Continued from Iron Man Part 1 The idea of him or his kids specifically was too soon, but something had definitely gotten my attention in terms of being able to process my extremely inflexible red-light list; it had come up before in previous encounters, and I knew if I didn’t try to unravel it head […]

This is a continuance of this post – read this one first. —————– Jaime had no idea how to build a basket weaving class. She could cover many different styles and topics – where to start?

Day 1302. 225 lbs lost. I get excited every time I turn on the radio, and I hear a song that screams to my soul. I will play it over and over until it wears itself out, and by that time, I would find a new one. Last Christmas, I was listening to my favorite […]

LOL...Other times, I’m rocking a top ponytail in my
leggings with a cup of coffee in my hand with For King and Country blasting on Spotify while I work on various businesses with my best friend and two dogs in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
