From Sea to Shining Sea
It’s been a while since I caught you up on what’s been going on around here. I’ve been home for almost a week now from my big trip to Utah for the Young Living International Grand Convention.
Weddings & Water & Wrecks….OH MY!
We had several weddings to attend, each in different towns. “OK,” I told myself, “You just have to be prepared.” I got the clothes ready in advance and made sure the car was gassed up and cleaned out. Meals ready – check.

How to Add Trim to Make Your Shutters Reach the Ceiling
