Rembering Way Back Then…
Every now and then I have these bone chilling moments when I can’t quite believe this is my life. Usually things are whizzing past me so quickly that I don’t have time to stop and think, I just keep doing, keep going and all is well with the world. But sometimes… sometimes it hits me […]
