Here it is. A full orbit around the sun and I’m back. What a ride it’s been from my 40th year to today, 41.

I made it! I published 2 novels, researched a third, completed a house renovation, learned how to make a website, learned to become a publisher, started French classes and became a soccer coach.

We travelled to New York City and the Dominican Republic and I felt like I had a summer and a winter  my honeymoon with my hubby. Thanks universe!

My kids are here with me this morning (strike day) and I’m feeling like everything is pretty wonderful in my world. My daughter just gave me a goldfish sticker. And we celebrated with dear friends last night, who gave me this pillow.

I am so truly blessed and so very thankful for the time I have been given to walk this earth.

And I’m so excited to see what this year brings to my life.
