You know what complaining and negativity gets you?  Nothing positive.  I promise you that.  The more negative you are and the more time you spend complaining, the worse your situation will become. One thing I […]

Wordless Wednesday, I Just Got a Whole Lot Tougher

05.26.2010 by Girl on Fire // 36 Comments

I don’t just mean tougher looking…I mean tougher in general.  I know I am horribly behind on updating my blog, but I am recovering from a surgery that pretty much kicked my ass several times over. I sit here and I stay at the computer trying to get the thoughts together so I can blog…sometimes […]
