    • Aint that true! Thanks for checking in Carol here’s to an amazing week waiting for us with new things to do. Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not fully begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday. ~ Eleanor Roosevelt. May your life be filled with many middays my friend
