Today was another blur. I had commitments for breakfast and then again for lunch. Then I lost focus this afternoon and into the evening because my son's surprise video proposal finally went LIVE after two long days of waiting. I'm overwhelmed by the sweetness and love and joy of this surprise proposal. Tonight, I am FREE to FEEL. I feel all Continue Reading
