Happy New Year! I know it’s March but I haven’t “spoken” to you since last year. WoW! I won’t apologize. I can’t. There is no possible way I could blog and figure out life with a newborn. I mean, I guess there was a way but it wasn’t happening for me. In fact, I considered […]

Life is crazy. Life is busy. Life can get a bit overwhelming at times. I used to be somewhat of a “workaholic.” I did it out of both necessity and the love for my jobs. During the school year, I would easily work 10 to 12 hour days. I worked from 7:00-3:00 and then would […]
