A Life Inspired

Happy July! It has been quite the start to 2021....what about you? In the throws of working on my own health and wellness and finding work/life balance has been feeling a little like climbing Mount Everest - and I have not done that, soooooooo a bad comparison, but maybe better to say, seems insurmountable.  This month always speeds by for me.  Lots of important dates.  Family - grand-kids, nieces, Mom, and other family member birthdays and the remembering that my Mom and Dad would have celebrated their 57th wedding anniversary this year, if Dad were still here I wonder what they would have done to honor all those years together!  Well, he IS still here, in spirit...always.  Not just on the marked holidays or important dates.
