OUR WEDDING VOW RENEWAL ~ and 30 years of wedded bliss
Just recently I wrote a post about being married for thirty years and some advice about what I think has helped us survive thirty years. I also shared a project that I did specifically for our trip to the beach where we renewed our wedding vows. We just came back from a trip to the NC beach […]
ALWAYS HUNGRY ~a diet that finally works!
WARNING: THIS IS NOT A HOME DECOR ENTRY!! If you’re not interested in losing weight or eating healthy, back away slowly, turn around and run for your life!
