So, August...where do I start. As we all know, August is like the Sunday of summer. Here I am running the same race, trying to keep the same pace and another summer is slipping by before I even had a chance to celebrate springtime.
I'll be honest. I get depressed about father time and his stubborn tendency of leaving me in the dust.
This post is going to be to the point and in summary because as we all know...I don't have time for this blog anyway. I'll try to list at least one accomplishment each day because surely we can all have at least one daily accomplishment to remind us that our day was not wasted.
Here Goes:
