It’s been a few weeks since I’ve been able to clear a path and time in my day, to my computer. My family is in a very busy season and it’s times like this I’m so grateful Chris Ann and I co-blog. This morning it’s quiet. I think all the running around we’ve been d ...
I'm very active at work. I work in retail, and my store is huge. My job is to walk guests to what they need. I walk all day long. I only work 6 hrs so I get a short break in the middle of my day.

If you read this blog much, you know I have a love/hate relationship with Florida. Remember my post about fire ants? Well, most of the year I can avoid them but not anymore.
