Even though the holidays may be done for now, that doesn’t mean my festive and celebratory attitude has been packed away alongside my ornaments just yet. I’ve still got some post-Christmas and belated-New Year’s events planned! Each year when compiling my holiday shopping list, I break down my friends/family into two categories – people that […]
And just like that, I’m back in Massachusetts and back to work (and blogging!) as usual again after a brief but wonderful stay in North Carolina, with only a few travel hiccups that occurred when I was departing Boston.
