  Someone mentioned to me last week that March 15th was when the US went into lockdown for the pandemic. Another friend made a blog post talking about how if you feel off, it's due to a dramatic shift 3 years ago. It was interesting to read the comments. I am not sure I have felt off, maybe a little? But I chalked it up to the fact I have been on trips and it always takes me a day or two or three to readjust when I get back home and try to slide back into my routine.  But it also got me thinking of the last 3 years. I don't think I really blogged a whole lot during covid about my actual thoughts and feelings about being locked down and the never-ending bad news I listened to daily for a while.

My word for the year is  PIVOT Pivot .  I fought this word for a bit. I did not want it. I did not like it. It feels scary. It feels like big changes and I do not care for big changes, mainly ones that are out of my control. It kept coming back to my mind though and I couldn't shake it loose. So this is the word it shall be for me to focus on in 2023. The definition of pivot online is "to turn or rotate." There are some things in my life I need to turn/rotate I suppose.  This is my brain dump so bear with me.  In years past, picking one word to work on for the year, I wanted it to cover all aspects of my life. Social media, family/friends, church, work..you get the id
