I turned 36 last week. Seriously, 36… and I’m just not vain enough to lie about my age. Mostly because I’m not noticing any new wrinkles or crow’s feet and I’m okay that the reason for this is simply because my face is just pudgy enough to fill them out. Gray hairs… nope. None of [...]

I’m turning a blind eye to the recent winter storm spring rain that has blown through here over the last 24 hours. Today it’s sunny and the skies are blue and clear, I haven’t gone outside yet but I have it on good authority that it’s really chilly for April. Blind eye… so yeah, I’m [...]
