I cannot believe a whole year has passed in what seems like a blink, but maybe that’s because we were SOOO busy. As I looked back in pictures, I realized we did quite a bit of traveling: 4 or 5 California destinations, Arizona, Utah 3X, Nevada 3X, Wyoming, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, and Colorado. We celebrated a granddaughter’s high school graduation and a niece’s birth of twins, as well as saying goodbye to a nephew and several dear friends. As an author, it was an exciting year of box set collaborations, and as a contractor, it was a whole year of retirement for Paul. We’re both pretty happy with the arrangement. Plus, our son got married and our daughter got engaged—their romance author mother couldn’t be happier for them both. Love is always the best gift.
No one can predict what 2023 will bring, but I’m praying for peace in Ukraine, and an end to: inflation, Covid, and political discord. And for my persimmon tree to produce fruit. (I over fertilized it last year. Bad horticulturalist Deb.😉)
