I preface this by saying that I am very grateful for the life I am able to lead. Now that it’s warmer outside, I am determined to enjoy it as much as I can. Too often, it’s easy to stay indoors in environments that are refrigerated beyond my comfort to try to get one… Continue reading Project Enjoy!
