Sledding Party with Mary (iPhone 13 Mini) “Life batters us. It does. We find out that we’ve lost our job...or someone we love.

1,2,3 for Week #21
Let’s bring this into focus. Starting to find my favorite spots to be outside now that we have warmth that lasts more than just 2 hours in the afternoon. I could write outside all day long.
