What 2015 Taught Me

Happy New Year by the way….a little late I know.  I have been quiet the last few days.  Taking a Sabbath of sorts.  Just back from a facial with my amazing esthetician and friend, Charity from Katana Spa & Salon and am finally beginning to make some sense of things without turning into a big pile…
