Happy sharefest
. I love your mom’s quote!! My mom had something similar that I repeat now all the time–”sometimes you just have to put on your big girl panties and do it.” Ha!
Sarah recently posted..Try to spend less month in review // Part 2
Ha! Sarah, that’s a good one. Mom’s are pretty smart. I wonder what words of wisdom I’ll impart to my girls.
Haha Lisa! My mom used to tell people she raised us to question authority, not realizing hers would be the first we’d question.
Love your style!
Happy, cynical, loving, critical. Thanks to a fellow curmudgeon.
THanks, John! I love your style, too.
