Yesterday was National Frappe Day! I celebrated by having HALF of a Spiced Pumpkin Frappucino. I’ve got a confession to make. My – no sugar diet is just not happening. Why? You don’t wanna know. But, I am going to go for a third attempt at this. This time with some help. I’m seriously thinking…
My last post was uber long so I’ll keep this one short. Do Not Give Up! You can do this! Listen to this fight song when you need to feel strong! And remember the Search bar in the upper right hand corner of the website if you are on a PC. It you are on…
Today, I’m hanging out with my friend, Sonya and her granddaughter, Melissa. Melissa is one of my Religious School students and her Grandmother is a mentor of mine. A mentor is someone who models for you the kind of woman you want to be. Sonja is a smart, well traveled lady who I respect very…
