It’s the small things
| April 1, 2010 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Remember when I was complaining that nothing blog worthy was happening? Remember when I wasn’t concerned about my 50 because it was *just* a 50? *sigh* Summary of the whole sordid tale: Farley’s lame but it’s probably going to be OK. . . . At our lesson yesterday, Farley was fine in […] more
