Me, at the end of decade #1 |
I guess the answer is a combination of "because I said so" and "we've always done it that way."
My 60th trip around the sun is almost complete. Yep, it's been a long time. The last milestone birthday came a year after this blog went live, so I thought it makes sense to gather those posts here as a lead-in to the next big day.
