Well, I forgot to take pictures…until we were outside a bowling alley at 8pm at night. … Continue readingThe Robot Love Quilt…Finally…
It’s that time again…resolution time… I know I’m getting to it a little late, but better late than never… It might be a little cliché, but the new year always brings about a sense of renewal…that there are endless possibilities…that you can put last year … Continue readingIts about time…
