I slipped and fell this past weekend. No broken bones but what the doctor calls a serious injury, I call an inconvenience. Pain is impressive. It can take up so much energy. How are you doing?
btw I love my husband. He is taking care of me, the kids, this house, this family. 🥰

My daughter said that she was not too happy that I was heading to another conference. She was in a good mood this morning and as I was leaving I said that mama is trying to change the world. And that I love her and was going to miss her so much.
See you all soon!
I am grateful for this experience and it is time to move on. I am free for the first time in a few years to catch up, read several books, research and recover.
If you want to talk web3, where to build, grants to attain, or have a new product or network, then I am happy to chat.
