If you asked any of my good friends, especially those I’ve “grown up with” and am lucky enough to still call my friends (more like family) as an adult…my motto when I was younger–we’re talking like middle school era–was “I’m sorry!” I apologized for sitting too loudly, waiting in line for the hot bar, getting… Continue reading stop apologizing
SURPRISE! I’m still doing this thing! In fact I think about this blog quite often and I have about 7 notes in my phone with topics and thoughts that I’d like to get written down at some point.
