Unexpected
Do you like unexpected surprises? Sometimes they are good, sometimes not. I actually had a pretty good one recently. I was thinking about getting something. Talking myself out of it. Telling myself I didn’t need it. Saying I couldn’t find one that I liked. Even saying it was too expensive. Have you ever done anything […]
