I was having a rough day today, moaning about this and that related to our hopes and dreams for our book, Where’s the Map?

August 3, 2009

Beth and I have found ourselves spending so much time getting our projects off the ground and being so mindful of own time and energy that we’ve been forgetting the importance of trying new things, having adventures, and remembering that the original purpose of pursuing our vision was to have a little bit more fun in [...]
