Doing everything I can to avoid making my dream come true….
I'm in a good place as 2012 starts. No panic or dread looming as the year begins to roll out. Infact I have the calmness, peace and daily happiness I craved for the last half of 2011. I am hitting the gym, losing a bit of unhappy fat and taken up…
Ahh the 70’s, bring back Grammar Rock!
A trip down memory lane for anyone over 30. What any kid should be watching today to learn about language, much better than the money machine that is The Wiggles. Good honest education with a funky beat. Enjoy flares and the song, it will infiltrate your brain all day! VERB!
