Patience is a virtue
Possess it if you can.Seldom found in woman,
Never found in man. — author unknown.
Those who know me can vouch that I’m not famous for patience.
Never have been.

Lifelong Learning After Graduation
Last year at this time, My Favorite Domer was walking across the stage to accept his university diploma.
I was fretting over everything from the weather (which I couldn’t control) to what to wear (which I could). And somehow, the things I worried about faded into the background, Domer graduated, and flew far from my nest, off to the Land-of-the-North.
Where he’s thrived.
My Home Away From Home
Sometimes we’re fortunate to find a place we can call ‘Home’ even though we don’t live there.
