I am just so sneaking this feature in on the last day of November. It is the rise of the holiday rush right now so things are picking up with work, with training and socially. Everything all at once. This time of year can get a little crazy so let’s catch up and I’ll chatter… Read More…
September Coffee Date
It was JUST summer but I am finally acknowledging that as September is closing out that fall is here and it is here to stay. I have some really exciting things planned for fall so I am not mad about it, I just am annoyed with the cold. So let’s get a hot cup of… Read More…
