Good Stuff

Trying to live in the moment

Sometimes we can pinpoint the moment, the exact moment, our lives changed. Sometimes it isn’t a moment, it’s a decision. One little, seemingly innocuous, decision that changes your life forever. And sometimes you know. You know that the decision is huge and will forever change the course of your life. When times get tough, I [...]

It’s all that I need

I was never one of those little girls that dressed up and played wedding. My barbies always had boyfriends, never husbands.
