Sirius XM 80’s on 8 revolutionized my morning drive(s) taking different kids to different schools this morning. I sang, I danced, I smiled and my creative juices started flowing. Twisted Sister’s We’re Not Gonna Take It came on first and it got me thinking about writing a post where we gals all get together and
When I was a younger woman…ahem…I had some notions about who I would be and what I might be like when I got “older” (like maybe say in my 40’s). I imagined that I would have some things nailed down, frayed edges made smooth and dusty corners made tidy. Fear would no longer be a
So, who are you, really? Often when I think of this question, I would identify it more closely with younger people.
