a lifestyle blog in honesty & authenticity in daily living
So, I am grateful. I had breakfast to eat today and a car to drive and a job to go to. My child is safe and warm this morning. Though I wasn’t gung-ho about the oatmeal or coming to work or the fact that my high schooler has to sit home alone all day and […]
