Friday

Through several moves, houses, apartments, one divorce and two marriages (one wife, one husband... and still together) no kids... I've garage-sold many items I wish I'd kept.

My judgement regarding what was important to me THEN vs NOW... not so good. But at least I have the chance now to re-evaluate and connect with others online who can help to rebuild those things that were once important to me then and that have significance now.
