What I Wish I Knew Before I Retired
Way back in January, when threats of the 'new Coronavirus' barely registered for most of us, Leanne Le Cras asked me to write a guest post for her blog. Her focus was on what positive things I had been doing in my 'second act' (aka, life post-50). Little did I realize at the time, that my answers …

How much of the story can you fill in from this photo?
Over the holidays, I wanted to focus on presence. I took a month-long break from blogging and significantly reduced my time online.

Our youngest son flew home yesterday, …
