Round is a shape right?
I’m so out of shape. If someone yells, “Run for your life!” I will yell back, “Y’all go ahead. I’m going to meet Jesus. I’m ready.” I saw my doctor today and we have a plan. We, like he’s going to eat what I eat and work at not dying with me. It’s not that…

What’s your Game?
Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you? Everyone needs an outlet that is fun. Remember playing pretend with your friends when you were small? That imagination and freedom to use it is a direct killer of stress and anxiety. For me I roll dice in table top games like D&D,…

It’s a Fact
