decade

I’m so late to the decade challenge I can’t even find the correct hashtag for it anymore. But here goes.

Between 2010 and 2019 I:

• Written a book
• Bought a house
• Celebrated my 20th wedding anniversary
• Realized someday is now
• Turned 40
• Aged into veteran fencing and won several national top 8 finishes
• Loved and lost two cats, and gained and loved three more
• Started this blog
• Had a health scare but got lucky
• Lost and made some friends
• Read a lot, but never enough
• Traveled inside and outside the U.S., but also never enough
• Been on a podcast
• Trusted a stranger
• Was reminded that you have to give up one thing to get another – I can’t do everything at once.

,..among other things. Some of these I wanted to do, some of these I didn’t, and some I never thought would happen. Some of these, all three.

And I still have so much further to go.
