As I come into this week, I am in awe of how crazy busy we have been. I mean, it was Tuesday and it already felt like we put in a full week and I’m done. I am not exhausted from being tired. I do have a lot of energy, but my brain is done. It is time for me …
Life: the journey you make for yourself
For the last couple of weeks I can’t stop thinking about certain things. You really don’t want to be in my mind, because there are normally 1,000 things going on at once.
