Just wanted to let ya'll know that the blog is not dead, it's just that I have not had time to make any posts as of late. This is an extremely busy, busy time of year in the retail industry and being an assistant manager of a retail store means I've been pulling 12 hour...sometimes longer days. So regular posting will continue when the holiday season is over and done and my hours get back to normal. Thanks for the understanding.
