Vulnerable
I wear my heart on my sleeve. I don’t have a poker face. But…I also don’t do vulnerability well. Last night I sent an SOS to my female, life-long, heart-to-heart friends. It was difficult. One of my friends called me … Continue reading
Crash…bang…boom
So, I crashed my car for the first time today. I think my track record is pretty good considering that I’ve been driving for 16+ years. Noone was hurt. I don’t react well to stressful situations. I am very proud … Continue reading
