Healthy Dreams | Personal Post

Pour yourself a glass of wine because I’m keeping things real today.  It isn’t uncommon to find myself staring off into space daydreaming. Day dreaming about Caynay, the what if’s, the things I want to accomplish, the comparison of how many weddings I need vs how many weddings I want. Then there are the dreams […]
