Read MoreThe Waiting Is The Hardest Part
Patience is a virtue. Color me unvirtuous. It’s probably fitting I chose a Tom Petty lyric for this week’s title as I might be sounding a little petty. But I like to believe I say (or write) what other people…
Read MoreSpontaneous Blog Or Can You Handle Interruptions?
