When I turned 26 last year, my mom called me (after she got a delicious chocolate birthday cake special delivered to my door- Thanks mom!!) and told me that 26 was basically the Wednesday of my 20’s. I was still very much in the  middle of my roarin’ 20’s. Well, I have now spent a week of the “Thursday Morning” of my 20’s, the weekend in sight but still not close enough… Read More

Before the New Year I wanted to get a quick D&M (deep and meaningful) blog upon reviewing 2015 and all that has passed. It was another year of transition, a little turmoil and a lot of learning.
