The Hiccup in My Brain Here's a little drivel to go with your shovel
Written by Cindy Patterson on February 25th, 2015
I woke up this morning different. As always with me in February, I begin to get a little moody. I’ve always blamed it on the lack of sunshine or of being outside less often. If I don’t watch myself, I begin to care less about the things that are important to me; I begin just passing [click title to read more ;)]
