It's no secret that I live a crazy life. My mom tells me repeatedly (and has for years) that I just need to slow down, just say no, just give up some activities. Funny thing is...I think she is right. In a way.I feel just like the Apostle Paul...I keep doing the things I don't [...]

There is a distinct difference between my "writing" and my "journaling."When I refer to "writing," I am talking about writing for my blog, or other forms of putting down my thoughts by keyboarding them into a computer. Writing will be Part 2. Also known as...whenever I get serious about writing, I will write about it.Journaling, [...]
