Things I crave…
1. Stimulating conversation. I love a good deep discussion about just about anything. 2. Fighting for what I think is right…some may call this conflict, but I fiercely fight for myself, my loved ones, my staff at work, my friends, etc…I’ve never been called a restful woman. 3.

Truthful Tuesday
1. The Great Debate: The toilet paper at the beginning of a roll is better than the toilet paper at the end of the roll. 2. Dreams are important: I recently attended a wedding at a vineyard and winery, now I want to purchase one. I now realize that I will have to move to…
