded me of a blogger who really influenced me a decade or so ago, who I found the socials for. I started thinking about book authors who really …
it’s me, hi There have been so many awful things happening lately, especially the hurricanes in the southern/eastern US. I really don’t have the words to say anything other than it’s horrific.
