I’m not a morning person, and I do not mean that to be I prefer not to get up early. I mean I am REALLY not a morning person. My mom said when I was little it was pretty much a rule not to talk to me until I had breakfast and woke up a …
Sometimes actions, words or events can be misinterpreted. Yes, I know, that’s a newsflash. Stay with me, I’ll get to my point…eventually.
