I’m on my third cup of coffee for the day – it’s been a slow start to the day and the new year.
I am certainly in no rush today. Slow and steady is an ok way to be on a day off – I am worthy of the rest!
Besides – I have already created and posted the content I intended to do for the day so I am already winning my day – and the year!!!
As I am taking a slow stroll through my socials, I find a question-answer post that caught my eye.
It’s the type where you answer personal questions about your life then ask your friends to copy and paste on their page with their answers to the questions.
It’s not only fun but also a great way to learn more about all the people on your friends list.
I decided to give it a try and answer the questions here on the blog instead. I thought it would be a fun way to share some details about the things that make me – me!
