Goals for July 2017

Summer is by far my favourite time of the year. Watermelon, sunshine and long hours outside – I love everything about it. I find that in the summer, I spend more time playing than goal chasing, but I do have a few things up my sleeve. Before I look to what I am setting out… Read More…
