So, um, haha, meant to publish this last week. I WAS ON VACATION. Anywho. 2018 was a long year, but at the same time it was a very short year (like every year seems to be) it also was a year in which I felt like it really never stuck as being "2018" it still … Continue reading 2018 wrap-up, 2019 goals, and other end of the year commentary
