Reunions, Memories and Social Media

A couple of weekends ago, many of my peers and colleagues from high school gathered together for a reunion. If I lived closer, I would probably have been there with them.

At the same time, I … Continue reading Reunions, Memories and Social Media

Positive Things- Day 2

Continuing this 5-day exercise in gratitude and positivity which I began yesterday, here are three positives for today: 1) Last night Allison and I met our friends Rebecca and Trip Sullivan at Izzy’s Ice-Cream.
