Posted on July 1, 2014 by Marla Rose

 Good morning! July 1st. I’ve been pondering what to write. This marks the one-year anniversary since I left my (paying) career. I think that subject will deserve a whole post to itself. We had a rain last night. Let’s take a … Continue reading →

Posted on August 31, 2012 by Marla Rose
