Twog Blog 12-27 Tom A

Well today is a transition day for me, it’s my birthday! This one is a particular transition in that I have hit an age where I can no longer imagine living to be twice this old so I must be past middle age. I’m

not quite sure what to call my new situation but it feels good to let go of
