Five Favorites for Friday – Second Edition
By Fab Hub’s request, it’s time for another round of Five Favorites for Friday. As I booted up the laptop, I thought this in my head:

How I Spent My Summer Vacation
It’s back to school time. Whether you are a student or not, September brings with it the time-honored tradition of discussion how we spent our summer vacations.

Big Girls Don’t Cry…Or Do They?
I had about nine other things I thought I wanted to talk about today, but scrapped them all. My head is stuck in one particular place, and since it’s all I can think about, I’m going with it. I can’t decide if I’m angry or sad or a little bit of both. Probably that. Some…
