Hippies Unite!
It came up in conversation at work the other day that I am a hippie.Not a dirty hippie, mind you. I shower every single day (but will admit to skipping a shower on the weekend from time to time) and don't generally wear hemp or whatever, but I am an openly yuppie hippie.I don't eat … Continue reading Hippies Unite!

Because apparently, for me, it's never okay to make a mistake, but for anyone else, it's totally acceptable, understandable, even expected. I just never allow myself the chance … Continue reading Choosing to think positively….
