I’ve learned that making New Years Resolutions just don’t work for me. I begin the year with every good intention… but things happen, I get sidetracked or I plain old lose my willpower.

I start first thing in the morning. If I can grab a quick shower and … [Read more...]

I always had good intentions, but carrying multiple electronic items just isn’t feasible. My smart phone has a rather decent camera on it that allows me … [Read more...]
