For this challenge, I’ve been pretty relaxed about writing the post for this blog. As long as it was before midnight, I met my deadline. And I’ve done pretty well, missing the deadline twice in 87 days and having to do a make up post the following day. But trying to form a habit like…

No Matter Where You Go, There You Are
New Year’s Day is approaching, and with every new year comes thoughts of New Year’s resolutions and how this year will be the year that everything changes for the better. “New year, new me” is a common phrase seen across social media as people (me included most years) vow to lose weight, budget better, eat…
