Carrie, I'm glad you told me about the grandmother bit because, honest to Pete, I thought you were in your 20's. I don't know why I thought so, since you have SUCH depth. But I did. I'm sitting here, now, marveling. It must have been your lightness of being. How one accomplishes simultaneous depth and lightness of being, I don't know, but that's you. Now I want to know why you think you're an awkward soul?
ReplyDeleteYou really packed a lot into such a short list, Carrie. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteYOU are beautiful~ I love the honesty, I almost did mine this way. I am a mother, etc. but I took a different path. Yours is wonderful~
ReplyDeleteI love this, and can relate to so many of the statements.......Carrie, I LOVE the look of your blog - how did I miss this change? I must be going mostly to your other blog? The photo is fantastic...........wow.
