The old adage "there's no time like the present" was first noted in 1562 by John Trusler. Trusler was a compiler of proverbs and the full saying actually reads, So, "No time like the present, a thousand unforeseen circumstances may interrupt you at a future time".

Whew! The only way I know how to begin this is just to jump right in. This year has been hell for a lot of people including myself.
