Ok, so this might sting. I only apologize in advance just a little, because I don’t really want to hurt anybody’s feelings, but it needs to be said. Sister, if you can’t recognize, acknowledge, and appreciate that another woman is pretty, you need a little...

Things I learned today… I love it when I go to bed relatively early, fall into a deep sleep, then wake up in the night thinking it must be time to get up soon, and look to find it’s only 11:15 pm. Oh glory! Still...
