playing catch up today (dpp [day 21])

The only thing making if feel like Christmas today was wearing my favorite Christmas socks. I think our thermometer topped out at 73° today. Warm, windy, with intermittent rain.

anchored

My word for 2018. Anchored. To keep from drifting. Representative of stability and strength. Connected. Held. Grounded. Positioned. Fixed. Movable. Small, yet, essential part of a bigger entity. It is a standard by which to live; a goal for which to strive. Anchored.

Go. Be. Do.
