New year, new decade. it doesn't seem to matter though, each year my new year's resolution stays consistent. Write more. Write daily. Share my writing. Have a voice, an opinion, a focus, a vision.

Fall Porch Goals
I wanted to be a home owner for two reasons: To own my own home. So I could decorate the front porch for fall. Seriously, that is only slightly exaggerated.

Our poor little AC unit in the bedroom absolutely could not keep up. We were lucky the basement stayed as cool as it did. But anyway, back to the fans. … Continue reading Ceiling Fan Masters!
