In the hours leading up to when I would officially turn 30 (back in 2016), I suddenly realized that all the long-term plans I’d set for myself had basically all stopped at 30. Perhaps it was because that was as far in the future as my 20-year-old self could think, or perhaps it was …
If you’re new around these parts, this monthly series is an exercise in brevity as I try (sometimes not very hard) to summarize each day of our month in one sentence. (Also, I’ve been taking a picture of my daughter every day since she was born, and this is a GREAT place for me to …
