This week’s prompt was a freebie, and something in me decided to get creative. The topic that I decided to go with is books I was surprised I loved. We’ve all had those disappointing experiences where there was a book that we were convinced we would love and […]
March was a month full of ups and downs for me. The weather couldn’t decide if it wanted to be cold or warm, my energy and motivation couldn’t decide if it wanted to be at high levels or low levels, and the rain really did a number on […]
