For today, Day 4 of the Thirty Days of Me Challenge, I’m supposed to talk about a habit I wish I didn’t have. If only there weren’t so many to choose from. I could go for the low hanging fruit and wish I didn’t eat so many chips or so … Continue reading →
I just don’t have a lot of pictures of me and my friends. First, I don’t do pictures of people. I don’t have many pictures of me with anyone. I certainly don’t have many recent pictures. But, the prompt doesn’t call for a recent picture. So, we’re looking at a … Continue reading →
