This seems a little strange to me, but the other day my husband suggested that I should put everything into my blog. Every to-do list, shopping list, etc. Anything I’m putting into my computer should be in my blog, he says. I’m a person who makes a lot of lists. I’ve even been known to make
When I was in high school, I was in a peer group called Snowball and one of our activities was to write “warm fuzzies” about each other. Warm fuzzies are kind thoughts. When we told family and friends we are now expecting a boy instead of a girl, we got lots of warm fuzzies, so
