I've Missed You!!!


Ok, so as some of you may know (some of you may not). I took a small leave from my postings due to severe back problems. I am now out of the hospital, refreshed and as happy and healthy as ever. I am ready and raring to get on with the new year so I thought I'd start with my New Year's Resolutions.

This year, I want to: Protect my valuables, Pamper myself, Make time to be more creative and to Stop losing my keys!!! And to accomplish all of this I have to...
