Sixty-eight days… Recently I have had a blatant reminder of a situation that once made me feel angry.  Not the screaming, yelling, red-in-the-face kind of anger, but the anger that eats you up inside a little at time.  It’s the worst kind, and I don’t recommend it.

Sixty-nine days… I had some photos taken today for the blog.  I’m not all that photogenic, and there is something about saying, “Hey, world look at me!” that makes me feel very uncomfortable.  Needless to say, once again I am breaking out of my comfort zone.  This whole idea of joining the blogosphere is a little zany for me.  Someone recently...
