Feb 1….the goal for February is to learn how to code. I landed on this goal for a number of reasons: 1. my husband can code and is one of the smartest people I know, so I thought this may give me a little peek into his world. 2. Even though I’m not in a Read more
Feb 3…You will never know what happened on Feb 3. My browser died when I was at the point of inserting a photo and my post went to blog Heaven to live with all the other posts from authors who did not hit “save draft.” Feb 4…On my way to work this morning I heard Read more

Just watch this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKL4lBlmeXE) because that’s what I did on day 23 and that’s all that matters. Feb 24…Work day and an hour Read more
