2016 has not been without challenge. Granted it was easier than 2015 but it still had its hurdles. Through all of it I learned that positivity isn’t smiling when you are on the mountaintop – it’s standing when you are in the valley. I made a pretty big decision earlier this year – after toying […]

Well Beauties, I am endeavoring to take on a most challenging fete – NO BUY JULY. Over what’s left of July I will attempt to withstand temptation, dodge the shopping centers and refrain from shopping.
