My first job I worked, was at St. Louis Bread Co.(or Panera if you want to call it the wrong name). I got paid $9.25 an hour which I thought was pretty good. I don’t know about you, but that meant whenever I spent money, I tended to calculate how much that would mean IContinue reading “Time=?”

Every Moment Holy
Life is busy. It always has been, nothing has really changed. It always will be too, but is it busy with the right things? That may be another topic entirely, but the busyness is still hard.

There will always be good days, bad days, and the beauty in between.
