Always a middle child, always being goofy.

Still a bit goofy over fifty years later. It shows up in my writing and in life.

The hair, not so much.
Damn, I miss the thick hair.

I grew up riding our future hamburgers.

We raised beef animals for food. Ours were friendly creatures with names like Sir Loin and Patty that didnā€™t seem to mind us climbing onto their backs while they grazed.

Theyā€™d lick us with their long, rough tongues, which eventually ended up in our freezer, wrapped in plastic, right next to the ice cream treats.

I can never, ever eat tongue. For this and plenty of other reasons.

Dad loved it fried.

Time at the with my Little Sister.

Being a Big Sister mentor is such a gift.

Especially when she guesses my age was twenty-six and canā€™t believe when I reveal my true age. šŸ˜‚

I encourage everyone to participateā€”mentors can truly make a difference in someoneā€™s life. Including your own.

Especially when she guesses my age was twenty-six and canā€™t believe when I reveal my true age. šŸ˜‚

The job was far from glamorous.

But the uniform was probably the sexiest outfit Iā€™d owned up to that point, not counting bikinis.

But it contains kale.

Not kidding.

This figurine danced on Momā€™s dresser for as long as I can remember.

Now itā€™s on mine.

In front of a clock thatā€™s been out of batteries for years.

Time kept going anyway.
