• Art+Wine=Writing…

  A few more days and my entire life is about to change. New job. New schedule. Freedom from debt…joy begins! After a decade in a job, I do well. I decided I wanted something more. For myself. For my family. To wake up each morning and be excited about a job again. After the joy…
