So here it is, 4:30 a.m. and I'm rarin' to go! I always forget the good part about the fall changing of the clocks. That's the part where I'm an hour ahead for a few days and things are a little more under control because mornings are always m... Read more
Little bits of motivation
Tuesday, November 03, 2009      12 comments

This will be a shorty; I'm supposed to be getting dressed for work right now. Every once in a while, I find some article of clothing that I used to wear or never wore because it didn't fit right. Each week, I pick out a piece and hang it... Read more
