–Author Unknown
What kind of a morning person are you?
I have a writing friend who says she is definitely not a morning person. She is much more of a late-night-creative, who prefers to awake at the crack of tenish. I know another writer who is […]

Yikes! I’ve never been THIS old in my life!
But I’m determined to stay active as long as I possibly can.
And one of my favorite ways to get some regular exercise is to attend a turbo kickboxing class a few times a week.
