I’m beginning with a beautiful Bright Spot today. I met Barbara and Al at an IHOP (a different one than I had Googled, how interesting) on my way to Pine Mountain. After I finished having brunch, a gentleman across the aisle asked about my foot. I briefly shared the incident and then somehow I ended up sitting next to Barbara and having a wonderful chat.

Well, the day finally arrived. Time to venture out into the unknown once again. After sitting for the better part of 4 months, it was a welcomed moment! Of course, my adventures will be limited quite a bit for a while longer…however, I have no plans to concern myself over THAT! I have been taking a very exciting online course over the last 6 weeks to learn the ins and outs of freelance copywriting (marketing…sales letters/packages). I am shocked actually at how much fun it has been since I have a history of sales aversion, butRead More
