I'm back!

I’m reviving my blog! We are going to embark on a 3,275-mile road trip to move Natalie to St. Augustine, Florida in a few days, and I find the blog a better site for sharing photos and stories. So, if you want to follow our travels, subscribe and stay tuned.
 
I’m also looking for a place where I can write more deeply and thoughtfully, a place to publish some of my more polished essays. For those who don’t know, I’m going to try my hand at writing a book and, just like training for a marathon, I need space and time to work out. I didn’t realize how much I missed writing until I stopped doing it for myself for almost two decades. Well, I’m back. No one is obligated to read any of it.

This is my sandbox to stretch my brain and play with words.

I guess you could also say this is a small personal and political act to starve companies like Meta of data, attention and profit. I will still lurk in the background for work and because I do love seeing updates on friends and family. But my intent is to use only use Facebook and Instagram for the human connection without feeding the oligarchs. Enough is enough.

Stick around you want to spend a few minutes reading musings about family, leadership, empty-nest parenting, work, writing, and four submarines that sank in 1968. My feelings won’t be hurt either way :-)
