Liftoff is in three… two… one… And from that point, you’re off to your future. No matter what your situation or your age, when you start something new, there’s a kind of catapult that you feel, like a rock from a slingshot or like being propelled into a whole different world. And as in the

Can you all believe it’s August already? We are getting down to the last few weeks of summer. I can’t believe my kids are going back to school in less than three weeks. It’s unreal. I have my youngest, with her last year in elementary school, and my oldest going into a brand-new middle school.

Whew, wee! These July days aren’t messing around. It is hot, hot, hot! I could do without the humidity, for sure. Now that I have introduced shorts into my wardrobe, I really haven’t minded it all that much. It’s an amazing feeling the difference when not wearing jeans. I didn’t know any better. I didn’t
