I live in Atlanta but spend considerable time in Colorado. Specifically at about 7,100 feet higher in elevation. I learned that some people experience AMS - acute mountain sickness - and I have learned some proactive tips when visiting high altitudes.

I went from being 18 with $10 in the bank to having a customer care agent at Fidelity tell me that my 401(k) was one of the most impressive portfolios he had seen for my age (at 35). I learned so much along the way and am ready to share it with you.

As a child, I had heard about my Maw-Maw always walking with her friend Claudia. In Louisiana, they would find time to walk a couple of times a week. Even in the dead of summer and hurricane, you’d hear about Florence and Claudia “out on their walks again”.

Did you ever have a Senior Skip Day in high school? I did. And I actually went to school on senior skip day because our school theater director said we would be in trouble if we missed rehearsals. I guess I’ve just always been a rule follower.

I don’t remember ever being read to. That’s not to say it didn’t happen but I have no memory of reading with family or by myself. It wasn’t until I was out of college that I started reading.
