As my cousin likes to put it, “New Year’s is a fake holiday. It’s just another day.” Which is true, to be fair. But even so, I always welcome the start of a new year. And I like to look back on how far I’ve come…
It’s been a challenging week, to say the least.
“Friday Finally” is trending on Twitter, and for once I am in total agreement with the masses.
