A Sweet Blog...
From time to time, I write. Or I take pictures. I have started recording videos, more to push myself because I am uncomfortable in front of any camera. The views I express are random, subject to change, and though influenced by my experiences and environment, they are completely mine!
I hope you enjoy. Perhaps glean something useful. And as always, I do appreciate feedback. No, seriously, I really do! Most days...
