A look back at 2011- Christine

As a personal tradition I’ve always had a running list of resolutions that carryover from year to year. Each year I cross resolutions off and add new ones on. After the year I had in 2011, I felt I had outgrown my list of resolutions. So much was thrown into stark perspective, I failed to [...]
