So, I did a thing. I just bought a 36 acre farm, with a pond and a little lake for my 64th birthday present. No plans for how I’ll use it. I just need space… lots of space to wander each day.
My husband is turning 70 this year and is certain that I’ve lost my mind.🤣

This is my hope for you for the New Year --that by your smallest acts of kindness, you will save an other's world.

Good advice.
My curiosity drives me to learn something new or develop a better understanding.
It takes all my time/effort to delve deeply enough to find accurate and reliable resources these days. No time/patience for shitpost opinions stated as fact or speculation. I’m avoiding those traps.

Proud Great-grandchild of German immigrants (father) and grandchild of Welsh immigrants (mother). My German great-grandparents and grandparents were discriminated and targeted for their language, cultural practices, and perceived loyalty with physical violence during WWI And WWII.
