I have become much wiser and stronger in my 40's and I am surprised that I have held true to being the same person I was in my 20's.
How do you stay fabulous?I meditate, hike, travel, go on adventures, read, write and go to festivals and ghost hunting. I love exploring abandoned places and going to concerts and theater. I just literally live life. I have learned to do more alone as well, which is new. I love exploring the world alone.
What would you do with the $40,000?I am a single parent, we lost my husband 4 years ago. I would use it to pay bills and move out of Baltimore City. We moved here for my husband's job but now that he is gone and crime is at a all time high we would like a single family home.
