Emojis

Bloguarany 12 What emoji(s) do you like to use? Emojis are cute, but I rarely use them. When I do, it’s only on Facebook, and usually only on comments and on messenger, and then just a few. When I use them, it’s usually a heart or a smiling face of some kind. On messenger, IContinue reading “Emojis”

Gratitude

Don’t Assume

Bloguarany 9 What do people incorrectly assume about you?

Comfort Zone

Bloguarany 3: Write about the last time you left your comfort zone. I lived my entire life in Western Washington; three cities/towns within 100 miles of each other. And then suddenly faced the reality of having to move from one side of the state to the other. I have visited this city many times overContinue reading “Comfort Zone”

Day Tripping
