Do you remember 4 weeks ago?  When I shared that post that I had to close my eyes and “publish” and then resist deleting.  Also known as the time my…

*Disclaimer*  This is a touchy topic – I’m no expert – so feel free to weigh in and give me your opinion.   You know when something has been running…

Another tattoo has been added to my little collection. I guess it’s a bit like Pringles, in that once you start you can’t stop. But seriously, I’m sitting here with…
