Embrace the Bacongal, and what ever I'm itching to say !

Yes, this morning the face looking back at me in the mirror is 40 years old.  Those years have flown by.  All the things I worried about day after day, year after year, most didn't happen, and even if they did, most were so small I can't remember.   The things I didn't worry about, that caught me by surprise, I survived, and thrived.
