I've reached a new phase in my life--yet again! I began this blog seeking solace from a busy and ever-changing world. I got a divorce, a new job, and yearned for my former life of raising children and using my creativity. I started a new life in 2010--in a new state, with a new identity--and opened up to the possibilities and adventures that lay ahead for me. Now, another new adventure in retirement is unfolding. This blogging thing sure does help . . .
