Thanks so much for the shout out Toby Hazlewood and your kind words. Humbled to be included in what I consider good company. :) I really enjoyed this piece. Lots of truth and common sense.
Writing is hard work, it takes time, and I don’t believe there are any shortcuts, as you say. It’s a journey, for sure, one I’m thrilled to be on — can’t wait to see where it takes us next :) All the best to you. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful and kind words. I’m glad to hear you’re a happy empty nester :) I’m a little nervous about it, but excited at the same time. Sounds like you have a good relationship with your children. That’s awesome.
Yes, it is what we strive for, for them to be self sufficient. I just can’t believe it’s here already :) All the best to you, look forward to reading your upcoming piece! :) Thanks so much for sharing.

I’m so sorry to hear about your dog.
I’m so sorry to hear about your dog. It’s hard to lose our pets -they’re like our family members. But I’m glad you’re out of the funk. I find writing is very cathartic for me, and hopefully it’s helped you too. Sounds like you’re back on track. I’m so happy the article spoke to you. :) Thanks for sharing!

Excellent!
Excellent! Thanks so much for sharing. As a mother of an 18 year old girl, my policy is not to sugarcoat things with her either. As far as I’m concerned, it’s the only way to go, and it absolutely has bred trust. Kudos to you!! Thanks for sharing your story.
