Who shall you be on Who Shall I Be Day?
Every day, I shall be someone who is grateful for YOU.
I will be whoever I wake up being on any particular day, but always me.
Thanks for being who you are, beth.
I’ll be my best self every day, Ann.
And the world is better for it, my friend.
Your bathroom is looking spectacular! But I sure hope that your home has another bath or shower, as the renos have gone in so long. I think you could write a memoir about your pandemic renovation and it could be funny, wry, or deep. Hopefully not tragic!
Thank you for your always spectacular support and empathy, Maureen. We do have another bath/shower and some day soon I will be somebody who has another new and beautiful one.
I would say I contain multitudes but that’s someone else’s line. I’m just happy to be here.
You do right as though you contain multitudes. Always something interesting that comes from a deep place

Write, not right. (I usually dictate my comments.)
I’m just happy you are all here.
