This is true

Originally posted 2022-12-01 07:05:05. This is so true. I look at people who are in my age group and see how some of them are and wonder just how and why they are the way they are.

To my loved ones…

I did and I grew

Originally posted 2022-09-30 09:15:16. This meme is so very true. If you have read any of my posts from the very beginning you know I have done things that I wouldn’t do today. Now you know I did them to make sure my kids had the roof and lights over their heads. But now is a different time. Plus… I’m not sure my husband would approve LMAO I think we all have done things we…
