I’m kicking myself for not loading up my kids and driving to Nashville to see the eclipse yesterday. I’d originally thought about driving up on Sunday, spending the night, and driving home after the eclipse; however, for several reasons, that plan never unfolded. I had the passing thought to drive up and back on Monday, but just didn’t follow through. Instead, my girls and I watched the eclipse from our front yard, and, honestly, it was a bit of a let down. Now, after hearing all the reports from people who experienced totality, I’m regretting not going.

I turn 42 next month. Time seems to speed up with every passing year. Wasn’t I 35 just yesterday?
