It’s Tuesday. Time to write. Time to share. Time to open the page And here I stare … Cath, it’s okay. Just say, “Hey!” Maybe add “How’s your day?” Okay. Got it. “Hey! How’s your day?” … I’m not sure how to do this. Yes, you do. You do it all the time. One-sided conversations

I just finished writing my ‘About’ page. According to my writing app: “It was a bit bland.” Thanks for that, Grammarly. Nothing like a computer algorithm to trigger an insecurity alarm. I hope the changes I made meet with your approval?! And if not? Well, it is what it is. I will forever be a
