On Tuesday, I posted a bit more about regrets and my desire to learn from..and the move past…my… Read More Striving for No Regrets
Welcome, 2020!! I love beginnings. The beginning of a new week (yes..Mondays!). The beginning of a new project, a new chapter, a new season, a new month or even a new series.
