No CommentsGetting a Grip on Chaos
In the midst of all of the changes Chris and I have been going through with the full-time launch of his business, I’ve been able to keep my head steady the majority of the time.

No Comments"The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on." – Louis L'Amour
Finally, I have done it. I have signed up, jumped on the train, and started my own blog. My husband would be so proud, except that he is asleep on the couch. While he was working on falling asleep during the newscast, I was lying there thinking about all of the things I could be...
