By The Numbers

We are going to a friend’s 40th Birthday party tonight, and my husband and I have our’s right around the corner.  I’ve been reading some good writers who are *cough* turning 30.  It got me thinking a lot about the last 10 years, mainly because I can barely remember them. Didn’t I just get married? Didn’t I […]
