July 2, 2017 1 Comment

Let me start today’s post by saying that I enjoy my job as a Registered Medical Assistant. I enjoy those I work with, and I enjoy the job in general. That being said, I still think of myself as that awkward 20-something fresh out of college with hopes and dreams of having this job or that job, but mostly I dream about being a publish and paid writer/blogger. Now with that being said, here is a list of a few of the jobs I’d like to try someday… 1) Actress… My husband says I’m a drama queen. I have been known […]

There was 12 of us total, including our tour guide, Lauren Quinn, who also owns East TN Tours. Lauren was well-prepared […]

It’s Memorial Day weekend, meaning we have a three-day weekend to rest, relax, and catch up with friends and family at a BBQ or out on the lake. It also means that I can catch up on some reading, including some links I love. I subscribe to several blogger’s newsletters and sometimes I get their newsletters once a week or sometimes every day. So this month, I thought I’d share link to some of their blogs… to kind of show some love and support to my fellow bloggers. Links I Love: May 2017 Round-Up The Stripe, Grace Atwood May 2017 […]
