January 2023 was off to a good start. It happens to be one of my favorite months of the year, with things slowing down after the hectic end of the year and holiday rush. My family also has a lot of birthdays in January, including mine, so that’s […]
And that’s a wrap on 2022! I’m not sorry to see that year go, but there were some high points to it. Spending time with my family and friends, meeting some really incredible people through social media, and becoming really close with a few of the people that […]
