SANITY!
This sure didn’t take long. Checking in on my first week’s accomplishments, I bemoaned the sad truth. We’re only eight days into the new year, and already, I am behind. Like most of us, I leap into January with lofty hopes, grand illusions, and confidence that somehow, this will be the year I figure out…
