Sweeping Up the Cobwebs

December 12, 2011

The last time I posted, I said I was shocked that it has been a month since my previous post.  Well, here I am again in the exact same position.  I’ve been traveling for work, my uncle passed away suddenly, and now I’m dealing with a major knee injury.  Life just got hard for a [...]

September 14, 2011
