When I think about something I miss, the list seems to be endless. It grows and grows. The more I think about something I miss, the longer it gets. So, before you're reading this post until the cows come home, I'll stop thinking about it and just write. I miss my "old life" in Florida. Mostly the friends and the great restaurants. I miss my mom. Remember, she packed up and moved to Arizona ...
cute Easter items from Chasing Fireflies
This review was made possible by Mom Spark Media. Thoughts are my own. I received Chasing Fireflies items for the purpose of this review.

It's a short-term bucket list. I've been thinking about things that I would like to do one day, but that aren't feasible to do in the short-term.

Pet Peeves – or three things that irritate me!

My pet peeves are normal things to be irritated about. These pet peeves are things that others do that are deliberately annoying. If you're doing any of these things, please stop yourself.
