Friday Thoughts...
Today I am going to sit back, relax and let this day run its course. Before I get started I wanted to thank my lovely boyfriend Cameron for being Cameron. Honest to god truth, there are some days where I want to throw out 84,904 F U’s to the world but he calms me and puts me back in my place. He supports me like no other on this planet and I could never express the gratitude and love I...

A HA!
Yesterday while driving home from work I had my A HA moment! Let me rewind a bit…I have always loved photography and have always wanted to pursue it but just never did.

Ramshackle Glam: Easy Money-Saving Tip →

It may be tempting to pick up a $300 pair of boots…but once you realize that you’ll have to work 15 hours to pay for...
